I live a block over from Broadmoor High in badden rouge. It rained 4 different times yesterday as I was cutting the grass.
After the first rain the air smell just like the Atchafalya basin.

Those temperatures are in Celsius and it’s ~15 degree delta (example, 82 vs 95). Not extreme but definitely not the same temperatures.
Right, but the point of my post was to show how they changed the colors on the map in the bottom picture to make it scarier and to try to sell people on climate change. The temps are pretty much the same in both pics, but the bottom one is propaganda.

I went to grade school in the 60's-70's, from kindergarten through 5th grade never had AC in the school and there were plenty of days in late August through September where temps were in the 90's ......they never canceled school for excessive heat or excessive cold.
We didn't have A/C in our home growing up or in school and we had to walk to school if we lived within a mile as the crow flies... no matter what the temp was.

Supposedly, according to “scientists” and “experts”, the average temperature across the globe has risen 1.5 degrees in last 170-200 years! So technically it will take another 9,200 years before the average temperature of Antarctica will reach 32degrees! Lol

When I was a little boy mom and dad bought a little window AC unit from Sears for their bedroom, the rest of us 9 kids had little box fans to help cool the rooms down at night so we could sleep a little better. The first house we lived in with a central AC unit was around 1969 but most of the public schools still didn't have AC until a few years later.

The real feel is exactly what temp it is...

Dad had a box fan in the in the window of the attached garage that pulled air through the house at night. We had a screen door attached to the door going from the kitchen out to the garage. It worked kind of like an attic fan and they were more powerful than they make them now.

It was 101 here today, hotter than a snake's arse in a wagon rut.

Born in Panama City and lived there for seven years in a time when almost no one had air-conditioning. Father transferred to Arkansas, where in July and August the raw temperature was between 103 and 107 every day. I believe that as a society we become so dependent upon air-conditioning that anything over 80° has become almost unbearable. Hence the climate alarmist.
