Damn, I was a couple of years off eh?

It was hot in the 80's too

That is June through September every year where I grew up. With 90%+ humidity pretty much every day since it is on the coast. Lived there until 10 years ago and got fed up with the heat and humidity and moved up by the mountains where there's seasons.

90%?

Man that would absolutely destroy me personally. That's the one that gets me the most. I don't blame you in the slightest.

I lived in a sweaty town and the one thing I enjoyed about trips abroad was the breeze, most of European countries don't have the humidity, just the heat during the day

Unlike this sweat box.

No shit, I took the underground to kings cross / st pancras yesterday and the mf was like riding in a big metal armpit.

I don't miss those days. Working in London in the summer I would choose to walk from Charing Cross into work.

Speaking of which classic summer train maybe you get AC on the train but it's winter and maybe the heat is left on and it's summer
That's if the train even has AC

Those "scorching hot red" areas look like 30 and below which is 86F. I'd call that a pleasantly warm day.

Apparently Europe is currently in the depths of hell with that color scheme, but it's all temperatures people pay the outrageously big bucks for to live in California.

You need to keep in mind that the vast majority of houses and apartment buildings in Europe don't have any air conditioning whatsoever. Temps inside can often rise to be almost as hot as the ones outside during prolonged heat waves and when its 85F in your home, it does not feel good at all.

these days I'd say 95% of the trains it is broken and in general they are in such a state that you wonder where the insane taxes we pay here are going.

What's wrong with that? I have windows open most of the time (not in the winter of course).

Try that in the German winter.

My favorite was taking the tube home at 11:30 at night and it fucking sweltering still. Only air you get is when a tube train is moving and usually it's manky air.
