Feel sorry for my Central Valley and East Bay brethren this week. Record-setting heat all over the place. Only getting into the 80s here in San Francisco which sucks considering no one has A/C, but at least it cools down enough at night to sleep. Probably going to be commuting to the office everyday this week to enjoy A/C.

Did you skip the part where I said no one really has A/C here? It doesn't really get hot enough for one most of the time.

And I've lived here 12 years and I've never experienced any sort of blackout. My Internet hasn't even gone out.

No. Did you not catch the gif I added? It was a joke about California not being able to keep the electricity on.

you should have air conditioning if you live in the city. the city is also usually much warmer than the suburbs. i understand the Bay area has a legit breeze and can get quite chilly, still there are always hot days, even in frikking canada.

Bro I've lived here for 12 years. SF is notorious for being cool all year round. It breaks 75 like 10 times tops a year.

When I lived in the bay area I had an out of town girlfriend that was coming to visit and go see San Francisco. I told her to "dress warm, it's always cold there" so she wore a sweater and it was fucking 80 degrees in March. Didn't help me look like I knew wtf I was doing that much.

Everyone pray for me that it doesn’t hit us as hard as some are fear mongering it might, wife and I are in Nova Scotia for family business and while it looks like our area might not take the brunt of it we are likely to be trapped in our motel room.

Looks like Ian is ramping up. Could hit anywhere along the gulf coast of Florida, and the intensity seems to be a crap shoot too.

We put up our hurricane shit before we left last week just in case. Although, I found out that apparently hurricane fabric doesn't do shit to prevent your windows breaking, which to me makes it seem close to worthless.

if you are in a low laying area that is prone to flooding, be prepared for a mess. higher elevation should just be wind damage and power outages. next month is ten years since Sandy fucked up this area. i lost power for a week. fucking shit is annoying.
