Today Tokyo set a record for the longest heatwave in it's history. I knew this summer was too hot. I love the quote about people wanting a taxi when they step out of a building - umm, actually, I want a portable air conditioner that wraps me in cool goodness even when I'm outside.
You may be saying, 30C is nothing... but really the temperature is hitting 37 or 38 every day, which is fine in dry heat. Add in 80 to 90% humidity, and I'm sure hell is cooler than it is here. To give those of you who live in dry heat a comparison, 37C (98F) at 80% humidity feels like 61C (143F). You don't want to know how hot it feels at 38 and 90% humidity. No wonder I feel like collapsing at the end of every day.
