Springtime in Iraq

[skydivr]

I got this from a friend of mine this morning. Check out that temp gauge - that's 112 degrees F...in the shade. Amazing what you can adjust to.

 

[MC MUSTANG]

Well, at least it is a dry heat...

 

[JGoodson]

yeah the dry heat is cool get him to send you a pic in august that was the hottes month for us it was about 115 at 1030 in the morning when i would walk by the thermometer lol. The cold over there is what i hate its bone chilling...

 

[TruWrecks]

When you have temps like that, 50f feels freezing.

 

[boazalmighty]

ya, this would be unbearable* in dubai

 

[ks-waterbug]

Can't even image that, shade or no shade...

 

[likeapuma]

And it's not even summer yet! You'll need a different thermometer for the summer time, that one might not go high enough.

 

[flybybusa]

You're not even breaking a sweat!

 

[theskaz]

yeah the summers out there suck especially when you land out there and dont have a chance to get used to it first....

 

[MO-BUSA]

you know after seeing that i dont think i will ever complain again how hot it gets....

 

[Evil_keeps_me_young]

Well, at least it is a dry heat...

 

[Projekt]

It's a dry heat until you try to work outdoors then it becomes a torrent of sweat...

[gabusa]

Stepping outside is like getting hit by that wave of heat when you open the oven door to check on the cookies. But without the smell of cookies!

 

[Jiba6669]

Really appreciate what those guys do.....

Haha...replace the smell of cookies with the smell of a burn pit and stale port-a-johns

As few have said, it is amazing what the human body can acclimate to.. I barely break a sweat these days on my 105-110degree midday walk to the DFAC(Chow hall). Of course, that may be due to my sweat vaporizing as soon as it emerges..

Instantaneous Evaporation is infinately better than Spontaneous Combustion!
