So I am not sure how the weather is around everyone else, but today in PA it is in the mid 90's but the humidity is pushing it towards 100. I am at work and I have a sweater on, it is always cold in the hospital. I am heading out in a few minutes to soak up some sun. Maybe a tan? :)

How are the temps around you guys?

Hot and humid here in Kansas!! My parents have this silly rule about not turning on their AC until their anniversary (June 29th).....because their ac was a wedding gift......sentimental yet insane!!! :P I told them the other day I was going home to my own house and turning on the AC!! I had been staying with them to help get the crops in the field......I just couldn't take it any longer!!! I NEED AC!! I'm a wimp!

Hideously hot in Cleveland! The only thing getting me through this is thoughts of the big snowstorm we had in February and the hope for blowing snow again someday in six months. I think I would like to get a summer home in Siberia. The only thing I like about summer is the time off (I'm a teacher). The weather is awful. :angry:

Here in Central California it has cooled down today to the high 90's! It has been in the 100's and last week up to 110. I just about died two weekends ago when my AC went out on Friday night and the repair guy couldn't get the part until Monday AM! Thank God we have a pool in the backyard!

I'm with you Amanda, hot and humid outside in Pa, but frozen solid inside. I have a co-worker who runs around all day and when he comes back to the office cranks up the AC! I don't usally notice how cold I am until I think about it.

I was disapointed in the weather, espically at my parents house for the weekend. It's cold up there!

It was very cold up there and after that long ride there I could have used the warm weather.

Yep, it cleared up :). I take back my earlier post :lol: I do think it's funny (yet sad) that we can now often complain about the weather in sd. It's something different and new I guess LOL

It's a rare day that I complain about the weather in SD. A little May Gray here ... A little June Gloom there...it doesn't get much better than this, in my opinion. Love, love, love it ! B)

Maybe I am a weather snob :ph34r::lol: I just remember it being sooooo much better than it is now (full-on beach weather by early March, which lasted until November LOL). Oh well....

Hot and humid here in Jersey, too B)

I just came in from a doctor's appointment and, you'll appreciate this Amanda, Wegman's :D , and it's like a furnace out there. The humidity is high and there is no breeze at all. Ugh!

The thermometer in my gazebo says 90, but that's in the shade under a roof.

I have always wanted to go to San Diego and you have just given me one more reason! :) It's 96 with the heat index in NYC.

I do appreciate that :) Our store opens on Sept 16th, I can't wait :):):)

I am coming down to your neck of the woods in 3 weeks, time for our trip to the beach.

I am venturing out into the oven in 10 minutes, but I am heading to the pool for a bit. I love summer, even if it is hotter than all outside, I would rather that than be bone cold. :)

gf4life Enthusiast

Well the high 90's weather here in my neck of the woods turned into 107. Oh well. I am very glad that it is dry heat though...I've heard bad things about the humidity! I would love some rain though.

We have another hot day in store too, and when we left for work this morning the humidity was already very high!!!

I saw on the news this morning that it will be hot/humid again tomorrow, then the highs Friday and Saturday will be 80. Hope they're right!

Yes, it's cute. However, I tend to forget how cute it is when I'm sitting still, not moving, with a fan on me and am STILL sweating!! ewwwww :D

-Jessica....who is still sitting in her AC even though the temp isn't tooo bad today :rolleyes:

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Just checked the weather channel to see the current temp...89 but feels like 93. It's only 11 here. B) Who else thinks we should drop what we are doing and go to the beach!!! *raises hand* We will pit stop for some gluten free goodies and enjoy the summer..:)

little d Enthusiast

For Texas rain, rain, and more rain, with the high of 89 with more chance of rain. :angry::angry: Flash floods everywhere. I let my daughter play out in the rain first time to ever let her do that and these boys about 12 were riding there cano inflatable boat down the street because I was raining so hard and so fast. The creek or river behind my house was flowing fast and furious, Six flags rides are a little under water because of this same creek or river, and there is no end in sight because there is not any kind of front trying to push it way through either from the north or the Gulf of Mexico. So we will just wait and sit it out hopefully the weather will calm down a little. Sounds like Mother Nature is a little Gluten intolerant :lol::lol: with Texas

      So, you had both and endoscopy with biopsy and a colonoscopy. That helps me understand what you were trying to communicate. No, no! It never occurred to me that you were trying to mislead me. It's just that we get a lot of posters on the forum who are misinformed about what celiac disease is and how it is diagnosed so I need some clarification from you which you were so gracious to give.
    • barb simkin
      I had both the genetic genes for celiac.  My gastroenologist advised he also took a biopsy during one of my colonoscopies and endoscopy and advised I had celiac disease, along with stomach ulcers from my esophagus stomach down to my small bowel. I was shown the ulcers on the catscan and endoscopy report.  I also had polyps in 3 places throughout my large bowel. I was on a strict diet for months following.  I am sorry if I didnt define how I was diagnosed with celiac disease.  I am sorry if you think I was misleading you. I also had to pay $150.00 for the genetic testing.
    • trents
      So, I'm a little confused here. I understand you to say that you have not been officially diagnosed with celiac disease. Is this correct?  You have had genetic testing done to check for the potential for developing celiac disease and that was positive. Is this correct? I think you meant to type "gluten sensitivity" but you typed "gluten insensitivity". Just so we are clear about the terminology, there is celiac disease and there is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). They are not the same but they have overlapping symptoms. Celiac disease causes damage to the small bowel lining but NCGS does not. NCGS is often referred to in short form as gluten sensitivity. However, people often use the terms celiac disease and gluten sensitivity interchangeably so it can be unclear which disease they are referring to. Genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population has one or both of  the genes that have been most strongly connected with the potential to develop active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develops active celiac disease. This makes the genetic test useful for ruling out celiac disease but not for diagnosing it. A colonoscopy cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease because it doesn't permit the scope to go up into the small bowel where celiac disease does the damage. They use an endoscopy ("upper GI) for checking the small bowel lining for celiac damage.

      I did nor read the chocolate pkg as it was of fered to me and I ate 2 pcs. I do know that only very dark chocolate and and a very few others are gluten free. Most alcohols contain gluten. I have several yrs of not knowing my celiac condition as docs would not do the test. After looking on the internet about my sufferings I insisted on the gene trsting which showed positive for gluten insensitivity and a biopsy on my next colonoscopy that also showed positive which could not help the damage done to my small bowel. So I very rarely have a glass of wine
    • trents
      @barb simkin, are you sure the chocolate products are gluten-free and not "manufactured on equipment that also handles wheat products and tree nuts", i.e., cross-contamination? And what kind of alcoholic beverages are we talking about? Most beers are made from gluten-containing grains. Just checking.
