Wow, 75 max in August, that's tropical!!!!


Bull****... we had numerous days above 80 this year and last. (global
warming??)
As a matter of fact I had to remain indoors to avoid the noon hour
heat on a number of occassions.



You want stinky hot in the Summer? Visit Hot-lanta.


You want just plain stinky? Visit Chesapeake Bay.

At least you backed up my claims against Canuckles.
Alberta can only dream about our temperate climate...


Hate to burst your bubble. Most of the worlds population resides in the
temperate climate zone. What makes your little island/peninsula so
special other than your unbearable taxes and lack of culture.

That's closer to Arctic than tropical.

I take it you are talking about Atlanta, GA. How is it hotter there than
in Jax, which is further south, toward the equator?


Coastal cities are cooler because of the effect of the water. Atlanta,
DC and Orlando all have the same problem. Heat, lots of concrete to
hold it in and high humidity without much to buffer it.


Coastal waters absorb heat during the height of the summer and release
it during the water. It's rarely as cold in our neighborhood as it is,
say, in Fairfax County, Virginia, because the Bay gives up its heat in
the winter. That's also the principle behind heat pumps with underground
water/anti-freeze circulation pipes. Atlanta and Orlando are two of the
most miserable, heat and humidity wise, cities I've ever been in in the
height of the summer. Actually, I never like being in Atlanta.

is 3 degrees higher than the average mean temperature in Atlanta, GA

I spent a lot of time in Atlanta and it always reminds me a lot of DC
with a drawl. The climate is similar, the population makeup is similar
and they even have a beltway..
May'retta is much like the 270 corridor.



I have to go to atlanta once or twice a year on business. I'm always
glad to be leaving it. I find it without much charm. The only parts of
Georgia I like are along the Atlantic coastal area.

The people you see in downtown DC during the day are from everywhere i
the world, and lots of them. I once followed a small group of Chinese
visitors to a Chinese restaurant I'd never been to before. It was a
terrific restaurant, right in Chinatown, and I'd walked by it a zillion
times.
