Who works indoors or outdoors?

I was lucky enough to have been working part time in my shop the last week which cools down to 22c at night. If I don't use machinery too much it doesn't warm up all to bad, maybe it gets to 27c max but then cools down again overnight from cool air from my basement coming up through the stone wall.

Yesterday was a different story, I work half outdoors in the sun and the other half indoors in a cool house. I think it was worse going back and forth with a huge difference in temp and humidity. Today I'm working outdoors this morning till noon about then shop work, same tomorrow.

I have a contract to start soon up in the lower Laurentians by a lake and if this hot weather continues it will be a blessing.

Enjoy your day and stay cool

It is actually too hot to build trails right now. I took the crew out of the woods. It's getting dangerous. We'll go back next week.

Big difference, you where born there and it's your home which means your body has adapted to that climate. We don't get it this hot much and not even every year, the last 4-5 year we might get 2 days in a row over 30c then quickly back down.

I'm actually slowly getting used to it especially after working 5 hrs in the sun today with no breeze and no place to find shade. I'm back home under the shade from my trees and even at 34c it feels good.
