You are lucky.

It sucks to sweat all the time and break out in rashes because of the heat.

My hair gets soaking wet and sweat drips in my eyes.

If I wear a bandanna to stop the sweat from dripping in my eyes, it just holds in the heat.

I have actually gotten second degree burns on my legs from the heat.

This did not happen outside, or in the sun.

It happened at a factory that I worked in.

It was diagnosed by a doctor.

I still have the quarter sized scars on my legs.

When I get over heated they show up bright red.

Was that your high temp for the day? That’s incredible.

68 and very comfortable here in NE Ohio.
