Whats the weather like right now in your area? Rainy, sunny, hot, cold?



Right now where i live, today its about 37c in the shade.

IN THE SHADE!!!!

I would kill for rain right about now, we got rain a week or so back for like, 5 minutes, and it was sooooo good.



Anyways, where you live, whats the temperature, whats the forecast?

Speaking of the weather, would anyone be interested if GameTavern could give you the local forecast for your zip code?

Not really. It would just mean I have one more thing to load. :(

Don't really care much, but sure, why not.

I just got back from driving around, and according to the car, the outside temp was 99. Dunno what that is in C though. It's really Humid too, so I'm sweating a bit more than usual. It doesnt stop me from going out and playing ball everyday though :D

I have zero intrest in having a GT weather option. What's next, sports updates? KISS

68 and Cloudy, AKA damn near perfect.

I think it sounds like a tacky waste of space. :unsure:

I've got the weather channel, weather.com, and I can look out the window. I dont need my favorite website to tell it to tell it too me to, and I dont need my favorite website to start running slower. (I'm on dial up)

[edit] Stoney C. took the words right out of my mouth.

There is no humidity in the desert, you need moisture for that.

Im pretty sure people frequently die at 153f.....thats like 60 or 70c..

and people frequently die from heat stroke at 50c.

I think you must be mistaken about the temperature.

So apparently your going to an areas that will be 70c, and wearing heavy clothing. There is no way you can survive the heat.

People were dropping from heat stroke left and right. Over 20 went down in the first 40 minutes, and this is from people used to working in over 110 degree heat.

So the war on Iraq is being foiled by heat? Lame.


You'd think they would make you guys wear lighter clothing, or like, stay wet or something, bring portable a/c somehow.

Billions are going into the miltary to take down the Iraqis ( i think) yet nothing is being done to stop the attack that is heat stroke.

So sad..


So in the end, Americas militarys biggest enemy is Mr.Sun. All smug up in the sky, raining invisible death upon you all..

Wear lighter clothing? Sure, as soon as you develop light weight clothing that can stop a 7.62 round. We deal with the heat by drinking more water. Not cold water mind you, hot water that tastes like ****.

And the war isn't being foiled, we're continuing to kick ass, despite the heat... and the cold.

The high here was only like 70 today. Its usually around 90 here this time of year. But it was hot a few days ago.

Cool. Fight on. I wish you luck.

I hope it rains.

Ah yes, it kind of skipped my mind that you were in Iraq. You must be pretty strong all around to be able to perform in that heat, but then again, you're trained to be. My weather has been in the 70s and 80s which is pretty damn good for this time of year. I'm quite surprised.

Well here in northeastern Ontario, it was fairly cool yesterday. Average temperature was about 19-24 C. Had a nice breeze too. We've also had quite a bit of rain, and some days have been 27+ C.

Where in Jersey are you? Its been raining a lot here, but not everyday.. its not really cloudy, a bit I guess... maybe..

Oh and not interested in the weather since my location (home, school, and other place I live when I don't feel like being home during breaks...) and another thing to load... YUCK!!!
