Minor Heat Wave in Nanaimo

[petros]

yeah you don't get much out there do you...my girlfriend is going into her second year out there...she loves the lack of humidity...well..except how dry her skin is, has to use special cream as her skin just can't adjust

I get out plenty and my skin is fine. I might smell of diesel from time to time. Hey, that's it! Maybe she should try CO-OP diesel?

Does anywhere hit 100%¿

Is that really possible? Our pool gets about that. With the water sitting in the sun it only feels wet going in not cool.

lol...I'll suggest that...diesel oil for the skin

this might help to explain it better:

Relative humidity measures the actual amount of moisture in the air as a percentage of the maximum amount of moisture the air can hold.

The secret to humidity. Don't shave.

I think so, when it's higher than that it's called "supersaturated". - That's when your skin is getting poached!

I'm fuzzy, it helps. Not hairy but fuzzy. I stay cooler in humid air than dry.

Wet coast.

Not Vancouver but up coast we often get rain so hard it bounces up under your raingear into your boots

In summer? Never when I lived there. Not when it was sunny.

I was thinking of places like the Niagara Peninsula!

It's a great place to be a slug.
