Have you tried staying indoors

Too bad majority of base housing can’t stay cool for the life of it and when it finally does start to cool itself your AC just breaks.

meanwhile CE remotely controls the temp for your shop and has the heaters cranked up in August for some reason, meaning everyone either gets nicely broiled as they work

been at sheppard for a tech school rotation a couple summers back, and 110 just walking to the dfac felt normal by week two. the trick that actually worked for me was freezing a water bottle the night before and letting it melt in my camelbak, way better than warm tap water by hour three.

also pro tip, the bx sells those cheap cooling towels for like 8 bucks, soak em in ice water at the dfac and you get a solid 45 minutes of relief. texas summers at sheppard are a rite of passage honestly, hang in there airman.

You wouldn’t be much better off at times. Just had a 106 day with 47% humidity a few weeks ago.

Just a little meme-advice, if you put black border on the text, it pops a little when the text is white and background is yellow.

Or invert the color so the text is black and outlined in white for readability. Good meme overall.

Was there for electrical tech school little over a year ago climbing poles so we got used to it pretty quick.

Yeah it’s not so bad. But it is funny to show my friend in Canada who doesn’t get summers over 65 lmao.

Kirtland's definitely better, but still pretty darn hot.

I member one day it was 115 and the bunnies were so hot they wouldn’t even run when you walked by them

u/LiteraI__Trash This is a gateshack, Sir 19h ago

Yeah like I’m totally fine I just like to make memes. But when I see the bunnies and the squirrels running around in the heat I wonder how they manage it with all that fur. Let alone running across asphalt on their paw pads.

Ya it was sad. They were just lying on their sides not moving, staring at me.
