Heat and humidity...Deadly combination. - YorkieTalk.com Forums

In Michigan we're suffering from a heat wave of 100+ plus full 90% and above humidity. I hope that all you MI yorkie Momma's are keepin' cool!

It's sad, I wanted to take Gizmo to the outdoor mall, but it was just too dang hot!

I live on the 3rd floor & my air has been on non-stop...hate to see what that bill's going to look like!
Princess was at my parent's all day yesterday, in & outside, no A/C & I swear it took her like an hour to cool off once we got home. Other than a little playing in water on the deck I'm keeping her in.

We are having a heat wave here, too.

I took Gidget to vet for f/u today. A pup was brought in as an emergency suffering from heat stroke while we were there. Vet said to keep Gidget out of the "heat of the day".

The heat and humidity are horrible here too. Today broke an 90+year record. It was 96 with the heat index 105

Please everyone be safe and sensible with yourselves and your furbabies. It is dangerously hot and today is just the last day of May!!!

UGH, it's been bad here too! Yesterday the heat index was like 100. Jackson hates the heat, lol. He completely stopped on our walk today and looked at me as if I were crazy -- as active as he is, he'd rather be laying in the water somewhere.

Here in CA, where I live it fees more like it is fall weather. It is cool and windy. The wind makes it feel more cooler. This is odd for this time of year in the central valley it heats up to over 100 degrees fast. Summer is not here yet. Interesting that CA is below average temperature wise , and in the east it has it hard with the heat.

Gizmo is getting a kiddy pool from his "grandpa" in a few days. For days like this when we can all go in it.

Yeah I'm terrified to see my bill for the air conditioning this month.

In this heat, yesterday my mom saw a dog locked in a car in a parking lot. It's that time of the year, my luck is I'll get arrested for throwing a rock through someone's window.

Same here! I'd heard on the weather report that is was going to get crazy hot here today, so I turned the air on before I went to work today, so that ZoE would be comfortable while I was gone. I'd also put yogurt in her Kong & froze it and then my mum stopped by at lunchtime to give it to her

.

Taryn0405 · 05-31-2011, 04:51 PM

I swear Gizmo and ZoE are going to have to have a play date one day.

CouversMom · 05-31-2011, 07:26 PM

Wow, sounds like you guys are getting the opposite of what we have

We are having thunderstorms, cold temperatures and rain. Make sure to stay cool!

babiegurl · 05-31-2011, 07:42 PM

It is brutal here with heat and humidity. I am getting used to it now though....took a few years.

I could never live up by you...the cold is way too much for me!

The humidity is nauseating. As much as I can't stand the cold, I'd welcome snow right now. I'm boiling even with the air conditioner on!
