Agreed. As long as temperatures are mild I don't mind higher dewpoints. I have experienced air temperatures over 105F with dewpoints above 75F when I lived further south. Real heat index values over 115F! Never again...

I don't miss humidity. I went for a walk tonight and it felt disgustingly sticky. I looked at my phone and the humidity was only 50%.

I know humidity as I lived in the Kansas City and Louisville regions in the past. Both those locations can get just as humid as being right on the Gulf Coast during parts of the Summer. Worst of all, very little wind to mix out the humid trapped right at the surface! Horrid

Let's see, would that be a Rant, or a Rave?

Rave: Want to set up a pump, for portable irrigation, started the project today.

Rant: Went to store #1 and asked for fitting that was 1 inch pipe threads on one end, barbed slip on 3/4 id on the other end. Guy said, "We don't carry those anymore."

This is a standard fitting folks.

Rant: Went to store #2 and asked for fitting that was 1 inch pipe threads on one end, barbed slip on 3/4 id on the other end. Guy said, "We don't carry those anymore."

Do they not know this is a standard fitting?

Rant: Went to store #3 and asked for fitting that was 1 inch pipe threads on one end, barbed slip on 3/4 id on the other end. Guy said, "We don't carry those anymore."

Hello????

Rant: Went to store #4 and asked for fitting that was 1 inch pipe threads on one end, barbed slip on 3/4 id on the other end. Guy said, "We don't carry those anymore."

Doesn't anybody put in sprinkler systems in this town?

Rant: Went to store #5 and asked for fitting that was 1 inch pipe threads on one end, barbed slip on 3/4 id on the other end. Guy said, "We don't carry those anymore."

Have they ever put in any sprinkler systems in this town?

Rant: Went to store #6 and asked for fitting that was 1 inch pipe threads on one end, barbed slip on 3/4 id on the other end. Guy said, "We don't carry those anymore."

Ok, I'm going to go get my gun.

Rant: Went to store #7 and asked the guy, "Do you have any 'We don't carry those anymores?'" He looked at me and said, "What? I said, "Do you have any 'We don't carry those anymores?" Then I explained that I was looking for a fitting and was told, everywhere I went that "We don't carry those anymore", so I thought maybe that was the name of them." He laughed and said, "Maybe that's why we have been selling the hell out of them." Took me over and they had "one" left.

Rave: Only need about 40 more parts. I sure hope things get better.
