Deal with the heat

[primabella]

Oo I like the kong idea. Thanks

I want to give him ice cubes (he likes them too) but my Mom is afraid he might swallow them. Mickey does that a lot. He'll just take things and swallow them

It's been going up to 30 degrees

omg like 30 degrees? that's not hot thats like freezing.

I'm pretty sure she means 30 degrees Celsius, not Farenheit

The 30 degrees confused me at first too. lol. It was 100f today here.

lol, I don't know how to calculate faranhiet only celcius...I think celcius is mainly done in Canada...

How much is 42 degrees celcius in faranhiet? That's how hot it has been here lately...sweating.. Not as hot as last year, but still....very hot...

[lovemyshiba]

I don't know how to calculate it either--the only thing I know is that 32 degrees F is freezing, and 0 degrees C is freezing. It's only been around 50 degrees Farenheit here, and I don't consider that warm

42 degrees C would be about 105-106 F. Its gets that hot in BC? Whenever we go, its only like 70 or 80 at the most in the summer. When my cousin from BC came to visit us last July, it was like 95 degrees and he said he would never want to live here because of the heat. We only go to Vancouver and Surrey though. Does it just happen to be hot in your city?

It was really hot here 2 days ago, but it seems to have cooled down a bit. We had the A/C on all day. Primabella, do you have an A/C? If you do, perhaps Mickey would like that. We have central so the birds don't really notice it, but if we have the fan on on a really hot day, they just run to it and sit there all day. They LOVE the air! LOL

Edit: Hmmm.................I just checked the weeks forecast for Kelowna BC and its only in the 60s mostly, some days in the low 70s.

[Nomilynn]

to calculate the difference you take the Celcius temp, multiply it by two and add 30.. so 30 celcius would be:

30+30=60; 60+30=90 Farenheit.

And to go the other way, you (obviously) reverse the process

That's odd, because my mom said that it was up to 42 ther other day Unless she just doesn't know how to use the thermometre or it's broken? lol...

I don't check the temp, my mom does, because by the time I get home it's already pretty cool out...I just got home, and it's 31 degrees, and it usually goes down pretty far from during the day, so it sounds right to me

Kelowna is called one of the more "tropical" cities in BC, because even though we are on a lake, we have some of the highest
temperatures. It got up to 46 degrees celcius last year, a record for every city in the Okanagan, even Oyama which at the time held the highest temperature record. It's supposed to get even hotter this year I'm guessing that the greenhouse effect has something to do with it, but I'm not too sure

Not as high as Creston though....yeesh, try going there...the last time I went to Creston, my friend and I took cold showers with our clothes on and slept with ice packs under our clothes lol

[primabella]

I did mean Celsius. I was like, I better write in Celsius so they understand but I just forgot after

I'm in vancouver and it is definately NOT hot. It was actually sprinkling just a bit today and the last few days, it was pretty wet. It's rarely really hot in Vancouver, maybe just a few times in the summer but other than that vancouver is pretty damp and cool. My friends think I'm nuts cuz I LOVE the weather...iunno I think it's relaxing

[wolfsoul]

It rains alot in Van, lol. My aunt has lived in Central Van, Burnaby, and Langley, and she's always complaining about the weather lol.
