That's the ENTIRE problem with Southern California, almost perfect weather, completely ruined by too many people. Well...don't forget the totally unrealistic real estate prices either.

I can think of several reasons to leave SoCal.

101 with 30% humidity. Supposed to be 111 today.
 
Just did our monthly bag check while on the new shift. Real strong work other crews. I didn't know we are supposed to leave stuff in the bags that expired in 2008 or have the bags stocked enough to make a completely separate bag minus the IO kit.
 
So does being seen on a traffic camera that's then broadcast on the news count as an ice cream purchasing worthy offense?

I can empathize with that, it gets real warm down here on the west side of the Big Bend in Texas. And forget that, "It's a dry heat" foolishness, when it's 110 degrees it is hot. It's even worse if the humidity climbs all the way into the 20s.

I miss that weather. 100 with 100% here.

I've been on onscene.tv twice now without having to buy any ice cream lol (but then again we're not a fire house, if we were then I'd bet we'd have to haha)

It is an enforceable crime in this here EMS station.

Which sucks since I somehow became the PIO.

Do you guys have to declare an emergency and shelter in place when it gets that hot? :D :D :D

101 is nothing. All day units just got decent sized ice chests for water and to cool saline bags.

We all just cry a lot when it gets hot and humid

This area sucks for about 3-4 months but is absolutely amazing for the rest of the year. Sky is clear 99% of the time with the occasional thunderstorm. No snow and no tornados.

DesertMedic66, are you out around Imperial or Calexico?

About an hour and a half north of there. I go dirt bike riding in ocotillo well which is only ~30-45 minutes away from imperial.
 
We're SUPPOSED to be able to downgrade out of our button up uniform shirts and just wear the company t-shirt we wear as undershirts when it gets hot enough, but policy doesn't specify a specific temperature, and the call has to be made by management so if we don't get the page saying its allowed, we can't downgrade.....so far we haven't downgraded to t-shirts once this year for temp (we were allowed to wear the new company issued t-shirts only during EMS week though)

You would die out here.
 
They let us wear ditch the 5.11 polo and wear issued t-shirts when the heat index is above 95. That's been every day since early June.
 
I wish our agency would let us do that. The Propper polos we wear at work are.ridiculously hot

We wear our Class B shirts regardless of temp. It's been in the 90s, but no relent. And there was a near mutiny when polos were suggested.
