(4,644 posts)It actually wasn't as bad as I would have thought. Lucky for me it was low humidity (might have been 24% or something like that). I felt the heat on my back and I imagine if I stayed out in it I would've grown to regret it, but for the bit of time I was in the sun it was OK.
The previous day I was in Manilla where it was 98 degrees and very high humidity. That just killed me, I wilt in humidity.
