We are experiencing a, for us, sudden heat rise in our outdoor temperature. It is over 70 degrees F (about 21 C). I know this is not a big deal, but for many of us it is beyond what we have been habituated to for the last 9 months! My life is in no danger, and I am enjoying the outdoors, but I have been dog walking every day and when it was 10 degrees colder than it is now I was already sweating into my short sleeve shirt and also my eyes.
I can also speak for the dog. She has never indicated she feels cold, and that includes down to -10 F (about -20 C) But chasing after a ball in this atmosphere will result in long term panting and swimming in whatever fluids are out there. She's a lovely 25 Kilo black Lab and many local dogs are similarly adapted. Even some of the small cuties.
