    The equator and its rain forests are much more pleasant. Plenty of shade and the temps don’t reach quite as high. It’s the tropics that get nasty. There was a stretch of the border between the US and Mexico that reached 115 this week. The summer I spent in Texas years ago broke a record for never getting below 90 for something like 45 days, and the apartment I had didn’t use AC. That was a nasty summer.
