In California, a few days is abnormal heat. A PHOTO
Residents of Southern California are suffering from record high temperatures - in July the thermometer rose above 111 degrees Fahrenheit (almost 44 Celsius), and in some regions of the state reached 118 (almost 48) degrees!

Californians with humor reacted to what is happening outside the windows of their houses and cars and daily publish a lot of messages and photos of the solar extreme, writes Buzz Feed. I just want, the publication notes, to raise my eyes to the sun and ask: “Who offended you?!”
But the matter was not limited to discomfort. A “monstrous heat dome” blanketed the southern part of the state, leaving tens of thousands of residents without power for several days. On Friday, the weather in many parts of California broke records. The University of California noted that the temperature of 111 (44) degrees is the highest since 1939, when the mark reached 109 (about 43). Riverside was the “lucky one” - here the record high thermometer reached 118 (48) degrees.
Let's see what people in the region think about abnormal heat?
“What a funny coincidence, I love it when this happens.”
"Needless to say, it's a little warm here, and Los Angeles is now so nicely decorated with all these little red entrances to hell."
“Many people in Los Angeles are spoiled by 75-degree (24 Celsius) weather year-round, which is why we make it so dramatic that we feel like we're living in the mouth of a dragon after he ate a jalapeño.”

"Like this, because #science"
“And we can’t use the drink cups because they’ve given up: the liquid is gone, it’s evaporated.”
“Even the animals are tired of this life”
“We understand your feelings, baby. We are with you"

"And with you, ladies"
In spite of everything, this heat showed some moment of human vitality and ingenuity. For example, this:
(and by the way, if you don't have a fan, we're sorry - they've run out)
Just look at this life hacking. Inspiring.
Or for this easy advice how to lose weight. Why pay for the sauna, if you do not even need to leave the house?
Meanwhile, people from Arizona and Texas more comfortably leaned back in their chairs and laugh, looking at how we try not to kill our neighbors for having air conditioners.

And to end on a positive note, remember - the glass is always half full (provided the contents haven't evaporated or the glass itself hasn't melted in your hands)!
