Chris1970 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I know I live in the wrong country considering the climate. Could have been different but we all make wrong choices from time to time. But I have learnt how to handle hot climate (environment) and it is actually easier than cold. Last year I wasnt sure how I would handle it but in the end it was nothing, just a bit warmer than usual in the signing area on the Friday otherwise it was ok.

Liv Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I'm so glad I'm not the only one who hates the heat! Humidity is the worst though. I'm glad to hear that it might be at least a little cooler out over the weekend with some refreshing rain, but like you say, Olympia acts like a greenhouse so the heat from Thursday will most likely be kept in for a bit. But, I got my handheld fan from last year. Going to drink plenty of water. And eat lots of celery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, they are loaded with anti-oxidants properties, gives you a cooling effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watermelon actually have 96% (asked my friendly farmer) and handle heat better. But the amount of water a fruit or veggie contains does not reflect if it is the best in hot weather/climate. It is a combination of different chemicals. Cucumber and pineapple are good too, and grapes and coconut milk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitewillow Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Ahh, the constant heat problem! I'm sure showmasters are doing everything they can, but with the old building and the thousands of people there's a limit to how much the AC can do. I'm glad the weather seems to be cooling down. I was thinking if heat waves during LFCC become a trend, I will have to come cosplaying as Red Sonja next time. Let the heat beat that chainmail bikini!

Going to buy all of that and keep it in my mini fridge in the hotel room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we are all reasonably lucky really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
