How Do You Beat The Summer Heat?

Canada

Here in Ontario Canada (i live near Toronto) it is about 30 degrees Celsius. I think it went up to around 32 today. Either way it was ho as heck, and very humid. I find in this weather the best ways to beat the heat are to continuously drink cool liquids (I had an iced coffee at Second Cup today), and stay in where it's air conditioned. I spent a lot of time today on buses, in the cafe, and in the grocery store. When I left the grocery store, I didn't feel like lugging all that stuff on a bus, so I took an Uber, which was also air conditioned. We have some gel packs in the freezer that we use to apply to injuries. I am not injured, but it sure felt good to put one of those on top of my head, while I drank a nice cold can of coca cola. So, how do you stay cool in this hot weather?

I am also in Ontario. And feeling the extreme heat and humidity. We took off and are spending a few days up north. The air off of Lake Huron has a cooling effect and there is a lot less humidity. Its a nice break.

Go out to Riverside Park: it should be cooler under the trees. Or just stick your feet in a basin of cool water. Personally, if I don't think about how hot it is, it really isn't that hot to me.

It is very normal we have this kind of temperature here in summer You can stay indoor to enjoy watching movie with cool drinks in an air-conditioning room or you can go out to have a swim I like outdoor activities much more.

Sipping water and other liquids every now and then helps.

Stay hydrated by drinking an adequate amount of water and stay home.

The sun is all year round here except when there are rains and storms. We only have 2 seasons. Our summer is done though sun is always there. We need to stay out of the sun and drink more water
