Thanks! This shows that even if a 90 degree day in 1950 equals a 93 degree day today, mail trucks have been stiffling hot for decades because of summer temperatures, and not a new phenomenon due solely to climate change as the reporter suggested.
You really are an idiot. An average global temperature increase of 3 degrees can mean 15 - 30 degrees in warmer climates.
You're an idiot if you think summers 60 years ago in Michigan topped out at 65 degrees.

I presented evidence of climate change, what do you offer to refute it? Nothing?

We also aren’t in a warmer climate so you didn’t read it fully apparently.
Donald Trump… In your guts you know he’s nuts.

The Resistance begins now.

This is a pro-Democracy account.

I never refuted it. I simply pointed out the idiotic way the author of the article used it, as if sweltering summers were a new phenomenon.

Name one area where the average temperature is 30 degrees warmer than it was 60 years ago.

Nice to see that the mail order med's are not being subjected to extreme heat that can alter the chemistry and potency values.

I remember as a teenager my brother and I went to an auction of old postal jeeps. He got one for 110 dollars and I paid 90 for mine. We used them as winter beaters and mine lasted five years. Sold it for two hundred.

One of the sales guys at your former station stole one in Chicago. He drove it for 5 months, parked it, and it took a year for USPS to claim it. Chicago meter maids don't mess with postal vehicles.
