Humidity can wreak havoc on guitars/tuning and especially while playing at outdoor gigs. Not everyone here is enjoying "summer" weather though, so I thought a poll would be interesting...

It's been 100 or above for the last week or so. Normal temps are usually in the 90s this time of year.

Hi Mike.

June was pretty rainy.
The hotrod has been rock steady,
the other git's are plagued as usual
by the heat & humidity.

Stay cool. 8)

Cheers.

We're having a heatwave in Manchester just now and predicted for the rest of the week too. We're loving it, don't get this too often, over 80 today, nice. :D

It's been unusually hot for this time of year here. 100+ for almost a week with more on the way. Humidity has been anywhere from 16 to 65. Inside the temp has been a comfortable 66-73 depending on the time of day.


A rule of thumb I always go by with my guitars is: If you're comfortable so are your guitars.

It's been over 100 the last couple of days! When it's a dry heat, as it usually is in places like las vegas, it's ok because you really don't sweat much and doesn't feel too bad. But where I live (southern california) we always have humidity with out heat wave and it just kills everything!
