I live about a half hour or so south of Ft Worth, I have a 4 car carport attached to my workshop, so I have no problem staying in the shade. Even so though I still limit my time outside. In the spring to wind down I would spend evenings on the porch stripping insulated wire (relaxing for me), but am hoarding it now waiting for it to cool off. Even with the sun going down in just a few minutes on the porch I am sweating my butt off. In the spring I had run out of insulated wire to strip, but now I have four 5 gallon buckets full waiting to be stripped. I really do not like to do the insulated inside, as sometimes I slice into the strands, and they can get into the carpet. I have done that and stepped on a couple of slivers, so no longer. Oh well, will give me plenty to do once the heat breaks (if it ever does).
