"Everybody knows" it is the humidity that makes it feel bearable or unbearable
I got through the 40.something degrees well enough but my 2 year old son got overheated. Poor kid. My wife and I were happy that we had an old airco in the garage which we put in our bedroom and the two kids slept in our room on the floor for two days with that thing on (kids covered from the wind of course).
Anyway. A day of thunder clouds and rain and the rest of the week will be at most 20C or such. Weird weather...
We always have to be careful with children when the temperature is too high or too low. They are just too fragile. Paradoxically they are just nearly indestructible as well but that is a topic for another thread

Unfortunately yes. But I made it way further with this run than any other run before and now I'm continuing to play that run before I take another wack at no reload.
Why would a Chaotic Evil person want to do that? Unless Umberlee or one of her servants did something to wrong them, personally, I doubt they'd care much.
Plus, the fact Baldur's Gate has an Umberleean temple in the first place indicates that not everyone who's Lawful Good is Lawful Kill-Anything-Evil.
@HalfOrcBeastmaster
I kill the Umberlee Temple is Baldur's Gate in every playthrough I do. The only exception is maybe if I played TN. I can't stand them. Depending on my alignment it's either because they killed an innocent child (Varsa's friend) or because they demanded too much of me in exchange for the geas scroll that is supposed to safe my life.
My personal favorite is for my Chaotic Characters (and to a smaller extent NE characters) to ask for the scroll before I hand over the book and then to go back on my word and not hand over the book.
Then I kill everyone in the temple, keep the book for myself, save my own life and get a stat boost while I'm at it. I don't see how this particular behavior isn't extremely CE.
And if I'm playing NG or CG) then I just kill them instead of paying 2000 gold for Varsa's friend. I succesfully wipe out a great evil in the city, return an innocent child to his father, I don't lose any gold and hey what's this? A Geas removal scroll? I'm sure that'll come in handy some time in the future.
Lawful Characters? Same thing but I'm killing them for demanding tribute in exchange for the body of an innocent child they killed. My LG paladin or my LN wizard slayer won't stand for such vile behavior.
I've never played LE or TN but I suppose both of those would decide to go for the peaceful solution. LE to avoid slandering their own reputation and TN because they are only focused on saving their own life rather than trying to root out a temple that is just practicing their tenets.
Edit Footnote: Perhaps I'm portraying my characters as zealots in this case. The real reason is because I felt personally slighted by the Umberlee Temple for forcing me to pay for everything during my first playthrough and when I realized I could kill them with zero reputation loss I decided to come up with ways to justify it regardless of what alignment I'm playing. I hope that doesn't make me a bad person.

It makes me petty is what it makes me (holding a 10 year grudge on a video game character) I just hope nobody thinks less of me. As a person for it
Morality can get a bit weird in D&D games. Temples are generally considered sacrosanct in most D&D settings, where the deity's law holds absolute sway (think diplomatic embassies, except for a religion), and defiling one (whether that be by stealing from the building or its clergy, slaughtering the priests or even just trespassing) can and often does draw divine retribution. In most cases, temples of evil deities are not welcome in cities because of what they preach, so you typically won't see temples to, say, Bhaal or Cyric or Myrkul openly in the streets. Umberlee is sort of an exception because as the goddess of the sea/storms, she holds sway over anybody making their living off of the sea, so typically the need of fishermen, merchants etc. to appease her grants her temples a certain leeway to operate in cities, as long as they don't cause TOO much trouble.

I just realized I forgot to have pictures throughout the entire meme but I thought this still turned out great.
I like to get creative yeah.
Actually It was a reference to the meme with the Swedish Dog but I messed up
Saemon is more of a selfish neutral party than a villain.
