Driving home from chrisgixer (4pm ish), the car, once moving for a mile of so, was reading 33C.  At home, outside temp currently 31C.

One of the OOF servers, ambient intake is 28.9C - keeping close eye on that, in case A/C needs to go on

Blimey  :o

Many moons ago....when I worked in the PC industry....we insisted the clients server room sat at 18C or else warranty was invalid on the servers we supplied...tho I must admit the servers were tested in environmental chambers before shipping.....the temp being ramped between -10C and +30C continuously for 24hours.......

Modern servers (and that one is a ProLiant gen9) are built to be able to be run a lot warmer, as large datacentres use as much power in cooling as they do in powering the servers.  But even so, that's uncomfortably hot.


Its now 30C.  I'll give it one more degree, then the chiller is going on.

Absolutely no idea. Warm enough for shorts, T Shirt, and cold beer and BBQ   :y

Not so hot that I can't be arsed to do anything. But also, the half metre plus stone walls of my abode are better than air con in hot weather.

On upside, this server has no disks in.

Back in the Compaq days, when the environmental systems failed in the datacentre where I worked, you could guarantee that tomorrow, you'd be changing hundreds of failed disks ;D

Doesn't have to be large....20 years ago....we had a server room with fours ceiling chillers.....admit aircon for the building as well....monthly leccy bill was around £600....

One evening some wags decided to turn off the breakers for the air con units (they were on outside walls)....result was in the morning all the servers had crashed.....server room was like sauna....Fortunately upon power back to chillers and a hour or two of cooling servers came back on rebooting.....

Wifey was sitting in the garden with her iPad yesterday when it protested it was too hot and switched itself off. Probably saved what it was doing, too.
Why don't servers do that?

It will. However, to keep heat down, all the other physical compute servers are already powered down, so the VM has nowhere to move to...

...which means when it reaches its thermal threshold, OOF (and the other shite running on the physical server) will just go offline. Which leads to grumpy people ;D.  Last time we had an unexpected extended outage was when the garage went, and people moaned at me ;D

The Swede reckoned it was 30-31c going down the M40 this arvo.

However I suspect it's a lying bar steward. BBC reckoned 27-28, which felt right. AC was pretty cool, but not as good as the omega after it's re-gas so I think it may be due a service.

Just been on a factory walk-round, ambient temp here is about 26, must have been 5-10c hotter around the injection moulding machine halls. I had on: suit trousers and shirt, cotton coverall coat, high vis tabbard, hair net, padded baseball cap and safety boots.

30mins in there and I couldn't have have been wetter if I'd spent the time under a hose  :o

I've now retreated back to the air conditioned office and I won't be coming out until Thursday!  ;D

General breakdown in the company. The machine cooling system failed due over temperature. All machines stopped.  I changed 1000 L hot water into cold water and I could start the cooling system again. The molding injector machines will need some hours to cool down. It will be a very long hot evening. Still 31°C outside....

20 degrees and raining here... Always takes me back to a particular moment with a particular girl... (https://youtu.be/MszXx_uSDWY)

Bloody rain.. it hasn't stopped since yesterday, here. My other half said "I like this weather!"  :'( to which I responded "but how can I put the roof down in this weather?". I got that "Good, it won't mess up my hair!" look  ;D

Funny how things evoke memories, though. James Blunt's "Goodbye my Lover" alwasy reminds me of an ex who gave me that album before she became an ex..

Hold on while I get all misty eyed and nostalgic, would you? ;D

Just back from a week's holiday with the outlaws inlaws, average 40degC with 50degC in sun. Very enjoyable, although sweated a bit when very high humidity followed by the mother of all thunderstorms. 24 hours later ground was like a dustbowl again!

I agree with you  :y

However it depends of your definition of winter..  :-\

Mine was September sometime last year and it ended end of May this year  ::) ;D

Ive not had the heating on for just about a month now  ::) ;D

Berlin flooded! Up to 250 l/m2 rain in two days. :o

Here deepdown southwest the weather is more comfortable. Still 25°C, most sunny and a moderate western wind.

Optimal conditions to work on the Omega. I changed the left fog light. Glass, holder and adjustment mechanism were broken. The bumper has to by removed for that. 90 minutes work  :)

You cannot reliably measure heat in the sun only in the shade.

I am a happy bunny today as the air con on our mobile greenhouse is fixed. 145 euros for repaired  connecting pipe ( new flexible section between existing metal ends) and regas. Just in time for Temps to go back up next week.

Outside sender was claiming 30C at midday.  So brought sensor in and stood it by main unit, within 20 mins was within 0.1C of main unit.

Not sure way it was reading 30C earlier - whilst hot, wasn't that hot IMHO...

If it gets warm and I park up after a good drive, the sensor on my astra has been known to read 43°C.  ;D
Drops down once I get going, so it's obvious heat from the rad.

Oh STEMO ! I read out the MID after parking in the shadow for 19 hours in my garage yard. Omegas sensor is always in good agreement to the local official weather station DWD (German Weather Digest) 10805, Lahr airport. (+/- 2K, that is the normal local temperature fluctuation)

I agree, but in the 'unreliable sun temperture' last week I ended up with an uncouth 'US Trumpkin redneck', after applying 15 factor, but worth it from the squeals of delight from my young daughter where I took her kite flying as it climbed up high in the thermals. :y :y :y IMO every child should fly a kite. 8) 8) 8)

STEMO comes across as a sad deprived Scouser who was too busy playing 'robin' to ever fly a kite, his only consolation from no longer any 'robin' is to own a whippet 'before you notice'! :P :P :P
