Jaffe: Is that rain?

Is that rain?

It's hot here. Really hot. The thing about heat in New York is it seems to accumulate during the day; today it was 97F (36C) at 3pm. There also were no clouds in the sky this afternoon, so I was surprised to feel some raindrops. Nothing serious, just some drizzling, but unusual because there were no clouds. When I mentioned this to a friend they told me that the water I felt was probably from all of the air conditioners keeping the high-rise apartments cool! Should we include air conditioner-induced rain when we discuss the effects of global warming?

I used to take a piss off my balcony; you'd be surprised at some point how my warn piss falling onto your head is almost refreshing when the mercury gets to 110.
