Castro Station Heats Up

Why is the Castro Station always an oven? I understand that San Francisco isn't always the warmest place but we really don't need to crank the heat that much. This morning I had to take off my jacket while waiting for my train - and it's always like that! I sometimes dress specifically for the station, which is so sad, but otherwise it is just too miserable! In winter, when you're wearing a ton of layers and your winter coat, boots and scarves it's even worse. Thank you Muni for trying to do a good thing by keeping us warm but only us Muni riders that are passing through Castro are "enjoying" it, for one, and for two, we don't need to be roasted at 100 degrees! I end up at work looking like I was just at the gym.

The weirder - or maybe the worst - part for me is that no one else seems phased by it. I never see anyone else frantically stripping down like I am. But I promise that doesn't mean it's just me feeling the heat. My boyfriend and some friends have agreed. I guess others are just trying to keep their cool or think they are the only ones feeling it and don't want to look odd. I'd rather look ridiculous and stupid in a tshirt and skirt during the coldest parts of the year here than bright red and sweaty while I wait and when I get to work.
