Common miss-conception. Because we are central to the Great Lakes we have very humid weather here. The temperature will "only" be 97 but the humidity will make it feel like 116.6. BTW@ normal for this time of year is around 80, not counting the humidex, which normally adds 5-15 degrees. When I was a teen I met a girl and her family from the southern States on the beach in August who had winter coats with them because they thought it might snow. ;D |

Title: Re: Hot, hot hot! Post by justin_o_guy2 on 07/21/11 at 07:06:29 & when I was in Odessa ( West Texas) I saw a college friend from Chicago walking in early winter, freezin his tail off.. I ha a coat I could spare so I gave him one,, He figured since he could play outside in Chicago sometimes in a tee shirt with snow on the ground,, he wouldnt need one ever in West Texas,, OHH he was wrong, wrong , wrong.. & yea,. Hot PLUS Humid = rough,, & so does cold + humid, cold hurts to the bone.. |

Title: Re: Hot, hot hot! Post by kimchris1 on 07/21/11 at 10:52:03 I haven't ever gotten used to the heat here. We don't get enough of it at a steady pace to get used to it. Now rain, and snow, oh yeah you know that is a normal. If you can't take either one, you need to find somewhere else to live.. Now when growing up in Fla, we lived out doors. I had a tan year around.. :) BTW, you could send us 20 degrees of that heat and it would be very nice..:) kim |

Title: Re: Hot, hot hot! Post by stinger on 07/22/11 at 01:53:12 Here in the North West temps have been really abnormal. We are like 10 t0 20 degrees below normal. We might have one complete summer without it hitting 90. I think todays high temp was like 68. |

Title: Re: Hot, hot hot! Post by Stimpy - FSO on 07/22/11 at 04:17:15 Yeah, and here in Germany we are having the COLDEST summer EVER! we have been stuck at 60Fh (16ish C°) for weeks! ...weird. ::) |

Title: Re: Hot, hot hot! Post by Wolfman on 07/22/11 at 14:23:57 It was 81 at 10 last night here. My thermometer says 104 right now and its kinda shaded...lol Our lows have been excedeing our normal highs. No end in sight for the heat and no rain forecast. Grass is burning up(and we have idionts going around starting hay fires to of all things. Good way to get shot!) Expect everything from hay to corn soybeans to take a big jump in price. Your going to feel the squeeze in the grocery store soon as well. |

Title: Re: Hot, hot hot! Post by kimchris1 on 07/22/11 at 20:30:59 Note that my area isn't even listed with a temp.. :-? We got close to 70 today. Tomorrow is supposed to be closer to 8o and Sunday even hitting 80..We will see. As then cooling down again to possibly 70. Very cool summer this year so far. We have only had 3 days so far of 80 degree weather. :( kim |

Title: Re: Hot, hot hot! Post by WD on 07/23/11 at 03:07:44 The news yesterday showed a rooftop temp in downtown Memphis of 180.6*F. Reading taken with a digital point and shoot heat gun. Ground temps were around 98-104 depending on which part of town you were in. Without the heat index. Night temps are so high that the bell peppers go from blossom to rotten without forming a true pepper. Need about 10 degrees cooler at night. But it is making the beans grow like gangbusters. Pond water level has dropped a foot since early June. That is pretty significant in a 2+ acre pond. Underhood temps got so high yesterday that I lost a cylinder on the mini truck. Thermostat seized shut, a spark plug popped out, and 1/2 the plug wires got fried (dual plug 4 banger). Dash warped last week. Just walked the beagle. 0500 hours, low 80s, but a nice little breeze. Tolerable. Have to work 1/2 day, temps projected to be high 90s with an index of 112F. A/C is broken in the Freightliner. Oh well, it IS the South. |

Title: Re: Hot, hot hot! Post by Z on 07/24/11 at 04:04:10 We had 105 Friday. I don't know what the heat indices were. I DO know that I took the bike to work and had a beautiful ride in and something that has never happened before on the way home. It was so hot that there was not a single even slightly cooler breeze on the ride home. :o It was like standing in front of a blast furnace. :o I have never been that hot and miserable on my bike before. The heat actually hurt my eyes. :'( It was only 100 yesterday and it threatened rain but rain never came. :'( It's supposed to be dropping into the 80's today but it's already 74 @ 7am. I love the heat but Friday made me think that that's what it would be like to ride in H@!! ;D |
