How Hot is it? Your Town??

Central GA. 98 degrees on the bank thermometer, and it felt like about 80% humidity.

Bad Tom,

We,ve been watching that mess on TWC. You
had a go of it with tornados as well.

Hope all is safe.

About ten people were injured but no deaths. Very lucky. There are heavy rains predicted again for Thursday and Friday.
One town had a lake on both sides. The higher one was flooding over so they built a sandbag canal down main street and had five foot deep water runing down the street from one lake to the other.
 
It's been in the 90's here this week, but that wasn't the talking point....
I shot this video last week.....

west central alabama - 95....






















....but it's a dry heat :laugh:
 
We've finished the third of four straight days at or over 100 degrees. I went to a car show on asphalt Saturday. The porta-john must have been like the sweat boxes in the POW camps you see in the movies!

it was upper 90s again here today.(third day in a row) Ice rinks steadily declining in surface quality. Ski resorts closing slopes hourly... New Yorkers staggering around in heat-stroke induced stupors trying to clear the sidewalks of mirages with thier snow shovels.
Tomorrw is predicted to only be upper 80s and strong Thunder storms. oughta be intresting.
 
'k Barry.

No place to "DIVE!" out there.

...we get notice of hurricanes, BTW. :devilgrin:
 
97 and humid here in eastern Connecticut for the last three days, and today NOAA has changed our forecast to "hot".

Glad to know they're on top of things!

Try bringing in the first cut of hay in this weather - blargh.

had a very quick trip to Pittsburgh and back today. When I was leaving the parking lot the ambient temp indicator in the Santa Fe read 104. After I got on the highway it came down to 99. Both Pittsburgh and Philly are supposed to break records today, approx. 99 - 101.
What angelfj said!!!

I'm not cut out for this stuff.

I don't have air conditioning in the house or vehicles :cryin:

mmmm... me neither. But it only gets to mid 90's here. :devilgrin:

While we were still in Sewickley an older couple were moving into one of the apartments, "Hillsborough" Florida tag on their car... I asked him WHY he'd move the wrong direction. He said they couldn't take the heat in summer. I found that totally off th' wall. Took us another two years to escape winter climes.


...I lied. Diesela has A/C... but I rarely drive THAT car.

Oh, I had notice of that bad boy, was following that cell for 70 miles before it dropped.
Tornadoes are a gateway drug, I need bigger now, a Cat 3 should do nicely.

Stay cool in the NE today, I hope the power stays on for you guys.
 
No reports from Indiana? They are getting a soaking!!! Been watching this thread hoping all is OK with folks out there!!!
 
We had 96 in Ontario, humidity was horrible at 95%. We went for a short tour to Dairy Queen for some respite. I suggested we leave when the dark cloud was two miles off. I was correct, at time of arrival to home the huge drops came a fallin. Wife was impressed with my sixth sense. When you own an LBC we auomaticaly have the sixth sense.
 
Yesterday, and the last 3 days mid to upper 90's. Today an almost balmy 81.

Thats NE Ohio for ya.

I'm down here near the equator with 88*F and maybe 70% humidity.
Isn't that almost 5,000 kilometers SOUTH of you?

My goodness!!!

Been quite pleasant here in the Dessert of Central New Mexico. A little warm, but not unusual for June.

For those of you feeling a little heat this summer, you could always go Skiing in Aspen! in June!
 
It was 107 here according to the car thermometer when I got in it this evening at the station.

It cooled down to a balmy 104 while I was driving it. Yuck. Bring on the thunderstorms...
