How hot is it....

[Historic NY]

Yikes I went out to install a rubber trunk covering in one of my vehicles. It sat in the sun for 5 minutes and it was all soft. Weatherman say its 94 and feels like 109. My thermometer is 112. I guess I better go get the magnetic signs that are baking in the sun. I'm in upstate 60 miles no. of NY City.

1. 88/feels like 94, high humidity in western PA.

It is brutal. The only air is too hot to breathe.

16. Orlando 93 today and will be until October most likely

[Freddie]

2. It's 96 here in Philly burbs

Weatherman says it feels like 110. The AC in my old car is dying. Luckily I don't have many places to go and can stay inside most of the time today.
My church is not air-conditioned and can be like a big brick oven. I predict low attendance tomorrow AM.

11. I have a/c in neither car nor apartment...

... just hoping there's no power failure to kill my fan.

[PasadenaTrudy]

4. Ditmas Park

5. Going to hit 109

Just another August day in Vegas.

6. Today is one of the few non-stifling days we've had, this summer

I'm in Flint Township, MI and this has been the hottest, driest summer I can ever remember. It has been in the high 80's to high 90's since June with very little rain. I've seen the heat index hit 115, more than once. Lawns are all dead, flower beds look pretty sad, and the farmers are in a bad way. I've kept my veg garden going because, fortunately, I have a well.

And, my air conditioning is out.

Finally, yesterday, we got more than just a brief sprinkle of rain and today's temps are in the low 80's, with MAYBE a little more rain headed our way. I'm hoping we will get a break from the heat because it is wearing me out.

7. 65 and raining in Maine

and we need the rain.

[Codeine]

8. "Only" 100F today,

but by Monday it'll be 108F.

Oy.

9. Coming off the heat wave, central Indiana is looking at 82 today...

and like 80 and 78, I think it was, for the weekend. Unusually low for this time of year; over the course of my life, this is the 2 week period most typically where it hits the 90s for a while. Of course, we made up for that earlier in the season. And we're in drought conditions, but not toooooo awfully bad. Not like the summer of '88. Good lord...

10. 61 degrees with a light ocean breeze in Santa Cruz, CA

High of 74 today with lots of sunshine. I'll be working on my tan later.

[LWolf]

12. Our high is forecast to be 96.

Which isn't bad, except for those of us without air conditioning living in under-insulated old places. There are a lot of those in this region. Since it's only hot for a couple of months, air conditioning isn't standard.

My place has a big skylight which I love in the winter. In the summer it lets in direct sunlight most of the day which raises the temperature quite a bit.

[suffragette]

20. 90 here yesterday and same today. No air conditioning.

Night time temperatures are the worst. I like my marine air cool downs and want that back.

13. It's so hot...

I saw a dog chasing a cat, and they were both walking.

It's so hot...

I saw two trees fighting over a dog.

14. Sounds like you're having a cool wave

Triple digits have been the norm here. That's not heat index figures.The relative humidity has been close to 100% BTW is your thermometer in the sun? That gives a false reading.

Today we are actually a bit cooler with increasing chances of rain.

[Odin2005]

15. A pleasant 79F in Fargo.

[annabanana]

17. It's so hot that

[In_The_Wind]

18. Currently (in New Paltz) it's 96 degrees but feels like 115.

[Warpy]

19. High desert is catching a break

It will be in the high 80s today if a storm doesn't come through, and storms are building just to the west so we'll most likely get one. A cold front sent easterly winds howling through the high passes until about 2 AM, cooling us off about 5 degrees.

It'll be back to the 90s tomorrow, but thankfully not the high 90s and triple digits of June and July.

[GulfCoast66]

21. Upper 90's Lake County Florida

But we have been getting our normal storms many days in the late afternoon to cool things down.

Over on the east coast it has been hit and dry.

July was our hottest on record. Mainly because it was drier than normal.

[ananda]

22. It's 90 here.

That's not bad for the middle of August
in Austin.

[Shankapotomus]

23. What, are we just a thermometer to you?

It's 97F, you lazy bastard.

Do you want an hourly update too?

[rurallib]

24. it'll cool down after the flooding rains

[raccoon]

[doc03]

30. Was 91 here in eastern Ohio today the humidity is brutal. Looks to be cooling

into the high 70s and low 80s this coming week. One thing about the heat, never cut the grass for 3 weeks.

[pinboy3niner]

31. 103° here now. But it's a dry heat. :)

SoCal high desert (North L.A. County).

Just find some ac and stay in it.
