How melting are you ? Here, Heat index 106.....

[dixiegrrrrl]

even the dog refuses to go outside.

[nolabear]

1. I don't think it's even 60 @#!%@! degrees here.

Seattle in June is just stoopid.

[marzipanni]

2. Like being in a hot tub under a heat lamp?

A fan and this...

[Angry Dragon]

19. Try adding a few orange slices also

[MrsBrady]

[dixiegrrrrl]

4. Somebody in Dallas was telling me today it was "breezy"

Yesterday, "breezy" here was like having a fan blow heat from the oven on us. The rain storms pop up then melt in the heat, nothing comes down.
This is ...JUNE? We "normally" have temps this high in August.

[MrsBrady]

5. I'm in the DFW area too

it's been breezy...aka...freaking windy...since March...
not every day, but many days.
My squash plants grew crooked it's been so windy.

Yea, it's like a windy furnace right now. Watered the f*** out of the garden this morning.
Will do it again as soon as the sun goes behind my neighbor's tree.

13. Dallasite here

If I hear the weather people use the word breeze one more time I am going to destroy the TV/radio! Just STOP! Guess they feel like they need to make it as if they still matter during the months of June/July/August when, really, all they need to say on June 1st is..it's gonna be boiling hot forever, see you the end of September.

I keep telling myself that at some point, probably 2 yrs (maybe) when my youngest finishes college and moves out, I am going to take a travel nursing assignment every summer anywhere BUT here. 13 week assignment oughta do it...June-August. All I can do now is look at the national weather map and dream!

[pitohui]

6. 115 degrees...that almost can't be right, can it?

what's causing this????

[pitohui]

8. followup-- heat advisory now cancelled

i think the report was wrong, temp is 94 degrees, can't see how the heat index was ever 115...anyway, they have just cxl'd the heat advisory

i'm giving it a heat index of around 99 or 100 based on feel...

[hobbit709]

7. Actual temperature is 104° here at 5 PM

[dixiegrrrrl]

9. I just found this on Wunderground, about Austin:

Near record afternoon highs are expected each day through Monday...
with highs expected to be in the upper 90s to near 102 across The
Hill Country... and from around 100 to near 106 over adjacent parts
of south central Texas. Afternoon heat index values will range from
the mid and upper 90s over The Hill Country to near 100 to 107 over
adjacent parts of south central Texas. The intense June sun... that
reaches maximum intensity on the first day of Summer... June 21st...
and the longer daylight hours of June will add to the heat.



Yikes!!!!!!!!

[rainbow4321]

14. Hate it when the 10 pm news shows the temp in the corner

of the screen and it still reads, oh, 96 degrees! That is just so wrong :( Makes me rip up my "go here or there tomorrow, do this, do that" list and replace it with "couch potato"!

[RebelOne]

10. Right now here in North Georgia, it is 70 degrees.

It was in the 90s earlier today, but a rain storm blew through bringing cooler air. But the weatherman is predicting middle 90s throughout the next week.

[Ptah]

11. 104 F here in Tucson

[SwampG8r]

12. i got a thermometer for work last winter

to make sure the kitchen stayed warm enough to keep the liquids liquid
now i regret it
it was 118 degrees in there today
2 days ago we broke 120

[dixiegrrrrl]

15. You work where a kitchen is 118 degrees??????

I gotta ask, what the heck do you do???
( but of course you do not have to answer if privacy is an issue)

[SwampG8r]

18. i am the grill chef

in a restaurant that uses a converted house garage as the kitchen and the house is dewalled for the dining room
one door no windows
it sounds like a hell but i have cooked for 38 years and the food is unlike any other
we doo every item old school long recipe no short cuts
as hellishly hot as it is i get a shiver everytime i put a plate in the window
dont feel sorry for me i am in my dream
and as a bonus when i leave work...no matter how hot it is....i feel air conditioned

[dixiegrrrrl]

20. I applaud you for finding your bliss.

And bearing the heat to do it.

:yourock:

[Raffi Ella]

16. It's going up to 95 today. and high humidity.

My dog is miserable too!! I have to wait until after dark to take her walking now. Poor thing, she has such dense fur.

She LOVED the unusual snow over the winter. We got 7", she was in heaven! I have the cutest pictures of her playing in it. Weird weather this year.

[pink-o]

17. San Francisco: partly foggy, about 65 degrees...

cold winds blowing from the north. I always feel so ripped off living here in the summer....till I read about how the rest of the country is suffering! It's no wonder people in the south are in such bad shape: who wants to go outside and run around in weather like that? You go from your air conditioned house to the air conditioned car to the air condition mall/office/movie theatre and probably never feel the sun all summer! So sorry you have to deal with that!

[dixiegrrrrl]

21. the 5 summers I lived in SF area, I bitched and moaned about the cold.

little knowing that on days like this,in the broiling South, it would all be nostalgia now.

[Rambis]

22. Feel like this

23. low 90s I hate it

[Brother Buzz]

24. First triple-digit day this year (I don't know what a heat index is)

I'm in the Sacramento Valley and we usually have many hot spells before this. Fire season is going to be a dozy after all the rain we experienced this year.

[Xithras]

30. Yeah...but it's a dry heat.

Hit 101 with 18% humidity according to the weather doohicky outside my home office window (near Modesto).

That's a nice summer day in my book :)

[Cannikin]

25. Tis 95 just northeast of Little Rock, AR, and it feels it. Storms tomorrow hopefully.

I should probably refrain from the "hopefully" part, considering I've broken my record for trips into the storm shelter for the year.

[grasswire]

26. I still have two blankets on my bed.

It's in the 60s today in the Rose City.

[SammyWinstonJack]

27. 102...heat index 105....

x(

[Brickbat]

28. None at all. It was 55 this morning and I think it hit 65 today, but the wind shifted off the lake

and it's pretty brisk now. LOVE IT.

[sakabatou]

29. 90

[WorseBeforeBetter]

31. It's supposed to be 99 in Raleigh, NC on Wednesday.

Ugh.

[Odin2005]

32. It's gonna be in the fucking 60sF in Fargo on Tuesday and Wednesday.

:wtf:
