Is everyone else getting this kind of heat?

 

[jod5413]

Yep. I have friends in Colorado, Kansas, Maryland, Florida, Virginia, N. Mexico, Canada and South Carolina.

It is an exceptionally hot beginning of summer for many. We had no Spring, it went directly from Winter to 90 plus degrees. Welcome to high electric bills for having to run the A/C so early and so long. It sucks.

 

[anniemac]

Yep, been that hot in Texas since the middle of April. When you go outside during the day, it's like walking in an oven. Night's not as bad but almost. The only redeeming thing so far is where I'm at we are not in a drought yet.

 

[jod5413]

As early in the year that this horrible hot streak has hit, I can pretty much say with certainty that Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas will be in a drought this year. Probably more states than this, too.

 

[Swede]

I don't get it, are those numbers bad in any way?

When it drops below 90 here, I just wanna get on a bus to Phoenix. Or Tortuga.

 

[winbig]

Right there with you....

Today: 100
Monday: 97
Tuesday: 100
Wednesday: 100
Thursday: 99
Friday: 92 (finally!!! cold front lol)

Evenings are 66, 69, 73, 71 and 71 respectively.

I can't wait for August!!

And I'm in southeastern PA!! I'm sure this is going to be one of the hottest summers in a long time. I guess Al Gore was right, afterall?

Hiya: I love the heat. The hotter the better. It really is true. the saying of, 'Las Vegas is a dry heat". It can and does top 110' here. And you do not sweat. In the philippines, it rarely tops 85-90, but the humidity is so high, you sweat like a pig. I like to dry heat better. And in August, i just remember that it is OK, because in febuary, when everyone else is shoveling snow, I am not..................

 

[winbig]

You don't sweat in Vegas??? I was there in July a few years ago, and it was 104+ 24 hours a day. Even being a dry heat, I couldn't walk 50 feet without breaking a sweat. ...and I'm of average weight, not fat or anything..

 

[Brooklyn]

I live in a very small town in Arizona, and it was 115 the other day. No kidding. I won't even go outside during the day unless absolutely neccessary.
UGH.

I grew up in Vegas, so I should be used to this by now...


Tomorrow its supposed to be 109

Well hey Mommymachine in Florence, I live in Globe which is just over the hills from you! I think our weather has been pretty nice actually, a few hot days, but seems to me the hot as hell days have started a little later than usual. So may be a short summer here, I hope.

 

[Brooklyn]

This is my first summer here in Arizona. I am used to having hot as hell days, but 115 degrees and July just started...However the nights here are beautiful.

I love the heat. The hotter the better

My father and brother are like that...they love this. If I didn't look like my dad so much I would think I was adopted...lol

The only good thing I can say is, maybe my garden will grow this year!!!

 

[BingoT]

I love the heat too. (Outside that is)
I will lay out in the sun & work up a great sweat with my water next to me.
I work around the house outside better if it's hot.
Thank God for central air in the house.
We complain if it's to cold & we complain if it's to hot.
Have a Great Summer
~T~

 

[winbig]

I don't know what it is with my body, but I can hardly function when it gets to 90 and I can't get to an AC or fan or whatever. My ideal town would stay around 70-80 degrees year round. For those across the pond, that's 21-26.7c

 

[vinylweatherman]

It's warming up here too!

Not the 100 degree heat here in the UK, but we have been in the low 90's a couple of times, and bookies are taking bets about the all time UK record falling again this year. 2003 saw a verified 100 degrees F here for the first time, beating earlier records set in 1976 and 1983.

2003 saw heat related deaths over much of Europe, with temperatures over 100 Degrees day after day. In Europe, the humidity is much higher than the desert heat of places like Arizona and Nevada, and this makes it more uncomfortable.

The hurricane season is supposed to be very active this year, and has already opened it's account. This weekend saw severe gales in Scotland, which is pretty unusual for July, and there is another "dartboard" forecast for the mid Atlantic this week, before things quieten down to a Summer pattern.

The cold winter, and now hot early summer, is caused by a prolonged "blocking" weather pattern that has seen the UK have the driest first 6 months of a calendar year for over half a century, with drought here a possibility, especially in the densely populated South East.

You know what else is weird? Wimbledon didn't have any rain delays this year!!! GO NADAL!!! (I don't believe) That was the whole reason for putting on the roof, because they have so much rain, it was affecting schedules.

 

[love2winalot]

Hiya; Hey Winbig, the town for you then is Monteray Ca. I used to live there back when ft. ord was open. It is great, and the temps are right in that range, all year long.

 

[maxd]

FWIW, we've been running 30-35C (in Fahrenheit that's high 80s to mid 90s) in Paris for the last couple weeks. They say the rest of July will be the same, may up to 40ish C (105F) later in the month.

Paris is moderately humid and most apartments are 100 years old or more so no AC. 40C/105F is enough to make you want to climb in the freezer for a nice little nap.

 

[Mavin1]

We may gripe about the heat or the cold, but we are used to it and do have central air and heating, or swamp coolers. However I can't even begin to imagine how other countries that don't have this kind of heat manages. Like Maxd and VWM said, they are having high temps that is not the norm for them and these countries don't or never needed cooling systems. So they can't even get relief staying inside.
The only time here in Arizona when the heat is totally intolerable is when the monsoons come and bring the humidity, otherwise being in the dry oven is liveable.

 

[Mousey]

Add 80- 90% humidity to those 98 degree temps ... for us southerners it's like walking around in the bottom of a hot pot of water when you go out....

 

[lost2much]

I don't miss that humidity at all Mousey, know what you mean! I live in the SF bay area now and the weather is a big draw. It will get in the low 90s now and then, but no humidity at all. Gets down in the low 50s at night this time of year. Being from the midwest Indiana/Illinois, we are used to that 100% humidity. Here, if it gets in the mid 80s people are dying from the heat it seems! Looks like we are in the 75-80 degree days this week. Most houses here don't have AC and if they do it is seldom used. All this nice weather comes at a cost however, Marin County has one of the highest cost of living in the country!!

 

[BIGZEDBUD]

Its 106F (with humidity) right now up here in Canada. My igloo is melting !!!

Not just you southerners...in Massachusetts the humidity is always high...it sucks!!! Even cool days can feel hot.

kingman has been hot off and on. its a bitch caz then its 2 hot for the kids to go out.

Check out Honolulu. The temperature does go above 80F, but not above 90F. It is probably the city that is closest to your requirements.
