How hot did your area get today?

[El Jefe]

Supposedly hit 107 here. Fricken brutal when added to the humidity.

[Helen Keller]

91 but almost no humidity.

[blacksheep]

103 but it's raining with some hail ( marble size ) and the temp is dropping.

[davepool]

103 but it's raining with some hail ( marble size ) and the temp is dropping.

I wish it would rain down here, all we're getting is dust storms, um i mean HABOOBS...i like that word.

[American Rage]

103 according to the TV weather man. It's supposed to drop to the mid 90s over the next few days.

[rgmcl]

Had a nice breeze here at the homestead so it only felt like 106, in the shade.

[FunkyPertwee]

Only 91, but over 50% humidity. Tomorrow it will be 98 with 52% humidity. Saturday hits 100.

[cevulirn]

At work the thermostat peaked at 98* inside... was even hotter in the back room. Bad week for the AC to be broken. SHOULD, hopefully, be fixed so tomorrow shouldn't be too bad. inside anyway.

[imanaknut]

Officially we were 104, but I recorded 106 on my back porch. Not going to argue about 2 degrees once over 100!

And I will not complain about this heat, I LOVE IT!!! Now when the winter comes around and it is 20 below, then ask me. :smiley31:

[Tx Dogblaster]

102 & 80% humidity... The Texas Gulf Coast STILL SUX ASS in the Summer. I've lived here all of my life and it's still hot :losing-it:

[JTHunter]

The old records were 102 degrees F set in 1952 with the hottest June temperatures of 104/105 set in 1936 and 1952. :hyper:

We hit 108 degrees late this afternoon. The only good thing was that our humidity was more like Phoenix than St. Louis (~20%)!!

Go figure!

[weevil]

Not too bad today, it only hit 100 and actually clouded up in the afternoon.


Humidity was only 17% but that's never really a problem for us.

[Kadmos]

It was weird. Normally the humidity here really gets you, but it was a pretty dry heat today.

But it was still damn hot.

[Schuetzenman]

Yesterday maybe 98°F. Calling for 100+ today. Only good thing is the humidity is low. Bad news is plants are drying out fast, I expect major fires to start popping up soon if we don't get some rain.

[Cypher]

It was about 106 here. I was inside most of the day and didn't go out until after it was 106 and humid, it was like walking into a furnace room. I like going through the seasons so I can't complain.

[Solidus-snake]

Topped at about 103 here yesterday. Supposed to be even hotter today. I'll be hitting the lakeshore.:wootrock:

[Integratedj]

All of the shopping center electric signs in my area said 115* yesterday.
Not sure what the humidity rate was at, but the air was thick as shit most of the day yesterday.

Been getting lots of dust and a light misting the last couple of nights. Monsoon season needs to hurry up and start dumping the rain on us.

[El Jefe]

Lets see, our high today is supposed to be 104. The humidity right now is 46%. Ugh.

[Warthogg]

Forecast is for 105 today in Oklahoma City but the humidity is due to drop as the day wears on. Maybe down to 25%.

[FunkyPertwee]

Working on a roof fucking sucks today.

[samiam]

the only thing that can help with the electric bill in this weather is a clothesline, its a lot faster than the dryer yesterday everything was dry before the next load was ready to hang

[Helen Keller]

was 94* about an hour ago. Was gonna finish working on my truck but I'm gonna wait till tomorrow.

[davepool]

Working on a roof fucking sucks today.

Geez, i hear that every day :)

[FunkyPertwee]

Geez, i hear that every day :)

I'm a plumber (and a student). I don't normally hang out on roofs. :)

[mrkalashnikov]

Yesterday it hit 101 here, tying the record set back in 1971.

This morning after a big rain squall moved through it was in the low 60's, about a 40 degree difference in 24 hrs. Nothing like summer in Chicago. :smiley08:

[AKTexas]

It has been hot all week.

[alismith]

Eastern Shore of MD was projected to hit 97-98 today, but it hit 105. Just a little on the warm side.

And it's dry outside. We need some rain. Too bad Debbie went off the coast after she left FL.

[Helen Keller]

i just got up and stepped outside.

It's very hot BUT almost no humidity.

[Richard Simmons]

On my drive home at 5pm the display in my truck read 103

[slamfire51]

Record heat today (Nashville). 109 with 15% humidity.

I came in at noon after working and watering in the garden all morning. Too hot for me.

Yep, I'm watering my peppers and maters every 3 days right now. I need to start watering hostas too, they ain't looking to good.

Same here. I LOVE low, low humidity.

[Helen Keller]

Lookin like we gonna get hit with a few rounds of storms now..

Enter: Humidity. :evil-bbq:

[slamfire51]

As much as I hate humid weather, I'm thinking of doing one of these.
We are in a moderate drought.

RAIN DANCE

[Schuetzenman]

104 here in Hotlanta today. They say 106°F tomorrow! Damn!

[btcave]

75 and cloudy here. 63% humidity. NW Oregon. No rain to speak of.

[Penguin]

It has been really bad here the last couple of weeks. I am sort of dreading the fire arms class I am taking tomorrow. I hope I live though the heat.

It has been good for a laugh though, I saw a sign, Satan called he wants his weather back.

Did you get any of that 80 to 100 mph winds they were talking about today ?

[old Grump]

Roofers are supposed to start on my new roof but we have 100 degrees forecast for every day for the next week. As much as I want my roof I don't want them guys up on my house dying on me, the two brothers that run the company aren't all that much younger than me.

Nothing worse than hearing a 'THUD' as a 170 lb. guy rolls off the roof into the flower bed. :thud:

[old Grump]

Nothing worse than hearing a 'THUD' as a 170 lb. guy rolls off the roof into the flower bed. :thud:Before I hurt my back it would have been me up there. Worse would be waking up surrounded by flowers and everybody wearing a dark suit and looking sad. I purposely didn't put in my flower bed this spring and I removed all my bird feeders till after the roof is done.

[recon]

Since I work outside everyday and the older I get I'm starting to really hate summer!

[5.56NATO]

It'll be around 105 here today. I blame 0bama and haarp and in that order.

[slamfire51]

I believe we have broken 4 records and tied a couple in the last week.
102 here today. 101 tomorrow.

A strong cold front is due Monday/Tuesday. Hopefully some rain will fall and end this drought.

recon, I'm already at that age, and hate Summer with a passion.

[davepool]

Since I work outside everyday and the older I get I'm starting to really hate summer!

I hear ya, 6 more years and done with roofing forever.

[old Grump]

Was only supposed to be 104 yesterday and it got to 107 and we are getting it again today. However nice weather person peoples promises us it will get down to 91 by Sunday, till then we get to enjoy the sunshine and make a LOT OF VITAMIN D. I think that is a good thing isn't it?

[blacksheep]

105 right now, hope we get some relief this weekend.

[El Jefe]

105 yesterday, but that wasn't bad, Matt and I spent about 5 hours chest deep in 57 degree water.....nice! ;)

Today, 104, we fished the Meramec River from about 9:00 till 2:30, not bad, but not as cool of water so by the time I got back to the truck, I was fucking hurtin!

[slamfire51]

Another record breaking day here. 103.
Relief coming this weekend. Next week in the 80's.

Rain has passed us by everyday this week. I'm convinced we are cursed.

[slamfire51]

OH BOY!!!!
Just this minute, it is pouring rain. Haven't seen that in over a month. WOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[old Grump]

OH BOY!!!!
Just this minute, it is pouring rain. Haven't seen that in over a month. WOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Can you spare a little? The only greenery I have is in my gardens and the trees I planted this spring because each one has its own sprinkler hose. My well pump is getting a real workout this summer.

[slamfire51]

I'd love to.
I guess I'd better hoard all the water I can.

Sorry.

[JTHunter]

For the last 8 days, St. Louis has equaled or broken the old record highs, many from 1936. Our overnight lows have also broken records for being the highest "lows" ever.
Now the humidity is starting to climb making the H.I. worse. We MAY get a "break" on Sunday of upper 90's but the humidity will skyrocket.
OG - we have not had a "measurable" rain in almost a month and a DECENT rain in even longer.
At least this d@mn Zoysia has even stopped growing!

[imanaknut]

Been to 103 the last few days, with today and tomorrow expected to match that. The weather service is threatening this thing called "rain". It hasn't rained in my area since the first week of May. About the only good thing that has come from the lack of rain was the two weeks of the Indy 500 were perfect racing weather!

It's a good thing the leaders of this country want to use corn for fuel instead of food/feed. With the current corn crop about destroyed here in the corn belt of Indiana, I expect food prices to go up quite a bit in the near future. I keep hoping for change, but keep getting this sick feeling like I need vasoline.

This why I have a garden this year.

You missed the most important aspect of the lack of rain..............


NO GRASS CUTTING !!! :nono: :lets-drink:

[old Grump]

Gonna be a good one today, it was only supposed to reach 104 but it was 103.5 by 10:so AM and 94% humidity. June set a record for being the driest June this state has ever had. I'm parched and my cousin up north had to get the boat out of the water because of the high winds and heavy rains. We have bridges bucking from heat down here and they are worrying about the erosion from high water in the creeks taking out township bridges. If you don;t like the weather here just drive 50 miles and it's a whole different climate zone. Bad year for fireworks salesmen in my part of the state, all shows cancelled and nobody dared to shoot off in their yard or the neighbors would have beat them down to the ground for endangering everybody.

[Warthogg]

97 at 3:41 PM. Due to hit 101 about 5:00PM.


Wart

[El Jefe]

107 here at the moment.

But, Monday's high for the Roaring River area is 80! ;)

[Helen Keller]

98* as of 430

[blacksheep]

104 today, they say by Sunday will be in the 80's.

[imanaknut]

And the final number today was 105!!!!

[slamfire51]

A record breaker here yesterday (105) and another expected today.
We've had rain the last couple days, not enough, but any rain is good. Bad thing is the grass is greening up.
Breaking out the mower in another couple days.........CRAP!!

[MJ1]

85* and clear.

.........:wiggle-butt:..........

[weevil]

A very pleasant day 83 and cloudy with a good chance of rain.

We got some good rain last night.

[slamfire51]

This is our LAST day of 100+ degree weather..............I hope.

103 @ noon. Feels like 110.

[Helen Keller]

105 right now




BUT. we supposed to get severe storms all the way through tomorrow.

I just want the rain.

[old Grump]

Only did 92 today and it barely feels like 98 with the heat index so we are enjoying the balmy 7 mph breeze. Good thing it cooled down because my AC had a hiccup.

[El Jefe]

106 today, but cooler weather is coming, hopefully with some rain. Not for me so much, but for our area farmers. They, and in turn all of us, need rain in the worst way. :(

Amen.

update, 105 here now .

[El Jefe]

It's clouding up to the southeast (?) the wind has picked up and I hear thunder! :)

[imanaknut]

Weather service reporting 105 so far. My back yard thermometer which is in the shade is reporting 109, and it is usually pretty close to the official number! Humidity is way up as well.

[slamfire51]

We're under a severe Thunderstorm warning.
Just had a gully washer come through. Raining so hard, I couldn't see the road 30 yds. in front of the house.

99 earlier, 81 now.

Let it rain!!!!

[btcave]

It's a smoking 88 degrees right now! I had to turn on the central air. Ooh doggy! Supposed to be in the mid eighties all week!

:bigsmilebounce:

[weevil]

Not sure what the high was but it's 77 and cloudy now looks like we might get some more rain.


Seen where the Gov lifted the fire ban in the state.

[old Grump]

Only 95 today and the AC man fixed my Air oh happy days. Trouble is I have been down all day because I over did it yesterday in the heat. Tomorrow I will be up and at it again while I fumigate my house. Going to drive to the big city and get me some shoes.

[coppertales]

It was 74 degrees here today.....chris3

[El Jefe]

Pretty nice down here at Roaring River. 90 degrees, but the humidity is up due to yesterday's deluge. I'll take it. ;)

[Warthogg]

It was 74 degrees here today.....chris3
