Looks like the mid-to-upper-80s here for the next week. Currently it’s 88ºF. The 10-Day forecast says we might have rain on the 5th and 6th. Still, it’s better than Seattle. I heard on the radio yesterday that it might hit 100. Ten or so degrees hotter than here? Maybe.
Of course, come February I’ll be craving weather like this.
It has been consistently in the high 90s-low100s here for the last few weeks. Typical Inland Empire weather for July. It was late arriving, though, which makes me wonder about October. We could be in for a wet winter, which would be good for the water supply. Go, El Niño!
It has been consistently around 110 here every day. We’re fixin’ to break the record for the most consecutive days of above-75-degree lows, if that makes any sense. Plus it’s monsoon season, which means my evap cooler isn’t working with a shit. I’ve never sweat so much in my life. I am considering moving to Alaska for my impending perimenopausal stage of life.
Is that an all-time record for Seattle? I lived there for four years and I don’t think I remember it ever hitting 95. Hell, an 85-degree day had people talking about the monster heat wave.
It has been in the 90s in Central Arkansas for weeks. Rain today, and the promise it will continue through the weekend. Humid, but a mere 78F 3:30 Tuesday afternoon.
…well, no, people are probably too hot to riot. Still, though, my mother-in-law lives in Seattle and often will talk about how unbearably hot it is when the temperature busts through the 80-degree mark. I hope she’s lying down in the bathtub with a wet towel over her head or something.
It regularly hits the 100 degree mark here in West Texas. But, of course, we’re also well prepared for it. My sister lives near Sammammish, Washington, but I haven’t heard anything from her about a heat wave.
Everyone in the Pacific Northwest has my sympathies! I may be in West Texas, but I prefer your climate
All I heard on CBC radio this morning, it seemed, was how hot it was going to be in Port Alberni. It says it’s only 30 here now, but man, it feels hotter. Still, you’re suffering more.
You’ve got me beat. What is your air conditioning designed for? I think those in our area are based on a temperature difference of 20 degrees, meaning that at 100F outside 80F inside is the best it can do.
And, here in the northeast it’s been one of the shittiest, coldest, rainiest, crappiest summers ever. I’ve given up on summer. This is the third piece of shit summer in a row now. Fuck you, summer.
