We've been breaking records all over the place here in Oklahoma. Also, I have to drive a lot and the AC in my truck doesn't work. I hate summer in the first place but this is ridiculous.

Anyone else having crazy heat this year?

I've been having more of a weird lack of heat. This area of Idaho is usually pretty hot by now... and it's not.

It's been pretty hot in my area of Pennsylvania latley. If it's not intense heat it seems to be hot rain and thunderstorms. In all honestly I'd rather just deal with the rainless heat because I'm afraid of thunder and lightning. We broke a record here a few weeks ago I think, but I haven't really been paying attention. I don't think it's gotten over a 100 here yet thank goodness, it feels like every summer just gets hotter and hotter! Though it's probably nowhere near as bad here as it is in other places. All in all I handle the heat well enough I suppose.

So far the south of England's had an unusually cool and wet summer for the most part. Though even a hot spell here wouldn't match the temperatures it sounds like you've been having from that link.

I think the only time I've experienced something like (well, I suspect worse than) that was a smogtacular week in Athens, in August, in the middle of a Greek heatwave.

Crazy heat is boringly common in Louisiana in the summer. It's VERY uncomfortable. So much so, that even the devil himself would leave us alone if he showed up.

Heat usually isn't the main problem in summer where I live. It's the forsaken humidity. Heat just makes it worse, especially when it's 103.

Yeah, try 110 with humidity! It's like hell on earth here in the south Plains states. Also they're saying these 100-degree days are going to keep coming for at least another couple of weeks. I think the record for most 100-degree days in a year is 50; we just might beat that this year.

104, not half bad, we'll be hitting 108 by the end of this week . But at least we get rain storms at night now . Overall it's been a typical year out here, we've hit a few 113s and such at our place but it hasn't been too bad...

yah its been in the 100s the past few days. I can't tell what I hate more:
The 100 degree heat with a dash of humidity, or the subzero temperatures with icey roads and snow...



...You know I'll take this XD.

The heat seems to make people act more stupid and angry than usual. This is seen by how absolutely ridiculous work was last night for me. Multiple vehicle pursuits, foot pursuits, shootings, stabbings, domestic assaults, you name it. I hope tonight isn't a repeat. Don't want to dispatch through that again.

Maybe that's why the service has been bad at every restaurant I've gone to lately...

I got in the car the other day after class, around 3 or so, and my thermometer read 110. Usually it is just because the car has been in the sun, but after fifteen minutes of driving, it had gone up to 113...and that was not including the heat index. This is in central Georgia, mind you, not the middle of Arizona.

It's been hitting in the high 90s and low 100s for weeks here in Houston. The humidity about sucks the life out of you. This all started in June --it is very unusual for it to get that hot that early in the year.

I'm a bit scared of what August will bring --that is usually our hottest month of the year.

We're having a new heat record where I live (Sweden)

Today didn't set a record for crazy weather, but it was crazy weather. Over 83 degrees by just after 7, within a minute it had darkened and we had thunderstorming and a tornado watch. I was lucky enough to be on the bus by then and not standing at the stop, but it was raining buckets and the wind was insane.

Yay, it's raining! So we get a break for like...a day. Then it's probably back to 100+ degrees, except it will be MORE HUMID AAAGHHH

They were talking about the insane heat on the news earlier - - It's even in the mid-to-high nineties here in the Mitten. (We rarely get beyond eighties!)

We had a heat index of like 106 today.

It sucked.

The high today here was 102º, with the heat index at 105º. The UPS guy that picks up packages from the store where I work had to go to the hospital for heat exhaustion.






I'm ready for Fall to happen now. XD

As a west coaster, I don't like this thread. It's like a terrible omen for the future.

lol YOU JINXED IT!! lol Now it shalt rain hot lava upon us west coasters. (me included)

High of 99 today. High of 102 tomorrow. Heat index much higher due to humidity.

It is too darn hot...

Here in Eastern NC we've got ridiculous humidity plus high temperatures. Last week we were in the high 80s/low 90s (I think that's about right...my car is set to Celsius b/c I'm weird, it was in the low-mid 30s). Haven't thought to check it recently, but I heard someone at work today mention that it apparenly hit 100F at some point during the day.

Yet another 100+ Degree day here in Central Oklahoma. We're supposed to have thunderstorms here this evening, which I'm sure just means we'll get to have some totally awesome humidity tomorrow. Why does going to church have to involve me exiting my house to get in my car?

It's only 99º outside today, but the heat index is somehow 115º? I have no idea how that works. XD

Humidity factors in, I think. I can be one temp, but with other factors it might affect people like a higher temperature would.

It's been cloudy here for a couple of hours and it cooled off a lot, so hurray for that. It was getting to the point where it was uncomfortable even inside my house.

80s/90s, even in the 70s at certain parts of the day. Not constant 100+ weather; that only happened a few days. Storms have been common this season.

Then again, we're the state that gets the subzero temperatures in winter. So I guess it evens out.

Apparently the heat is supposed to travel all the way up from Texas to the Canadian border this weekend and early next week.

Seriously, I'm never complaining about 90 degrees ever again.

Much hotter than I'm used to in Canada, my sister(s) and mom love it, my dad and I like it cooler.
