At 5:20 PM EST(4:20 local time), 7-11-2011, the Weather Underground website showed the heat index in Paducah, KY, to be 153 degrees (99 degrees with a 92 degree dew point). I've never seen it like this. (I'm in another part of the state, where the heat index is a paltry 111...I feel like a piker).
Post your astounding summer weather reports here...how hot is it where you are?
95F here in Indiana isn’t all that unusual but it’s rarely coupled with 60 to 70% humidity during the daytime hours.
Our friends in the gulf states must have installed a new and improved humidity pump.
Okay... that still don’t make any difference that the parking lot literally stuck to my feet this afternoon at work and I left a nice set of foot prints on an asphalt tarmac...
Hotter than hell in Indy coupled with high humidity.
Really quite awful.
Holy Hannah—that’s hot!
It’s only 89 here in Northern PA.
Dayton Oh at 2:00pm, 95 degrees, dewpoint 81, for a heat index of 113.
I don’t recall ever seeing a dewpoint that high before. I know it is impossible to breathe.
You S.U.C.K.
89 and breezy here in Palmdale CA...cooler than the weekend.

just heard this on local radio today here in MN:
” today’s heat index feels 156 degrees warmer than the coldest windchill factor (-44) this past winter”
no wonder I hate it here.
