How Hot Is It in New York Right Now? This Hot.
New York Magazine ^ | 7/19/2013 | Dan Amira

New York. So hot right now, New York.

Today, in fact, is going to be even hotter than the past few days. The heat index — a measurement that combines temperature with humidity to represent how hot it actually feels — is expected to reach as high as 108 degrees. But when it gets this hot, not even the heat index can tell the whole story. That story can only be told through the strange happenings throughout the city, as reported on Twitter.

That dry heat excuse works up to about 105F, then your head starts hurting.

I’d rather be flying in a F105 than frying in 105F.

I'll take 117 in Phoenix over 90+ anywhere the humidity goes above 60%.

Houston weather.

AC is a must in warmer climates that's for sure. I can't even imagine getting through a cool day like today's 87 DG’s without AC.
