Let me be clear here it was a 102 what it felt like i could care less its summertime its suppose to be hot By my index it it was more like 139 in the shade
I thought Rush said that temperature was a Democratic conspiracy...
LOL the heat has reached the east coast.
Yeah, we don't have the accompanying humidity, but we will beginning early next week.
Suck it up and live with it. We do. Annually. With no fawning press. It's doable. Quite.
I put an ac unit in a small room, I put the kittens in there. It’s hot.
I’ve lived in NYC since Ike’s first term. We get heat waves like this once or twice a decade. They suck, but they’re nothing new.
There is no such thing as a heat wave unless it reaches NY or DC.
In my little neck of the woods, it’s been over 100 for 50+ consecutive days, but flyover heat waves don’t matter....
It’s hot in summer? Who knew?
and in winter the local news readers tell us ..wear warm clothing, its cold out there, check on seniors, and stay inside Heat Centers, and blah blah blah. Then the news readers tell us its HOT out there, stay indoors with A/C wear light clothing, drink water and check on the seniors.
While they are OUTSIDE doing hat we are told we shouldn;t. I mean. come on how stupid do they think we are? (very, obviously)
“Now yer all lolly gaggin’ around like it’s a hunert ‘n’ twenty’’. “Can’t be more ‘n’ a hunert ‘n’ fourteen!’’.
We’re used to 105+ in Central Ca but this summer we’ve had maybe 7 days that hot. We’ve mostly had temps in the upper 80’s and 90’s. I’ve lived here for 30 years and don’t ever remember summer temps like this.
I know almost everybody here will hate me but I had a real scorcher of a day yesterday, might have been the hottest day of the year so far...
It was 76 degrees in Wasilla, Alaska.
usually we get a week or two of days just over 70F, and rarely usually about every other year might break 80F for a couple of days.
Sorry for those trying to cope with the heat, look at it this way, you would never survive our winters then.
And I cannot ever visit a Florida theme park other than in january and I almost pass out at 85F.
It got mighty hot on July 4 1966 before glo-bull warming when few could afford air conditioners.

I don’t necessarily believe these “high temp” readings. Back in 1972 the temperature in Tulsa OK was 105 degrees on May 5. Our thermometer registered 105. All the news channels were commenting on the 105 degree heat, but when I looked up the ACTUAL local temp on the internet it was far less.
It must have been the concrete buildings downtown that radiated heat and caused it registered much higher.
Our temp here in the Ozarks was 101 a few days ago. another person a few miles from here registered 104 on her thermometer so it varies from place to place.
I see to recall during a heat wave in the south in the 90’s, Clinton passed a program..millions to buy ACs for poor people....anyone know how that worked out?
Obama has kept his promise! I got my electric bill yesterday! It is the highest bill I have EVER HAD since the heat wave of 1983!
