The city of Phoenix reached its 31st consecutive day with at least 110-degree heat Sunday, rounding out what many scientists believe will be the Earth’s hottest month on record.

Forecasters predict the arrival of thunderstorms late Monday likely will break the record heat on the last day of July; the expected high temperature in the Arizona capital July 31 is 106 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.

The previous record for longest 110-degree streak in Phoenix was set in 1974, when it had 18 straight days of heat at or above 110 degrees.

1974 18 days of 110 degrees or higher? Was it the gas guzzling caddies and Lincolns at fault? (S)

And crickets are swarming in Utah. Climate issue? Doubtful. Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote a book that mentions crickets swarming in the 1880’s. So there!

“And, WHERE do they measure the temp in Phoenix these days?”

At Sky Harbor airport, with a temperature gauge located on the runway.

It was in the 90’s with %90 humidity in Indiana last week. I contend that is worse, it’s hard to breath in that. To paraphrase a line from Pulp Fiction: I’ll take the Pepsi Challenge with that %15 humidity shit, any day of the week.

...what many scientists* believe...

.

.

.

.

.

*Scientists or political PhD's who call themselves scientists? This term "scientist" has been mission creeped like Jill Biden is a doctor. Political scientists are NOT scientists. Show me the breakdown of climate doom publishing scientists, and you'll actually see very few physicists, geologists and meteorologists/Atmospheric PhDs...

Now that Phoenix has turned into an asphalt and concrete jungle, it retains the heat more. The hottest city is Lake Havasu.

No mention of the underwater volcanic eruption last month that blew the ‘greenhouse gas’ water vapor into the high atmosphere in quantities that affect our weather, apparently. Water holds more heat than air in the atmosphere.

God is trying to use the heat to drive Katie Hobbs back into her hole.

James Gregory:
“In the summer...it’s hot. And some summers...are hotter...than others!”

This is one of those summers. Meanwhile here in Los Angeles, temps are forecast to be 4-6 degrees below normal this week.

Usually at Sky Harbor airport.
Its also one of the hottest places in Phoenix due to all the highway and concrete pavement surrounding it.

The cool dry beautiful weather has arrived in the Northeast.
They’ll have to give up the daily - you have awful weather because of climate change talk for a while. It’s not like they can announce, you have beautiful weather due to climate change.

Plus in the last fifty years the paved areas and buildings have quadrupled in the airport complex. The Phoenix Valley is about 110 miles by 100 miles and what used to be crop land is now subdivisions.

There is a wide variety of readings from the thirty or so reporting stations in that valley. The Airport is hardly representative of much other than downtown — a heat island.

I will say that the valley is different from other valleys as it has rock, sand, scrub and gravel rather than green areas to a great extent and much of the landscaped area is xeriscape without large lawns.
These areas take heat from the sun like pavement.
