Hot or Not: Your weather....

With apologies to our heat addled forumites in Texas and Oklahoma where it has been brutally hot all summer.

Has it been hot out your way? We just set a record for the hottest August on record in the Denver area. Plus it is supposed to hit 98 today (again). I hate winter but a nice long fall would be really good anytime soon. Though amazingly, as hot as it has been I don't think we have topped triple digits yet this summer. Just lots of upper 90s.
 
Been hot and humid for most of the summer, though we've been pretty comfortable for the last week or so.

That's supposed to change starting today. Highs in the mid to upper 90s expected through the weekend. Humidity is supposed to be a little lower than it was a couple of weeks ago when it was in the 90s with 110 degree heat index.
 
Summer took a long time to get here, but when it did in August, it has been hot. Just starting to cool off again up here in the mountains of Idaho.
 
Hot and humid all summer. Really hot... I think we had something ridiculous like 17 days STRAIGHT above 90 with matching humidity. :mad: it's been lovely for the last week or so, but today we're going to hit 96 and have scattered thunderstorms.

I'm ready for a nice fall and then a mighty cold winter. :love:
 
It has been hot here this summer, but that is pretty normal for our area. I would described it as a pretty typical summer.
 
The LA summer has been great this year. Rarely has the thermometer gone over 85 :thu: In fact this summer has floated between 78-85 which is just killer. Upon returning from Hawaii, LA got hit with the hottest temps this summer and it was around the day of the BluesCast featuring Junior Walker. LA was around 93-95, Valley 111 and in Orange where Premier music is, around 95.

Yesterday when I left work it was 72 at 3pm - total shocker. I will take it :thu:
 
July was way hot but August has been unseasonably cool here, almost like fall is coming early. Which means stupid fucking meathead winter will be here sooner, bringing shitty ice, fuckface snow and freezing fucking bastard cold with it.

It's actually been a nice summer here for a change...still warm but nothing like its been in recent years.
 
The Amish people at my farmer's market are about to buy air conditioners. That says it all.

The worst in my lifetime was 1980, but this is much worse. My mom was alive during the worst of the dust bowl...1936 was the peak of that. She claims this year was worse, except for the dust storms, which hopefully won't return. Those were mostly the result of poor farming practices.

What he said. It's pretty hard to differentiate between the varying degrees of skin melting hot we get down here. After a while, it's just hot.
 
It's been great up here, never getting much above 20% humidity, mid 90s... However, last weekend, when I was down in the Los Angeles area, I was reminded of the San Fernando Valley 105 degree summer heat, mixed in with some valley 80% humidity and a shit load of smoggy brown air, being two blocks from the 101 freeway... I always hated it growing up, and it still sucks... Glad I was just there for a night!
 
It's so hot here that baby red tail hawks have been jumping from the nest to avoid baking. Animal rescue folks have saved a few but most didn't make it.

Edit... I was about to rant on the government, illegal immigrants with automatic weapons, the tobacco industry, and more... Never mind...
