BITE YER TONGUE.

It's October 1, 10:53 PM and it's still 70 degrees. And tomorrow's high is forecasted to be 80. I am ANGRY and I want searing, skin-shattering cold. I have since summer began. I even wanted it in February when we had weeks of record lows.

Bring it on.

Think of those of us who MIGHT DIE.

?

As my father always used to say, "You can always put on more layers in winter." (In summer you can only get so naked and still be miserable.)

Believe me, anyone I encounter in the dead soupy heat of summer has their lives in danger.

I'm really skinny, anemic, and have poor circulation. Winter is just 4 months of shivering for me. I live in Chicago because I hate myself, obv.

But I suppose I'm glad that some people enjoy the Time of Sad.

Ppl complaining about today being too hot here already. In Melbourne. In SPRING. The hell?

I'm lovin it.

But then again it isnt blindingly hot.

I complain about too hot when the snow starts to melt. Not being contrary for its own sake, but summer makes me cranky, miserable, and depressed. I stay inside next to the A/C that is cranked to the coldest setting.

Like so many people in Chicago I have radiators with a mind of their own, so even when it's 10 degrees outside, I open the windows and let the wind in.

Not being contrary for its own sake, but summer makes me cranky, miserable, and depressed.

Get rid of "depressed" and I echo your feelings. I anticipate the first snowstom of winter with much glee.
And fall is my favorite.

Fall is wonderful. Though I don't appreciate how summer is encroaching on it. But in its purest form it is delightful--cool, sometimes sunny, sometimes drizzly, and the smells are the best.

it should not be 86 degrees f right now, here

Yeah, I am really hoping it gets cooler soon just so I can enjoy fall before Old Man Winter comes along.

Jesse so on the motherfucking money. The weather here makes me feel like I'm living on a piece of paper. I miss fall so goddamn much.

October sposed to arrive in NYC by week's end

O hi. I am going to bitch here now.

The A/C completely died in our office suite. It's 87 degrees here and hotter inside. It looks like we will have to replace the entire system since fixing it would be an epic undertaking. I'm so fucking hot.

It's like being in the South again--high 80s in October--WTF.

guys, NYC and Chi and I think just about all of us will be nice and cool by Wednesday. I will be wearing a jacket. High of 57 here, it says. That's like, my favorite weather ever.

well, all of us in the central or eastern US. Um... no offense, everybody else on the planet.

I know.

I look forward to that, but my desire for it has such momentum that I actually overshoot fall and look forward to bitterest January.

i'm so sick of hearing "tomorrow is the last hot day, tomorrow is the last humid muggy day"

FALL HAS BEEN TEASING ME FOR LIKE A MONTH NOW

Fall is edging.

hahahahaha

god i can't wait for the fall. i love it. i can't take this 80s shit in october at all.

The highs here should dip below 90 by the end of the week!

still in the 90s here too.

i went swimming in the atlantic yesterday (jersey shore), latest ocean dip ever, the water was warm, weird.

The highs here have been in the low 60s or even high 50s for over a week. Here being western Oregon. This, with thick cloud cover and frequent showers of cold rain. Observe our cool autumn weather and be amazed!

it is really gross. all my long weekend baking plans were destroyed. i want to jump into the ocean. the water is warmer in the fall cos of inversion!

wtf @ 65°F on january 9

Normal in SF, CA.

where are you, mookieproof? i'm in montreal and it's... err... 45°F here, on january 9th, which is just dumb... and tomorrow is supposed to be WARMER?

It was nice to return from SNOWLAND to T-shirt weather. it is making me die less.

BAN SURMOUNTER.

i can take a few warm days here and there throughout january, they can be kind of nice. but i like my seasons straight up. a fluke here and there is fine. but we've only had like 5 actually winter-like days this year.

39.7°C

41.0°C

Yeah fuck this shit.

It's dry heat though, so I'm not drowning in my own sweat thankfully.

mail me ice plz thx

El Niño coming. Get ready.

This is absurd. We are just blowing away global sea surface temperature records and we will continue to do so. https://t.co/qUmDzlI7w2 pic.twitter.com/NG5og7u0iO

may and june were delightfully mild in NYC

and even now it hasn't been that straight-up hot -- upper 80s at most

but also it's like 12 straight days with a dew point over 70F and i've become So Angry at . . . fucking People

no doubt just as well that i barely leave the house

We're hitting 91-95F (33-35C) between today and tomorrow, the season until now was fine after a coldish wettish spring. Apparently 4th July was the hottest day ever recorded on earth, although that's a bit of a strange statistic and can't be easy to determine.
Our summer vacation will be North. First time in ages I'm travelling in July-August, off-season just had become the default to avoid heat/mass tourism or to go Southern hemisphere.

xp no joke i marveled at how lovely the early summer months were and over the span of the pre-July 4th weekend it turned into the moments of August that i hate dealing with.

In Greece right now and it's effin hot.

I was just in Greece two weeks ago, yeah. Hot! We got like one little drizzle of rain the whole 10 days.

Came out of the gate the first week of summer on fire. Got annoyed looking at the forecast, thinking, I hate it when they use the heat index instead of the actual temperature. Then I realized, oh no, the forecast really is 105° (41°C).

But now here we are on July 10, and the low this morning was 65° (18°C). So muggy, it still felt like 85°.

I didn't think it was that muggy here, but then I noticed that opening the freezer created this little rolling cloud of vapor in front of it

Speaking of Greece, we are only going to be back in Athens for a day, but it's supposed to hit 106 or something there, as part of this massive European heat wave. Where we are now is cooler but still effing hot.

This is the definition of compound, concurrent heat extremes! What you're looking at is the pressure pattern & wind flow at the 500mb level (5600 m, 18K ft). This is why Death Valley hit 129, the Med may hit 118, Iran heat index 152F and China hit an all-time heat record of 126. pic.twitter.com/qlXnoaAMmq

Really striking how in sync these are and how long they're sticking around. And in most cases this isn't even the effects of the latest El Nino yet.

Iran downright muggy.

To reach a heat index of 152°F (66.6°C), Persian Gulf International Airport had to hit the following trifecta:

Temperature --- 104°F (40°C)
Humidity ------ 64.5%
Dew Point ----- 90°F (32°C)

I not-so-randomly looked at Louis Armstrong International Airport outside New Orleans for comparison. Right now, their heat index is "only" 108°F (42°C) with the following conditions:

Temperature --- 92°F (33°C)
Humidity ------ 64%
Dew Point ----- 78°F (26°C)

And let me tell you something, New Orleans is dank and steamy enough already.
