too effing hot

I had rain for like 3 days in a row and got all wet while going home. This morning was 23 degrees. So much happiness for this i cant even begian to talk about it

Woooooo...!

Just like that.

Cheezuz christo, los angeles.

KILL ME NOW

i was in encino friday -- at 113º i went swimming in an 87º pool to cool off and ended up with all sorts of weird breathing trubbles.

my wading pool is too hot to even bother... i take cold showers every hour and stand in front of a fan

do not want

I got pretty used to it being in the 110-115º F range, but now it's in the high 80s/late 90s. If it were 5-10º cooler, I would adore it, but as it stands it just feels like the weather is TEASING me. "It could be Fall, but....naw. Haha."

fuck this shit

I think this shit is supposed to be fucked tomorrow.

THANK GOD

I can't be bothered to check, but I don't think it got to 100 all summer. Which is just bizarre in these parts.

uhhhhh
bleah

Amsterdam was nice, and then I came back home to schvitzville.

Starting to get hot.
the front passenger-side window of my car asploded in the car park on Friday, it was so fucking weird.

..And it was almost definitely the heat as there was no projectile in or around the car and a co-worker was nearby it when it happened.

Glass was everywhere :((

Oh nice. I just posted this to the Chicago thread. This is my local El station

I cannot wait.

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.

we're around 105 for a while, low humidity though. slc utah. monsoon moisture has been blessing us sporadically over the past two weeks. we're right at the northern tip of its reach so it isn't much. even though the colorado plateau has had a few better than average monsoon years, the colorado river system is basically collapsing from drought.

Stay safe, Planet Earth! Oh wait.

I read something about the arab world being more into the lunar calendar & moon goddesses because it's so fucking hot, and the evening is preferable

maybe it's time that we all go nocturnal

The killer down here is that it will be a low in the high 80s for three minutes at 4AM so there's never a respite, no chance for the daily heat to dissipate, people with bad/no AC can't sleep and don't have anywhere to go.

Along those lines, anyone performing the Hajj this year and not in, say, 2036, is CRAZY.

A change in the weather
Is known to be extreme

it's currently 37.2°outside my house ... fuck

just outside my house (or a mile or two anyway) - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-62219162

Just read that the hottest spot in the UK yesterday was in Suffolk, about 23 miles West of here.

there's an exciting wall of thunder moving slowly up the channel: https://www.blitzortung.org/en/live_lightning_maps.php?map=12

ooh yes, bring it

for real though i kind of suspect we'll start seeing various official sources lying about the weather in the coming years.

Swaffham Bulbeck and Stow cum Quy, you say?

Stow cum Quay is a few minutes up the road, as you drive in there's a sign saying "STOW ᶜᵘᵐ QUAY" like they hope nobody will notice the cum.

it's 40.5°c rn. A couple of degrees higher than what bbc weather is showing. There is a steady breeze but the air is so hot it doesn't bring any relief.

got chubby rain here

had a round of golf today but teed off at 5.30am so it was manageable. still amazed to see joggers towards the end of my round just after 8am when it was getting p crispy.

This is so horrible. Curtains closed all day for the last three days, trapped in an endless cycle of sweating, crying and drinking water to try to replenish my hydration. Everything feels awful. The only okay thing is that the cats seem to be managing alright and are enjoying the novelty of playing with ice cubes.

I am dying for a storm right now.

my poor labbie just gives up and looks despondent, genuinely sadness in his eyes. My son can't cope either and it's much harder to deal with his meltdowns in this heat. Cold showers have been useful though.

Good luck dealing with this calz and other UKers.

thanks PBKR. it's alright now where I am, it dropped 10+ degrees between 3.30 - 5.30 and has rapidly cooled down since then. I feel for people who have to live in these infernal conditions for months at a time.

we have raindrops in stratford

after a day of boiling temperatures the flat is now full of barbeque smoke from somewhere. earlier, at 18:15 in fact, we had fireworks.

I’m assuming that podcast is racist I’m not gonna listen to it

I'd guess you are probably not missing much

Still 98F outside at 10PM

that's the thing -- it's not even so much that it gets hot as that it never cools off

today was the 40th consecutive day over 100° F in austin, texas

the high lows are the creepy thing, definitely

xp jesufuckingcristo

Meanwhile in Melbourne where it never gets that cold/never goes below freezing or snows, its been below freezing 2 days running. Whee.

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.
