FL isn't that bad dude lol. What part are you in. Naples is barely 90s.

90/90 is no way to live, man! Swamp ass all day? No thanks.

 

[Irish#1]

It's not just the south. It's been hot pretty much everywhere this summer. We finally got some relief in the midwest and the prediction for the next week is below average temps. Dog days of summer may be cooler than normal.

Pennsylvania... We're looking at something like 17/18 days will have rain. Today is the 4th day of this weather.

 

[BobbyMac]

This shit is out of control... it was 115 today... so I looked on the 30day forecast and the entire month is predicted to be over 100... a month, at least, straight of triple digit heat. It’s not like it just got hot for crying out loud.

Pffft. It was 117 yesterday. Did I get on IE to display my mangina? No! I mowed the lawn, pruned the Margarita tree and washed the car. Suck it up buttercup!

We were in Nobletucky/Cicero during the week of the 4th. 90's and 150% humidity. I don't know how you people put up with that and then shovel snow for 7 months.

These weekly videos of raging rivers rushing down the Main St's of these small PA towns are nothing short of shocking. Hope you are up in the hills.

How do I get one of these “margarita trees” and do they come in strawberry or traditional?

In the area and you didn't stop by to say hello? That neg rep worthy.

7 months? lol We barely get snow anymore. Average temp in February is 35. Since the boys moved out years ago I've been shoveling the driveway when needed. It's 100ft long and two car wide. My wife keeps bitching at me about having a heart attack, so fours years ago, I bought a snow blower. Used it once the first year, none the second and only once last year.

Humidity was definitely a bitch for about a month.

I’ve been to Disneyland during 95 degrees and 80 percent humidity... it was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced... 90s with 150 percent (that’s like a thing??) is something I can’t even imagine. Screw that noise

 

[Andy in Sactown]

I didn't think > 100% humidity was a thing. Being hyperbolic, perhaps? My understanding is at 100% humidity, relative to temperature and pressure, indicated the air cannot absorb more moisture in gaseous form, so you get rain/mist with the atmosphere being effectively saturated.

/shrug

It's all sounds terrible. It may be 100+ here in Sactown, but at least it's a dry heat with a cool delta breeze most evenings.

"Surprisingly, yes, the condition is known as supersaturation. At any given temperature and air pressure, a specific maximum amount of water vapor in the air will produce a relative humidity (RH) of 100 percent. Supersaturated air literally contains more water vapor than is needed to cause saturation."

Learn something every day... so I was half right.

 

[ACamp1900]

My assumption was you are correct, just the thought of humidity makes my mind melt so who knows. It’s typically dry here too. We got a couple days of 50 percent humidity with high 80s a few weeks ago... it was torture. I’ll take a dry 110 over that any day.

 

[NorthDakota]

ATL in for a cool period. Mid to low 80s for a week after a few more days of high 80s / low 90s. Pretty mild here so far this year IMO.

You have to embrace the heat. Find a pool, beach, or lake near you. You can order pizza, and grill out lol.

I'm between Pensacola and Panama City. Right on the gulf.

Sweat and humidity all the time. Goodness gracious. I miss my igloo.

Lucky my town is on top of the mountain. Some local communities are flooded unfortunately.

He was joking about the 150 percent humidity, but it was in the upper 80's which sucked. I was working outside and put up my canopy to block the sun, but I was still dripping wet. I actually changed my shirt and BVD's three times in the span of a few hours I was so drenched.

My ex & I took our daughters to Six Flags in Atlanta several years ago and the temps and humidity were both in the high 90's. Just a brutal day. Sweated so much I had salt stains on my clothes by the end. Summer in the Deep South can be miserable beyond words. I HATE hot humid weather.

 

[MNIrishman]

Sunny and cool here in MI. I don't recommend the state as a whole but the weather... About as good as it gets outside of San Francisco.

yeah we're getting flooded bad here in danville and surrounding area...they stated in some places it's going to be worse than in 2011; which was just crazy

It's good for the ass pores.

Hit the beach brother. Nothing better than than having whiskey lemonade or vodka cranberry, toes in the sand, chilling under an umbrella, feeling that gulf breeze.

Is the Susquehanna over the top? Hope you and yours stay dry!

Been in Columbia, SC for six years now. I will never get used to this heat/humidity. I can't wait to retire back up north.

 

[GowerND11]

More flooding in Pennsylvania today. Many boroughs in my county are in a State of Emergency. Creeks are over the top, Little Schuylkill doesn't look good, water is falling off the hills and mountains like waterfalls.

Hope others in PA stay dry as well!

 

[zelezo vlk]

Stay safe dude

I'm always amazed at the difference in weather between the northern third of Indiana and the rest of the state. Indy's forecast is highs of 16, -1 and 13, the next three days. South Bend is forecasted at 8, -13 and -5.

 

[ND88]

For the ND OGs in close proximity, this is the only thread that matters at the moment.

Feels like -43. Awesome.

Be safe, Midwesterners.

I like cold weather but shew that’s a bit harsh.

 

[MNIrishman]

My furnace has been out for the last three days. Dressing warm and using space heaters.

Feels like -51 in Chicago right now. Air temp of -22 is the coldest since 1994. And its going to be just as bad tomorrow morning and will only warm up about 10 degrees (to -14) during the day.

 

[Irish#1]

Currently -11 here in Indy with a wind chill of -34. It's only -4 in Barrow Alaska.

Got to work this morning at 6:30 and there's no power in the area except for the building I work in, so my data center was humming along. When the power company got the power back up, they tripped us and took our power down for a minute. Those bastards!


Stay warm everyone.

 

[EvilleIrish]

I think basically every school in the state is closed. My school here in S Indiana is closed.

 

[BobbyMac]

Hahahahaha

Meanwhile in Scottsdale where all of the smart (ex)Chicagolander's live...
