Default Heat!

Well, it looks like it fiannlay made it here to NE! We are supposed to hit 94 tomorrow. That will be our hottest day this summer if we get that high! It seemed very humid today but I am sure tomorrow will be worse! How has the rest of the midwest been? I know in KC they have been cooler than normal too! I sure was enjoying it! LOL

Minnesota has heated up also and the humidity along with it. I couldn't live with this kind of humidity on a steady basis. I told my son Saturday a little snow would feel pretty good about now. We had the heat in California but never with high humidity, at least in the San Fernando Valley anyway. With humidity like this if a person didn't keep moving he'd probably rust up.

it's going to be hot here in Chicago tomarrow and of coarse there will be humidity with it. Oh yea then it's going to dump rain in the afternoon, great up goes the humidity. All this while framing a roof, gota like it

POTENT SEVERE WEATHER SET-UP: Hottest of 2004. Severe weather threat late-day: Tornado or t-storm watches possible. WSW winds push warmth to the lakeshore and beyond. Peak heat indexes: 99°-106°. Clouds grow into powerful late day t-storms, which exit early tonight.

Maybe the'll be wrong oh well

Yeah for the past 5+ days or so in Sioux Falls it has been terrible.

Give me 12" of snow any day over this crap.

It just makes you so sluggish and not motivated to do anything.

We topped out at 96 yesterday with dew points in the low 70's.

The humidity finally broke off last evening. The temps are in the 80's today but the dewpoint is much lower than it has been. I can finally get some things done outside without getting soaked with perspiration. Even washed my Tundra last night and detail sprayed it morning in the garage. Camry gets it tonight.

been 98+° last few days in the Wichita area (topping at 100° y'day). Guess I should have enjoyed the cooler weather while it lasted. Actually I can take the heat, but the humidity is a killer... w/ humidity factored in, heat index was 105° yday (ouch).

Don't let those Houston people scare you

This should scare you.

"Death Valley." Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia. CD-ROM.Compton's, 1995. "... the scorching heat reached 134 °F." 56.7 °C

"Death Valley." Encarta.CD-ROM. Redmond, WA: Microsoft, 1996. "... the National Weather Service recorded 56.7 °C in 1913." 56.7 °C

"Death Valley." World Book Encyclopedia. Chicago: World Book Corporation, 1999: 62. "134 °F was reported there on July 10, 1913" 56.7 °C

"The Natural World." Guinness Book of World Records. Guinness, 1999: 250. "Temperatures of over 120 °F were recorded in Death Valley, California on 43 consecutive days." > 48 °C

The hottest temperature on Earth ever recorded most likely occurred in Death Valley, California during 43 consecutive days between July 6 and August 17, 1917. During those days, the temperature was over 48 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit). The national weather service recorded 56.7 °C (134 °F). The date reported there was July 10, 1913.

Hey, my dad worked for Western Atlas. Then it became Baker Atlas, then Baker Hughes, then blah blah blah hehe... We're both working at a small oil company now called ASEP America. www.asepgroup.com is the site, I believe.
