too effing hot

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.

I got pretty used to it being in the 110-115º F range

WTF Ab where did you live, death valley?

Today peaked at 37.3ºC

Peaked? Has the change orredy arrived?

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.

long term forecasts for the the north east are not nice.

looks like 2+ weeks of 90+ degrees for basically everywhere east of the Mississippi and if you trust the models out to July there's forecasts for 105+ all time highs in the mid-atlantic.

i cry foul! massachusetts should not have ANY deadly purple in it. its bad enough that most of the state is "major". look, i didn't move to kansas or texas or any other godforsaken tornado alley of a state. i'm supposed to live in a civilized state with civilized weather that is mostly filled with mud and every hundred years a sad old storm of the century shuffles through and we just buy some more cedar singles in bulk from Canada for our Cape houses in exchange for geese pelts. okay, fine, they are asphalt shingles now and not cedar. canada has the best asphalt.

greenfield is now purplefield, sorry

"heatrisk" is a weird new one from NWS btw https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/heatrisk/.

What's a heatrisk do, mark a footnote about electrical storms?

Good luck USA

feel very lucky that most of the summer in the UK has been in the 60°F+ range at best recently, you'll never hear me complaining about dark grey skies and rain

Until last week's rains we had 105+ heat indices two weeks ago in South Florida, unheard of this time of year.
