THIS HEAT IS HELLISH HOT!!!

108 with the heat index here...44% humidity. Near Appleton Wisconsin...

Gonna be some wicked lightning storms all summer, maybe even bad hail too.

Expected temp of 101 with heat index of 110 in Maryland tomorrow! The UV index has been a 10 for the past 5 days which is also crazy. The scale only goes up to 11 btw..

This summer is brutal!

indiana today. been like this for a long time already.

that's the actual temps, not the heat index.

so long corn.

So far we are in day 18 of this heat wave. UV Index of 10 today with peak temps 96 (about 17 above average).

The storms have been aggressive and numerous. Humidity is sick, face dripping saturated fog of heat.

The ground is so dry, we dumped our toddlers mini-pool in the grass......soaked it up before it could run off even just a little.


I did get to see nice heat lightening above Ohio during the 4th Fireworks. Must have been huge storm cause the thundertops were seen all the way in Pittsburgh. Drove 2 hours to see the fireworks, worth it (we have AC in the van thank God)

The heat lightening was a deep pumpkin orange, really rare imho.

Yep...sweltering.

Winchester, VA area.

It's 88-90 right now with a heat index of 93 (70% humidity). Supposed to hit 94 actual temp. Tomorrow is supposed to get to 101. Sunday forecast 96. Excessive heat advisory in effect.

You go outside and the sweat just starts pouring...humidity so high, it won't evaporate for cooling effect.

religitards say summer heat = demons

I was thinking about this as I was outside sweating while ago.

I'm kinda old so...

I can clearly remember the 4th of July in 1976. I was 11 years old at the time. We had went to my cousin's house for the 4th, you know...cookout, go to fireworks that night.

They lived in Staunton, VA at the time and I remember it was 104 degrees. The asphalt was putting off so much heat you couldn't stand on it for more than a few minutes even with shoes on.

Just something I thought of.

There is something different about it.

Here in Illinois its been sweltering for days.

Like a friggin oven outside.

I want to cry over it.

Give me an ice cube.

Please....

heatwave? I was doing my fight sequence routine out under the sun a few hours ago, it's not that bad. It's super hot but it's not humid. This is a classic Phoenix arizona day

Storms, intense heat and sunlight, lightening, drought (famine?) Yep, it's 2012.

I started a thread about the Heat in the mid west and the New Madrid fault...
Thread: Could the New Madrid fault line be triggered by the heat wave?

Hellish hot?

No.


Hella hot?

Yes.

i thought i had this straight in my head but el nina is wet, el nino is dry...is what i thought from reading an australian report on it...now i'm confused.

"Based on the prediction, the northern United States could be in for a warmer and drier winter than average, while the Southwest and Southeast could find itself with more rain than usual."

and the headlines right under it say:

"The phenomenon increases Atlantic wind shear that can keep tropical systems from forming, decreasing the total number of storms during the June 1 to Nov. 30 season."

hey people one tiny thing you can do is provide water somehow for the birds. put it in the shade, and they prefer a basin type container to say a peanut butter jar. put water out for animals. bigger birds need it too, and cats or dogs squirrels etc.

Great Idea Anne....will do.

i made a separate thread because i think the idea needs to be seen more. :)

What do you expect when the world is ending?

I just posted this in another "hot" thread, so I thought I would add it here. Hope it means something to you:

=============================

This may not be the right thread for this information, but this heat is perfectly natural and expected. Mother Earth is transitioning into a new level of reality. What that means is that she is going to turn into a planet that will appear to be a planet of fire...

What that means for humanity is that we must transition into a new and advanced form of life that can cope with these earth changes. Mother Earth has been moving toward this amazing change for a very long time and this information has been known by what we call "wise ones" throughout history. This time has been expected for thousands of years.

Those that cannot cope with this amazing earth change will either leave or die...
