How about this heat?

[LocuMob]

I'll listen to the windchill factor, cold and calm air is a lot better than cold and windy.

They weathermen started reporting forecasted heat index instead of temperatures cuz it sounds more alarming. It's already hot at 95°. Telling me the heat index is 104° doesn't change a thing but put people in a panic. It's July. It's hot. Same as last July. And the July before that. And the July.....you get the picture.

^This ^ pisses me off... now I can't even watch the weather report without hype and drama...

Reporting the heat index vs the temperature is more of the silly, panic inspiring, bull poop that gets all the sheep talking. That and naming every stupid thundercloud... if this crap continues for a few years, dumbasses won't be able to distinguish a real weather threat from the hyped up run of the mill stuff.

It sucks...but then again, it IS summer time in the USA... excellent excuse for long road trip to nowhere in particular...

I don't know guys, I'm pretty sure this is the first July ever. If only there was some tax we could pay to make this not happen.

Looks like we're getting a break. Tomorrow is suppose to be stormy with a high in the upper 70's.

if this crap continues for a few years, dumbasses won't be able to distinguish a real weather threat from the hyped up run of the mill stuff.

I think we have passed that point.

Heat Index. Wind Chill. Naming cold fronts.
Weather was much nicer 25 years ago.

Belgium.

It's a very small european country (some say boring).
Mostly cold and rainy throughout the year.
Let's just say we have a weather that could easily be compared to the one in Seattle.

Now, here is below the latest forecast for Thursday.
That 39°C you're reading on the map translates into 102°F. Unheard of.
Some say the absolute country record will be beaten (it dates back from 1947).

OMG OMG OMG it's hot in July!!!!

 

[Big_John]

Been hot and humid here the past few days with some thunder storms making it interesting now and then. Today, it's lower 60's here and raining...

At least it's not snowing...

 

[commando1]

At least it's not snowing...

I've been saying that for 13 years, 1 month, 22 days.

Hot here in NH over the weekend. To cure what ailed me, I ripped the doors off my TJ, threw the top back, drove an hour north to Conway and spent 5 hours floating down a river with a cooler full of Coors and some jalapeno cheddar cape cod chips. Of course I was arrogant enough NOT to sunscreen my legs because I figured they'd be under water. WRONG...Legs look like a god damn candy cane.

Lived in Florida for over 25 years and I could count the number of sunburns on one hand. Move to New Hampshire and I think I've double that. I'm an idiot..

The air is thinner in NH, that's why

Ozone hole has gotten bigger. It varies, one year map showed it down to New Jersey, another year it's down to South Carolina. I know one summer I was up there in the 90's and stayed out on the beach too long and got a burn on my shoulders, whereas staying pretty much all day on beach here in Florida with the tan I have no burn at all. Elevation has a factor too.

I reckoned the humidity in FLA knockz the burn factor down quite a bit...But what the hell do I know? I havent been south of the Mason-Dixon in 20 years. lol

No the humidity can amplify it, plus light clouds bounces the sun rays back to earth (so they say) but right now the sun is in the northern sky so it's not right over us. In the winter it sucked when it is in the southern sky as when we use to sit all day in the grandstands out at Daytona International Speedway watching testing my right side of my face would get scorched.

Oh come on guys, it’s not even hot enough to put your tools in a bucket of water yet...

Did see this baby tornado thing out on the flats. It sure wasn’t a dust devil !
