Getting close to 100 again today, getting real 2012 summer feels so far with all the heat so far. All we need is a drought to come in shortly  :spin:

73 today, the highest so far this year.

It's going to be near 90 on Sunday and I am not looking forward to sweating it out.

Third severe thunderstorm warning in 9 days.

Bruce

High 80s to low 90s. Too hot.

Another 90+ degree day in Albany. Average for a summer is 10; we're halfway there and it's not even July. At least 1 more likely in the next week, potentially 2.

Sunny and in the 70s, with a tad bit of humidity. Inland is in the 90s. Beach parking lots are full.

Gonna get toasty in Missoula this week. Welcome to the hot dog days of summer 2022 in Montana, y'all. This is usually the beginning of the dry spell, too. All the moisture we got in the beginning of June has pretty much fizzled out.

Right now it's 82. I see two hot spot type of days. Monday and Saturday. The forecast high for Monday is 93 and Saturday is 89. Orofino and Riggins, ID are set to hit the century mark on Monday with Riggins forecast to hit 102. We stand at a level 2 heat risk according to the heat risk models. So if anyone is in Western Montana or Northern Idaho Panhandle, better have some water with 'ya to stay hydrated through the day.

Right around normal conditions we typically expect to see for this time of the year.  For today and tomorrow:

Nighttime Lows:  upper 70s to low 80s
Daytime Highs:   upper 90s to low 100s

On an interesting note:  McAllen hit 111 degrees on April 5th & 6th of this year, but have not reached that mark since then and (knock on wood) hopefully won't for the rest of the year.

The marine layer has come to save the day, with temperatures only in the 60s (a 35-degree drop from the previous days). My allergies are still going crazy, though.

Ted$8roadFan

Will soon be HHH - hazy, hit and humid.

jgb191

Of the daily record highs for June 2020:  five of the days occurred in Arizona, 16 days in California, one in Nevada, and eight in Texas.  The average daily record of all the days in June was 114 degrees; the hottest of which was in Death Valley, California which recorded 123 degrees twice on June 10 & 11.

Man, it's hard to make you happy, isn't it.  :-D

I, for one, would love to have a high in the 80s. Last time we had a high below 90 in Salt Lake was on June 21st... almost two full weeks ago.

I don't want to rag on Bruce specifically (he is a good friend), so I won't. But I will say this: many Seattleites pride themselves on their supposed love for mild, cloudy days, and temperatures in the 70s at most. It goes without saying that almost no one here has any idea how good we have it, and it's frankly insulting to the rest of this country how much people around here bitch about temperatures that would be considered very comfortable in most other places.

I, for one, miss the sun, and would take 80s and 90s everyday for the next three months if I could. Our Spring dragged on far longer than it should have; Seattle didn't even hit 60 last Sunday, and I'm hoping that'll be the last time that happens until October, because frankly, I can't hardly take it anymore. The lack of sun is insanely depressing; this area, as a whole, suffers from a very noticeable, if not serious Vitamin D deficiency. And people seem proud of it, almost. It's weird.

Six and a half inches of rain already today with who knows how much more on the way.

I recall commenting once that "if you don't like the weather, wait an hour", and getting roasted on here for suggesting that expression was specific to my area.

There's definitely a parallel here: I feel like pretty much the entire country north of, say, the 37th parallel would complain about the lack of sun in their area and be proud to do so, like they're tougher for having endured it or something. Speaking for my part of New York, it does seem like we can go months at a time with extremely limited sunshine, although it's usually November to April, not during the summer.

Currently it is past midnight and the air temperature is still in the 90s as far north as Dallas.  The entire metroplex won't be dropping below 80 degrees at any time day or night any day soon.

Call me Goldilocks. My house doesn't cool down fast enough at night for me to sleep all that well if the daytime temperature is above 80.

Honestly the dreary spring has made it even harder to adjust to the summer temperatures, since we were suddenly jolted by them halfway into June. Since I was born and raised here, I'm quite used to the normal weather cycle and never had to really adjust, but there's definitely a learning curve involved for transplants or those who have tasted the forbidden fruit of other climates.

The next week or so is 70s and low 80s, which is just about right. Summer really does start on July 5.

Ted$8roadFan

Sunny, warm, not too humid, in the 70s and 80s.

Missoula County was placed under a Severe Thunderstorm Watch for about six hours today and not a single storm was near Missoula AT. ALL! None. All the storms were north, south, and east of Missoula. That forecast for storm risk was an absolute joke. *yawn* Thanks NOAA! Thanks SPC! Thanks NWS Missoula! For nothing! It may as well be raining goats from the land of the great Alans in the Garden City while clear and 73!

I mean, I don't know what you expect. A severe thunderstorm watch just means that conditions are favorable for the development of severe thunderstorms. It doesn't mean they're guaranteed to happen, and it definitely doesn't mean that every square foot in the advisory is going to get them, even if they do form.

As I write this, in my local area it has been full dark for five hours, yet ambient temperature is 76° F with 71% humidity (66° F dewpoint).  This is the kind of weather where the A/C cycles on and off through the night.
