Got to 111 degrees here, in Oregun. Phil sez’ it was hot up there. What is your boil point?

My phone says it got to 100°F here in madera, calif. Still 90°F at 7:30pm.
You must live along the Columbia River. I remember driving up there years ago as a truck driver and it was very hot. I think the heat increases due to canyon pressure, similar to what happens in the Grand Canyon.
No, I live in the Southern part of Oregun, Phil lives close to the Columbia River and I did at one time in my miserable life.
102 according to my phone and I busted my ass from 10:30 to 8:15 tonight working on shit.
First I put a new hood latch on the Dodge, then took it up and unloaded a full truckload of yard debris and then came home and started in working on a riding lawnmower.
In the gravel.
I am wiped the fuck out.
Got all the way up to 59° here today.
Do you live in a cheap, malfunctioning refrigerator?
212 degrees
Yep, the heat dome likes to sit on my state but it moved west so 70’s Monday thru Friday and desperately needed rain
That’s just Tuesday for us here in Phoenix. I’ve been out riding the Kawasaki on the concrete freeway when it is 122 out with 5% humidity. The air will just suck the moisture right out of you.
Down here in the Fl. panhandle, we’ve been pretty consistantly in the 102-118 heat index range for weeks. And with all the rain, the humidity has been stupid. Who the hell needs a sauna?
Well, hell. As soon as I open my mouth about the heat, we’re in for a slight cooling trend with the highs in the upper 80s and the lows in the mid to upper 60s.
Almost fall-like.
When my father was stationed at Adair AFS in the early 60s, it got to 110 in Albany where we lived at the time. We had temps over 90 for 2 weeks straight. My mother didn’t tell my brothers and I to get outside and play during that period.
111 is just nuts for your neck of the woods – that’s more like Eastern OR temperatures.
I tried a web search for “canyon pressure” and it was stupid. Whatever that is, I doubt the Columbia Gorge has it; the Gorge isn’t known, that I recall, for particularly high temperatures. For that matter, neither is the Willamette valley.
North central Fl, 112-120 heat index with humidity at 75 to 100% every afternoon.
No wonder why you can’t breathe, we breath air, not water…
That’s true. It’s so thick outside most days that I can’t take it much longer than it takes to walk to the truck after the wife cranks it and gets the AC running.
Entering spring here in the tropics in far northern Australia. During winter the coastal temps were down to 9°C, or even 4°C up in the high Tablelands. Parts of the south are still in snow, so Al Gore should go and pat a polar bear. That’s if he can find one, they may have gone extinct.
Local temps today were 16° – 28°C at 86% humidity.
There was a report of two fire hydrants fighting over a dog.

108 to 112 in St. George lately. SLC has been hot as well, but this continued high heat with no rain sucks for the farmers.
