Baby - it's hot outside

Thanks for moving my post to where it belongs Evo. The heat from being on my moms roof for three hours this afternoon taring and flashing a 30 foot strip got to me. Not to mention a painful sun-burn.

By this time tomorrow, I'll be on a flight to Aruba. Now you can get your boarding pass online and that's just what I did. On the boarding pass there is a weather forecast.

Fri Apr 27 82F/79F Precip 10%
Sat Apr 28 82F/79F Precip 10%
Sun Apr 29 82F/79F Precip 10%

Not too shabby. This is typical spring weather in Aruba. The summers are hot and rainy
Sat Jul 7 83F/80F Precip 11%

The winters cold and dry
Sat Jan 14 81F/78F Precip 9%

If you are attending this year's conference, dress appropriately for the season. You'll find me training on the lazy river in case it gets added to the Olympics.

Jimmy is a nice name, but you're a puke! Hope you and the fams have a great time in Aruba. What time is it?!!!

Jimmy Snyder

Who cares. I'll send some warm to Maine if I have any to spare.

Stinker!!

Evo

You chose the hottest day to do roof repairs? It's going back down into the low 60's (61 as high Sunday). What am I going to do with you?

Tar is easier to work with when it's hot. I had to wait for yesterday but didn't think it was going to be that hot. My sun burn is feeling better after using a Aloe Vera lotion.

It's 90+ degrees here (in the shade) with oppressive humidity. The forecast is for ~90 again tomorrow, and even more humidity and afternoon T-storms (perhaps severe). We usually don't get these temperatures until August at least. With my breathing problems, I find it hard to walk my dog in this crap. Unfortunately, he is going through a spell of intestinal distress, so he needs more walks than normal.

Aye...it was 85ish at 9am here, lawn is already stunted, supposed to get mid 90s, not including heat index. This is more like August for us too, makes me wonder what August is going to be like? 110F+? Going to need to migrate north, perhaps above the Arctic circle....

It could be tough. We hardly ever get anything resembling winter here, and the summer heat at the end of spring makes me fear for my garden. Even worse, the bugs that normally get killed off in the winter cold are out in force. Not good.

94 in the shade with high humidity. So glad I don't live in NYC or Philly! All that pavement will keep pumping out the heat back out into the evening hours.

Insanity

Humidity is low 33%, so not as bad as it could be. Reportedly its suppose to let up after tonight. Its never good when you get up in the morning and its already 80+ and the sun is just rising. One reason I want to build a proper hobbit hole.

It was over 100F in our back yard today, and it's supposed to be even hotter tomorrow.

My son said the temperature had dropped to 97 F at 5:30 pm.

nitsuj

Infrared on shaded concrete at 6:15 was 98.9f

humidity is only 47% but with this heat the indexed temp is 108ish.

turbo

Almost back to 90 again, today, but with brutal humidity. I don't know if we'll hit the mid-nineties like yesterday, but we're under the gun for T-storms this afternoon/evening. Not good, because this road is about the last place in the area to regain power, once it is out.

George Jones

Mainly sunny and predicted high of 24 C (75 F) here today.

turbo

Just about 90 in the shade now (and still climbing) and the humidity is horrible. I have both AC units running and I can't manage to get the RH below 50%. In fact, it's going up again. This is a sticky day. We don't suffer through this stuff until August in normal years. It may be time to move to Canada - someplace in the far-northern reaches of Ontario or PQ.
