We have extreme heat issued for the whole week. They said for people to stay in and stay cool. The thing that gets me it is happening in areas they normally do not get this hot. The thing is we are used to this in Texas. It is the humidity combined with the heat that is killer.

We had some pretty toasty temperatures in teh upper 90's earlier in teh week...followed by 67 degrees. Gotta love New England weather

I'm glad Delaware is next to the Atlantic ocean. We can easily cool off.

God. By the time the sea breeze hits Maryland, it's hot and smells like... Delaware. Lucky...

Being shaded by mountains at my house it's about 90 average. However it has gotten up to 98 at ceartain parts of the day before.

I took off Thursday to go camping, and got back this afternoon. On Thursday here, it was hot and humid until I backed out of the garage, when it started pouring its butt off, and it rained hard all the way to the Lehigh Tunnel (gateway to the Pocono Mountains). On the other side of the tunnel it was just cloudy. Lucky for me, but I just got my campsite all set up when it started raining there. Friday was cold as heck and drizzly (low 60's for highs, mid 50's overnight, brrr...), I was in the tent for a good part of the day, bored, but then yesterday and today were glorious, low humidity, sunny days... perfect. Looks like more typical mid-August heat coming for this week, though, here.

w00t! Now its just the opposite, the low last night was in the 40's and I left half the windows in the house open. Now its like 60 in here.

I think the crappy summer weather has finally been evicted for the year.

Now begins my favorite time of year - I'm hoping for a long, long, fall season!

Good riddance summer!

I hear that. The forecast for the next 10 days is high 70's/low 80's and that I can deal with. Mid-to-low 70's for the high temp would be even better.

That's good to know. I need to visit the Wentzville, MO assembly plant one day this week before I take off for Europe.

A record low here in the Chicago area last night (39 degrees, lower in the suburbs), maybe 90 by midweek. I guess that's why they call it weather!

I thought this thread was about the girl that works on the 6th floor of my office building: That's excessive heat warning!!!

I think were in for a bad winter. All of NA I mean.

Well it's good that I won't be in NA then. :AH-HA_wink: Der Börger does not fancy winter!

38 tonight.... which reminds me, I need to change out the furnace filters.
