Locally, hottest day of 2022 and possibly in a few years. Below off NWS site at 5pm.

Inside my old 2-story 4-plex townhouse with AC turned off for 2 decades, while it shows 104F at my front door in the shade, it is just 80F here downstairs where I'm typing, yet 85F a few feet higher at this ceiling, 84F in one upstairs bedroom. I have a consumer level 4 station wireless weather system in my unit that is very useful for understanding where room areas warm and why for controlling and coping with temperatures.

It rained lightly to moderately all of Monday. It was still raining early this morning, but either has stopped or is a very light drizzle. Roads are still wet. 1.7 inches (4.3 cm) in my rain gauge. On the cool side of seasonable temps - FINALLY!
 
Now at 12pm Tuesday, already showing 107F locally on wunderground while here downstairs is just 80F and 81F upstairs. It is late afternoon into the evening when my unit that only gets pm sun with its AC turned off becomes warmest. Yesterday that peaked at 83F and expect today will be slightly worse. This afternoon will use the cool water fillable mattress noted above.
 
We got 3 inches of rain the last two days and it is raining once again. We went from a drought to too much rain in a day or two. The grass and weeds are in heaven and my work is cut out for me in a few days.
 
Reached 109F here just outside my door in shade, the hottest its been during the 5 decades I've lived here. And nearby on wunderground showed even higher nearby readings. At 4:30pm when it was 108F (humidity 15%), I decided to see a movie, escaping into a cool theater. But instead of driving the one mile for a challenge I fast walked it in the peak heat. Once inside the cool theater I didn't sweat at all showing how well I endured the walk. The theater guy after collecting my $5 ($5 Tuesday) gave cheap me a free glass of ice water.

Missed the first few minutes of Bullet Train a comedy parody of action movies. But all it was, was an excuse for a series of well crafted scene jokes. After the movie, the 7pm temperature was only 93F. I walked the whole way back without hardly sweating however as soon as I got into my residence that was still 87F, sweat began dripping. The movie loosely was just what I needed after a holiday weekend in which I spent 2 days enjoying an elaborate Asian Indian wedding with a full ethnic and cultural mix of others with much socializing so was rather burned out in several ways.
 
There's been Torrential rain all night. ⚡🌧️⛈️🌩️⛈️

My TV froze in the middle of the programme I was watching on Discovery.. and it wouldn't restart so I shut it off completely .. then Amazon Echo froze too, and despite unplugging and restarting it still wouldn't connect to the Internet.. so I just turned everything off manually downstairs instead of electronically and came upstairs, and then firefox had frozen, so I could only get online using Chrome...

I can't hear the rain battering the windows now, so it may have eased off.. can't see because it's 11.30pm and I have all the blinds closed

Today Friday, supposedly the last day before the all time record setting heat wave had been forecast to wane, was supposed to locally top out today at 103F but the local wunderground dot com reading now near 4pm PDT is 108F tying the all time record set 2 days ago. The thermometer outside my door that just moved into the sun 2 hours ago is 105F and certain to head higher. Making this all the more bizarre is Hurricane Kay is moving up from Baja and expected to push heavy tropical rains over the Sonora Desert while causing immediate coastal areas of San Diego to reach rare 3-digit levels. My unit without AC, indoors upstairs is showing 84F and downstairs where am typing is 81F but like to rise now with my unit in sun. Last 2 days I escaped to a local theater and today may go to our library.
 
We've had wonderful weather here in NW Lower Michigan for a week. High 60s/70s and today and tomorrow a little over 80F, low humidity
the entire time. Love it.
 
It's a beautiful night here. Currently in the 60s. I finally have my windows open and there is fresh air coming in. My bird is enjoying it as well sitting on her draw bridge. It will be in the upper 50s over night.
 
10 day forecast shows highs in the mid 90s and lows in the low 70s.. It appears the summer heat is finished for this year 😀
