Its 12:20 am here in Houston and we are still at 85. Not as bad as some of you but it is to me. In the nineties everyday and we still have July and August to go through. August is usually the worse here. September will still be hot but at least October will be around the corner.

You have a lot of humidity there, no? At least here we have very low humidity (10% today), but the heat still really gets to me. It's like stepping out into a furnace. It makes me feel quite ill to be out in that sun for more than just a few minutes.
 

105 degrees today, a few clouds and slight breezes. Made it through our walk at the park with the dog, always carry water for him in summer. They say back to 80s this weekend. :fingerscrossed:
 
Its been another beautiful day here in Buffalo,one of the advantages living close to Lake Erie getting a nice breeze,temps in low 80's.
For the weekend and until Mon,we'll be experiencing unusually hot/humid temps in low 90's.The last time we had a 'heat wave' like this was in July'11,lasted a week Sue
 

Agggghhhh!!!! Major heat wave predicted here in upstate NY right through the week. Temps are going to be in the mid-90s (or higher) and heat indexes well into the triple digits. I live in an uninsulated brick house and once those bricks heat up the the July sun, it's like living in a pizza oven or a Devil's Island sweat box.

Due to the extreme heat wave, I did get out my old GE Carry-Cool AC and dusted it off. The last time I used it, it "peed" all over the floor, so I haven't used it in 3 or 4 years. I figured that problem might somehow be due to a disintegrated accordion panel, so I made a new panel out of duct tape. So far so good. I have to look on the positive side, though. At least I don't have to worry about my water pipes freezing!

10 percent humidity? I wish! North Central Florida and the humidity is about 200 percent temp is ... don't think I care. No matter what I do I'm soon dripping with sweat. The pool is 85 F and has become my refuge twice a day.

Climate change? As far as I can see the swings have gotten more radical and abrupt. I've lived here 60 some years and this year is the first time (!) I can recall when Florida has lived up to it's reputation of steamy days with intense rain showers in the early PM.
 
Yesterday we had another sunny/hot&humid day,it hit 92 here in Buffalo
This morning when I went on my early am walk it was already 78 with a breeze,thanks to living close to Lake Erie
Same weather forecast for next couple of days,look forward to the rain whenever it comes Sue
