“Lookit the high for the day. Humidity was so high that you start sweating as soon as you step outside. It was Amazon hot today. ![]() .” 9:48:57 PM 7/20/05 “It was very hot and humid today and it supposed to be even worse this weekend! My parents air conditioner went out and my mom said it was 98 degrees in their house! They had to go 2 days without air.” 10:00:01 PM 7/20/05 “Yesterday I was out running errands, my car has a outside temp guage, it read 111. Fortuneatly it's very dry here! last edited: 7/20/05 10:12:48 PM” 10:12:08 PM 7/20/05 “Like an Oven!” 10:47:14 PM 7/20/05 “ODL? old dick limp?” 10:47:19 PM 7/20/05 “Oh Dear Lord” 10:49:35 PM 7/20/05 “OMG” 10:52:08 PM 7/20/05 “Oregon Driver's Lisence??” 1:25:37 AM 7/21/05 “Second hottest July in Denver history. Official high at the airport yesterday was 105! http://www.gjsentinel.com/news/content/gen/ap/CO_Heat_Wave_Colorado.html” 3:41:27 AM 7/21/05 “I was on 3 construction sites today, 2 in B'ham. I was only outdoors for maybe 2 hrs. After leaving the one in Huntsville I drank a quart of Gatorade in about 30 seconds. The last one was th 5th floor of a project before they poured the concrete. 50,000sf of exposed steel forms get pretty dang hot.” 5:49:36 AM 7/21/05 “Dang, I just noticed that the link showed a high of 100* yesterday. Nice.” 7:08:09 AM 7/21/05 “I use the same WeatherBug and our's read 107 for in town here.” 7:31:53 AM 7/21/05 “I was up at nearly 13000 ft. yesterday and it must have been about 85 up there, when I finished my hike yesterday my forehead was literally caked in salt.” 9:44:23 AM 7/21/05 But it's a dry heat..... “We've been bouncing between 114° and a cool 101° (todays weather) It's supposed to get back to 109° in a couple days. Humidity is around 65%” 9:56:22 AM 7/21/05 “It's going to 94 here, plus 86% humidity, building throughout the day, but not quite enough to make it rain. Ugh.” 10:15:58 AM 7/21/05 “Welcome to eastern NC Thursday: Partly to mostly sunny, hot and muggy with a heat advisory in effect and scattered afternoon and evening storms. Highs in the mid-upper 90s. Heat index will range from 105-110 degrees.” 10:19:24 AM 7/21/05 “Yep, sounds like NE Florida.” 10:20:01 AM 7/21/05 “It's hot in north Alabama too. Yesterday, I had to walk across the street to another building to attend a meeting. I think I got a sunburn just walking across the street!” 10:58:29 AM 7/21/05 “When you spend all day freezing your arse off, only to go home and freeze your arse off there, that first step out into actual warmth feels soooooooo good.” 11:00:13 AM 7/21/05 “I had to take my mom to Sam's club (her car died) and I swear I got a nice sunburn just trying to get to and from the car. I know Laurel did; her face is still pink from the trip. Yikes, poor little paleface.” 2:09:05 PM 7/21/05 “Top Ten George W. Bush Solutions For Global Warming 10. NASA mission to turn down the sun's thermostat 9. Federal subsidies to boost production of Cool Ranch Doritos 8. Fast track Rumsfeld's "Colonize Neptune" proposal 7. Convene Blue-Ribbon Committee to explore innovative ways of ignoring the problem 6. Let Hillary worry about it when she takes over 5. I dunno---tax cuts for the rich? 4. Give the boys at Halliburton 90-billion dollar contract to patch hole in ozone 3. Switch to celsius so scorching 98 becomes frosty 37 2. Keep plenty of Bud on ice 1. Invade Antartica” 9:00:19 AM 7/26/05 “I'd sign up to go to Antartica right about now.” 9:33:22 AM 7/26/05 “Whoa, what a difference, someone finally turned on the outside air conditioning in Denver, it's a cool 58 degrees today!” 9:50:33 AM 7/26/05 “Can you send some of that up here Bison? It was 87 degrees at 5 AM this morning. That plus the humidity was up to 100%.” 10:03:54 AM 7/26/05 “WK, you're in luck, that cold front is on it's way to Indiana, should get there this evening.” 10:05:46 AM 7/26/05 “104 on my back porch right now...” 4:50:57 PM 7/26/05 “We'll get the high heat tomorrow; barf. It'll be a good day to slather up with sunscreen and just hang out in my parent's pool to cool off. Of course local news just reported that with the higher temperatures tomorrow we can expect "some" rolling blackouts. Just effin' peachy.” 5:19:54 PM 7/26/05 “104? That sucks. I've got about 94 here in Springfield right now...” 5:21:27 PM 7/26/05 “I kinda liked the idea of putting a ring of sunshades in orbit around the earth to block some of the sunshine.” 8:43:55 PM 7/26/05 “In Omaha the heat wave ended yesterday. Went from 100 degrees to about 75 in an hour and a half. Plus we got a couple of inches of desperately needed rain. What a blessing! Our low tonight will be in the fifties.” 9:44:08 PM 7/26/05
