I'm generally a summer lover......hate the cold winters here in NE Ohio, but when my car thermometer hit 101 yesterday (a new record) that was a bit much even for me! Add the tropical humidity to that and I've had enough.

We do have a cold front coming over us later today (with storms) and tomorrow it's only supposed to get up to about 70 degrees with lake effect showers!

It has finally cooled down in Seattle after one of the hottest summers on record. At last all seems right with the world now.

95 but that's summer and I will not complain about it because it's only matter of a few months before we find ourselves in the deep freeze......and people start complaining about that.

I live in upstate NY, where our temps are at heatwave warning levels. Our temperatures are higher than my daughter’s in Orlando, and my granddaughter’s in Tampa. In the past, late August weather would be slightly brisk, especially in the early hours. Today, the temperature at 6 am was over 80. Climate change is real.

Love summer, we can get thru this.

Supposed to be only in the 80's tomorrow, so I can deal with this heat.

Give me the heat. I can't take cold, ice & snow. We have had a very wet summer so not much summer weather.

That's a daily thing in Tx from July thru Aug. This yr it was from mid june and it will run thru Aug. We can't figure out what the hoopla is about.

We had 1 day of 105, last yr the high was 108'

Been cool this yr. LOL

I know and I feel it here in central Texas, only try 50 days of 100 heat. I want the snow too. We have to send kids home early because some of the old school house have no air conditioning, and neither do some of the school buses. That is just unacceptable, those schools could have been upgraded as well as school buses. Just my opinion.

Yesterday and today were oppressive, and I've had enough !! I never complain about the cold, and I long for fall and yes, winter.

@Krimpette I think I've posted with you before and we both are from the same general area (N. VA). I moved to my present location a year ago and to get healthier I've tried to get out and walk each day. I've done so unless it's raining hard, snowed or brutal cold where I'm fearful I may fall - BUT this is the first year I haven't walked just bc it's hot. Today and the last 2 days have been weather alerts and stifling out so I've stayed inside in the A/C. Color me a wimp!!

@Financialgrl Greetings! Actually, I'm from the MD suburbs! But close enough!. I don't blame you for not walking in the heat. I'm thankful that we have daily exercise classes available at my local senior center. I can go in the morning and then stay indoors the rest of the day on these brutal days!
