Maxed out at 100.2° which is good for the all time high on my station. I've only had it installed for two years, so not all that surprising. Officially hot though!

98-99F

95*F still did manage to happen after all at the last possible moment (5pm obs). So that's 3 total for Detroit this heatwave..

Another beautiful day out there!

When I lived in Arizona, 115+ was somewhat common in Phoenix, but the hottest temperature I've ever experienced was 128 in Bullhead City. That was just crazy hot, and pretty much too hot for even this summer loving warmanista. The heat radiating up from the asphalt parking lots almost literally burned my legs.

It never got above 100 here. At least not yet.

Didn't take long to increase from 65 mph to 145.

I had to eat my words pretty hard off the jump… I really thought we hadn’t hit 100 since 2012. Anyway, was out in the sun from 7-11am. Usually not a big deal, but that totally took me out. Just woke up from like a 3 hour recovery nap. Seriously draining.

May get clipped with that small cell in Morris county

Chester County borders Lancaster, which is included in our "poster coverage area." It's also closer to central PA than where a few others in our sub are from. (And they are welcome here as well) I don't understand why people get so upset over location. It's a weather forum. Interestingly, everything that Paul posts is 100% weather content. No reason at all why that shouldn't be welcome here. If this is the culture we're trying to create here, I seriously need to just post in the sports threads. This thread is becoming increasingly insufferable.

Winds have veered to the SW FTW. 86.

At Wegmans the car reads 105

Those darn shitty forecasters

Fog bank over the Lake with a chilly breeze across town. TBH, it has been a few yrs since I can remember so much fog, and chilly air at the 4th of July. Testament to the cooler, drier wx in May n June up here. June ended avg only because of hvy rains at the end of the month. It's those warmer rains that really help raise the water temp. It happens faster than just a warm Sun. Just like in winter, air temps alone don't just cool off the water, but the cold rain/snowfall mixing in the surface waters which includes LER/S precip.

Little heat burst now, back up to 99.5. This bbq is going to suck

While I despise this weather to my core, I think I can empathize with the sun weenies now. I’m glad we didn’t get as crazy here….But I mean…. I’m curious to know what 120°F feels likes? Missed the bullseye. Fall line jackpot. Update: Yesterday, 6 hour max air temp. topped out at 97.2°F. Observation max for today is 96.8°F. Heat index was the same at 108°F. So, a tie.

The NWS had predicted a high of 95.0 for me today. Right now I am 98.9!

probably, but even half of that would be great.

102 in my part of Brooklyn, 96, down from 98 at Central Park. It’s good to see that the ASOS forest is still effective. After being out more than I should have today, I no longer wholly believe that wisdom is wasted on the young. When I was foolishly outside pursuing heat stroke, today my wisdom was home staying cool. stay well Rob, as always …..

It appears to be. NWS Mt. Holly has the daily record before today at 104F.

I hate seeing any of these World Cup games end on PK's.

102/76 **HI 120**

There's also a SPC Enhanced Risk area now for Southern MI, all the way from Lake Michigan to Detroit, for daamging winds. Funny enough, there are areas in the Enhanced Risk now that weren't even in the Slight Risk earlier. SPC mesoanalysis does indicate the atmosphere's finally recovering across Metro Detroit from this morning's outflow bubble as well...

My Cooperative Observation site (RSTM2) is making a run to 99° for the second day in a row.
