102 for the high today at MDT, which is 16 degrees above normal. We did Not beat the record of 104 set back in 1966.

I just had to make way for the local porta john for a heat related blowout, if you know what I mean. It must have been a hundred and forty degrees inside that f****** thing. That turned my day real s***** quick no pun intended.

101.1. At least my feels like went from 114 to 111. Had to go out onto the deck to clip some chives. Even though I soaked my deck plants early this morning the poor things just gave up.

As of 5pm no Chester County professional stations have hit 100 degrees the highest was at the Longwood Gardens DEOS with 99.3 degrees. All stations were between 95 and 99 degrees

Or they were aggressive with their watering the lawn limiting the heat increase due to dry conditions

I would prefer it start Raining Blood

still holding at 100 at 6 pm. amazing.

How do scientists explicitly account for urban heat when measuring Earth's global temperature to ensure that local heat islands do not skew data on global climate trends?

CAMs have been pretty bad with this stuff. But it's always been their biggest struggle. Remnant MCV-type initiation.

Mby highs: 7/1 - 100 7/2 - 101

Same. No way I'm fishing in this heat.

Some locally hotter temperatures are possible. Saturday will be a few degrees cooler, but still very hot. Some showers or thunderstorms are possible, especially late in the day. Sunday will turn a bit cooler with readings returning to near normal levels. Somewhat below normal readings with highs in the lower 80s are likely early next week. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +3.1°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +1.8°C for the week centered around June 24. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +2.60°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +1.37°C. The ongoing El Niño will continue to strengthen through the summer. The SOI was -1.91 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.539 today.

101.7 on my pws in suburban sprawl hellacape next to a field with corn planted. Easton's meso hit 98, did not look at Easton airport which would be closer to downtown Easton vs the meso which is at the wwtp on the Choptank

Yeah good call. This morning especially felt cooler than I would’ve guessed going into Day 2. Those multiple rounds that moved through last night seemed much more developed than any model had, even short term.

Just noticed Mt. Holly's broad brush EHWarning through 8 p.m. Sat.

Nammy 850 trend right up to the analysis. Mid level temp gradient def tickled southward

My weather station hit 99.9 for the high. My OCD is destroying me right now

I tried to water the plants but at 10 minutes got dizzy and had to stop and run cold water over my head

After this stretch it's safe to say my trout fishing is over until late September.

Those were pretty robust MCSs that blew threw. That could've been enough to shove the 850 gradient southwest a bit.

Yup. The 4012 is up there on static display. For a bit, they parked the operating Big Boy next to the static one.

High of 98. Dewpoints tho. Currently 97/83.

My PWS at home registered a high of 103.5 F today, around 5:00 PM. When I left work at 5:30, my shaded car thermometer parked on blacktop registered 107 F, in full shade for several hours. The car thermometer had only dropped to 103 F by the end of my 15-minute drive home. Conclusion: It is hot.

So what happened? There is a big difference between 98 and 102 scheduled for my area.
