I like the heat, but when the Dewpoints approach 80° it gets to be a bit much. Same thing goes for the Winter though, I mean who really likes temps in the teens with a -25° windchill and no snow?

It can get pretty intense when you combine this type of humidity with heat. The strongest combo I ever experienced was 7/5/99 with 100 degrees and a 75 dew point yielding a 114 heat index. It's the summer extreme version of a winter 0 degrees and 40-50 mph winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

July of 95 I recall a heat index of 123. I Think it was 98 so the dewpoint must've been 82 Actually it was worse and that was at 7pm 102.9 °F 121.3 °F 78.1 °F 45% 29.82 in 7.0 mi WNW 17.3 mph - N/A Overcast 99.0 °F 128.2 °F 84.0 °F 62% 29.81 in 5.0 mi West 16.1 mph - N/A Drizzle 98.1 °F 127.2 °F 84.0 °F 64% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So July 99 was my highest heat index. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't feel so bad..I rode my bike for a few blocks on the LB Boardwalk and started to get a pins and needles sensation so I retreated back into the air conditioning. I lasted out on the boardwalk about as long as the 0 degree 1/21/85 with 40-45 mph winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 There is nothing redeeming about this crappy weather unless you enjoy feeling like a disgusting swamp or can manage to be by a pool or Beach. The air feels toxic which I imagine it is given the air quality and it's useless unless we get good storms out of it which is unlikely. Let's not forget how dangerous this is for a lot of people and I'm sure our power grids are taking a beating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
