I was stupid enough to go lay out and work in my tan with one of my kids(daily ritual for her) and I was sizzling. 
 

You know what happens when they make pork rinds?  That was me. Bacon was frying 

Tomorrow we cook eggs and bacon on the sidewalk at 10 AM?

I've kinda gotten used to this heat. Heat indexes of 110 no longer feel that hot anymore. I guess it's due to our climate becoming like Florida since 2016

Probably. It doesn't "shock" me at all walking out into it, thats for sure.

Go mow the lawn or something and its a different story lol.

Did it rain? Went in a took a nap around 2:30 with a clear radar. Got up at 4 and noticed windows fogged up. Went outside and noticed about a half in of rain in bucket and still a clear radar. Weird

It was a "your back yard" special. It quickly disintegrated.

Even in an epic heat wave with sinking air all over, you manage to score.

This summer has made up for the years of every summer storm missing me to the north by 5 miles. It's like a steamy jungle out near my corn stands. My garden is happy about the nearly .60" that fell just in my yard.

Back up to 94. DP is at least 80 if I had to guess. Maybe 82-83 about 45 minutes ago next to corn stand.

The National Weather Service in Baltimore MD/Washington has
issued an Excessive Heat Watch, which is in effect from Monday

* Impacts...Hot temperatures and high humidity may cause heat
  illnesses to occur.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out
of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors. Young
children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles
under any circumstances.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When
possible reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or
evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke. Wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing when
possible. To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent
rest breaks in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone
overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location.
Heat stroke is an emergency! Call 9 1 1.

CDC recommends that if you need to go to a cooling center, wear a
cloth face covering. While you are there, wash your hands with
soap, or use hand sanitizer, often. Face covers should not be
used by children under the age of 2. They also should not be used
by people having trouble breathing, or who are unconscious,
injured, or can`t remove the mask themselves.

An Excessive Heat Watch means that a prolonged period of
dangerously high temperatures is possible. Prepare for extreme
temperatures and high humidity which would create a situation in
which heat illnesses are expected.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When
possible, reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or
evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke. Wear light weight and loose fitting clothing when
possible and drink plenty of water.

To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks
in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by
heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke
is an emergency - call 911.
