Chinook Posted Monday at 12:29 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:29 AM My brother is out on a road trip for nearly a month. He sent me pics from Yellowstone. I bet he is baking in the heat, if he's not high up in altitude right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted Monday at 01:30 AM Share Posted Monday at 01:30 AM Sunday 7/12/26: all-time records were broken or tied in these places in the NW US and I’m guessing there are others that I missed: 1) Wide stretch of S MT (450 miles long): ALL-TIME RECORDS TIED OR BROKEN SITE HIGH TEMP PREVIOUS ALL-TIME RECORD PERIOD OF RECORD BEGINS BILLINGS 111 108 (7/14/2002) 1934 LIVINGSTON 105 105 (8/5/1961) 1948 MILES CITY 115 111 (6/26/2012) 1937 SHERIDAN 109 107 (7/27/2021) 1907 BAKER 110 109 (7/25/2024) 1998 2) N UT ..ALL-TIME RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE SET AT SALT LAKE CITY UT A RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE OF 109 DEGREES WAS SAT AT SALT LAKE CITY, UT TODAY. THIS BREAKS THE OLD DAILY RECORD OF 105 DEGREES SET IN 2002. THIS IS ALSO A NEW MONTHLY AND ALL-TIME HIGH TEMPERATURE RECORD FOR THE SITE.

smokeybandit Posted Monday at 02:42 PM Share Posted Monday at 02:42 PM Kind of funny that an "all time" record doesn't even span 80 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted Monday at 03:45 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:45 PM 1 hour ago, smokeybandit said: Kind of funny that an "all time" record doesn't even span 80 years. Yeah, the wording does sound kind of funny. Obviously, nobody can ever say what the hottest, coldest, etc. of all time/ever is in any location since that can’t possibly be known. But saying something is an “all-time record” in a location is, of course, totally different and is what the NWS is referring to. Now I’m going to get more technical: whereas one can’t possibly know the hottest or coldest ever in a location, they can know the hottest or coldest ever in a city (I’m saying “city” not “location”) if records have been kept since the city’s founding. Do you see the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeybandit Posted Monday at 07:52 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:52 PM Nothing to cope about. Just a lot of these cities have records going back at least 100 years, some into the 1800s. Just funny to see one that's only 1948. You can go back to being a Chicago lurker after your snipe attempt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted Monday at 09:58 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:58 PM It's impressive they could beat the Dust Bowl temperatures in Montana edit: Billings has no data from July 1934 when they could have been the hottest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
