While I despise this weather to my core, I think I can empathize with 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 like?
 

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. 

My parents live in a suburb of Phoenix and summers down there are very brutal. While it’s a dry heat in theory, when the monsoon season begins dewpoints ramp up into the 60s and sometimes even 70s and that combined with temperatures of 105 to 110° is truly truly unbearable. Not to mention many nights do not drop below 90-95. In fact, one morning when I was there a couple years ago the overnight low was 97°. It’s truly bizarre to wake up in the morning and turn on the TV at 8 AM and see the temperature already over 100.

I’ve always wondered what electric bills are like there. Their AC must run nonstop.

Would be a bad night for outages...

Nearly 1,600 PECO workers, represented by IBEW Local 614, are scheduled to go on strike at 12:01 a.m. on July 4. If a new collective bargaining agreement is not reached, this will mark the first work stoppage in the 145-year history of the company. [1, 2]
