Psychguy Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago 39 minutes ago, Joshb32689 said: 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. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their AC must run nonstop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
