Michele 1 #1 July 23, 2006 I'm curious. Yesterday was record breaking for most of California. In Burbank, where I live, we missed the all-time high by one degree - we checked in at 112/feels like 118. (The all time high record is 113, but in August...not July). Chatsworth, however, made it to 120. Dunno their feels like, but I guarantee you it was well into the 120s. So here is today's forecast... "Partly cloudy. A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs 105 to 115. Heat index readings 110 to 120 late this morning through this afternoon." We are under an extended hot weather watch, from 10 am to 8 pm. Right now, at 9:45, we are already at 88, cloudy and humid as all heck. I predict that we will have thunderstorms come through, and the high will be a new all time record (at least 114). So...what's it gonna be like where you are?

Michele 1 #3 July 23, 2006 Hang in there, Lisa...it's supposed to cool off to 100 tomorrow, and by Wednesday it is supposed to be in the upper 80s. Not sure I believe it, but it does give one hope. 'Course, it's also supposed to get back up into the 100s by next weekend...but we'll take the breaks where we can find them, right?

Michele 1 #5 July 23, 2006 Quotehope you and the furry ones enjoy your new A/C. It was so funny last night. I moved it into the bedroom to sleep, and stretched out. Not 5 minutes had passed before 4 furry bundles of heat had stretched out between me and the a/c...Esse put her face right in the blower part and just laid there, I swear, grinning from ear to ear. The other two lurked near it on the floor. Too damned funny. And we all managed to have a good sleep last night for the first time in weeks. YAYAY!! We are, indeed, enjoying Dad's generosity and the A/C...no doubt.

MF42 0 #11 July 23, 2006 I know everybody's going to despise me for posting this, but oh well... Forecast high of 80 degrees, but currently 72, so I think the forecast was a little too high. Had to put another blanket on the bed last night 'cause I was getting chilly.S'alright, I know my turn is coming. For whatever it's worth, last weekend was miserable.

Was going to go to Hollister today because it should be a bit cooler, but just didn't feel like it. Packing my new slippery canopy while sweating in the heat, no thanks.

skymama 37 #15 July 23, 2006 The Florida weather has already been posted, but I'll report what it was like last week when I was in the NC mountains. It was a downright lovely 82 degrees for the high on most days. We were doing outdoor activities every day and not sweating in July. I've never experienced that before! We were actually cold when we were jumping and sliding off waterfalls.

Michele 1 #18 July 24, 2006 Lisa, make room in that freezer, all right? Well...supposedly the worst is over for a few days. It's currently 92 - it hasn't been this cool this early in about a week...and Wednesday's forecast is to be mid 90s. That I can handle. It's this 112+ weather that just puts me out. Andrea, to you. Glad to hear you had a good time, but still. And to whomever is putting extra blankets on their bed, well, phooey to you.

lawrocket 3 #20 July 24, 2006 We hit 113 yesterday. This morning I stepped outsice at ten till six, and I was shocked at heat and humidity the likes of which I haven't experienced since summers with Uncle Sam. I checked and it was 91 degrees. We hit 113 again today. It sucked. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michele 1 #22 July 24, 2006 Yep, it's nasty all right. California - the entire state - is under a stage one electricity alert. We are to expect outages, and not to use major appliances until 8 pm...and we're on an "extended heat warning" as well. We are supposed to be cooling off, but I can't feel it yet...sigh. It's 91 right now, and the heat tends to peak around 6-7 pm...so we've got a long way to go to get through. OY!
