Canadian Paul 93 Posted July 28, 2006 People are dropping like flies in California too. Glad I'm spendng the summer in Canada then, where the "Hot Hot Heat" is the mid-20s and everyone still complains. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrunoBrimley 85 Posted July 29, 2006 meanwhile here in the soon to be Baked Apple the buds are falling from the trees and kicking up a pollen fest which is really itching my nose. The heat wave here is officially on with no relief expected until late next week. Oh well at least I'm not in Astoria. That said though, if I seem to disappear just blame Con Edison as they are terribly unreliable at anything other than electrocuting innocent pedestrians and their animals (oh and of course raising the rates every frigging month) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notaguest 16 Posted June 26, 2011 well it is for us.We're not used to the heat.It's only expected to last 2 or 3 days though so maybe thats not long enough to kill anyone off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Bearer 5,980 Posted June 26, 2011 well it is for us.We're not used to the heat.It's only expected to last 2 or 3 days though so maybe thats not long enough to kill anyone off It'll be over by Tuesday, and I'd hardly call 2 days of high tempreatures a heatwave.

Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted July 22, 2011 I just had a phone conference with someone in Saint Louis for work. After converting his temperatures report from Fahrenheit to Celsius, I understand it is a balmy 37 degrees over there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CarolAnn 926 Posted September 4, 2011 If it's 37C in Alaska, then yeah, I'd start to worry... Coming in late to this one, but we've had a couple of months of temps well over 100F as well as no rain of consequence for longer than that. In August 2011, the average high temperature was 104F with a high of 110F. July's average maximum was 102F with a high of 106. The last time we had any appreciable rain, which still wasn't shit, was June 21. Just call me a pussy Yank - then you can pay my electric bill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
