Moms View Message Board: General Discussion: Archive August 2007: Can't take this HEAT!!
I am SO ready for *fall*! At 6:30 this morning, it was 86 degrees. Supposedly by 9 AM it will be at or near 100. We have broken heat records here this week, and this weekend is supposed to be worse! It is like stepping into a blast furnace when you go outside.
I understand. Even in Va beach we are having higher then normal temps. The water in our pool is HOT...its so unreal.Right now we are at around 80 at 8:30am. I love summer, its my favorite time of year, but this is a little "too" hot for me. I think we have gotten to around 99 here in Va Beach. It is hotter the further you go out though.
AMEN! We are miserable in Alabama. It is 8:00 and 81. We will be in the 100's, and the humidity makes it feel even worse. Yesterday it "felt like" 107!!!
I'm sorry you guys are having such heat. It's only in the 80's here this week, but man when we were in Vegas and it was 93 at 7 in the morning, WOW! Even Panama wasn't that hot! I feel for you. Hugs and stay cool!
AMEN again! It's been so hot here for almost 10 days straight. The humidity here is TERRIBLE. Heat index is over 100 everyday, and 107 one day last week. It seems like we haven't played outside forever. You walk to the mailbox and break into a sweat. Our A/C hasn't been able to keep up the last three days and it's new! By afternoon, it's 3-4 degrees higher than the setting. I miss opening my blinds and curtains but I don't want to let the heat in. UGH.
The heat index has been 110+ - on the news this morning, they predicted 110-120 this weekend! YIKES!
The heat has really beed bothering me this year too. It seems like our humidity has been bad this year. Today it's drizzly and cool for the time being and I'm so happy! I can't wait for Fall. Although, next week, we'll be off to the beach again, but atleast there is a breeze there!
In WI, the last few days have been cooler, but it hasn't been that comfortable because the humidity is still high. I can't wait for fall's lower humidity!
Karen, we are right there with you. Though, I feel I can't complain since we've had a mild summer. This is the first week in the 100's.
Yikes! I can't believe the heat you are all dealing with. We are used to have days in the high 90's or low 100's at this time of year but it cools off every night. We've got a forecasted high of 96 today but it's only 70* at 8am. I hope things cool off for you soon!
Yep...that's why I'm looking forward to our move up north next weekend. Highs in the 70-80s and lows in the 50-60s. Aaaaahhhhh!
The heat has been terrible, 101 and 102!!! Today we have some relief it is "only" 91. Gosh i wish i had your temps Pam!!
Right now its 91 and very cloudy here in Va Beach. Even if you are outside for like 2 minutes, you sweat like a big LOL...oh my the humidty is high.
Oh Mom2three, those aren't my temps now. I only live an hour from Karen and I'm in the land of the 110 heat index. BUT, I'm moving to Wisconsin next week and those are the temps there. Can't wait!
The AC is broken in my building at work, and we're holding steady at 100F. Temps inside are around 85F, and people are getting faint. This is SO miserable, and we won't have functioning AC until the end of the month at least, and even then only in one quad.
We are at 82 right now, with a dewpoint of 61. So, it's nice and sticky, even if it's not THAT hot.
Hazy, Hot and Humid here too. That's normal around here, but these high 90s temperatures are a bit too hot for me. Like Jackie, our pool water is over 90. Thank God for AC.

It's 11:30 pm, and although it's only around 70*, the humidity level is 85%. I'm in Ontario, but our heat and humidity are very high! It's been 100* every afternoon for the past couple of weeks. It sounds as if it's going to cool off a little bit in a few days. We need a big thunderstorm to break this humidity!
Weather Underground says 71, with a dewpoint of 62. I'd like the dewpoint to be about 54 or lower. It was in the 70's earlier today (and foggy too!)
Pam.......
And Dawn, the temps at the Lakefront airport are actually cooler than other areas.........LOL
Yeah, I kind of got that! LOL! Even if the temps aren't quite right, it's still a high dewpoint that goes with the temp and that's the icky part.
OH - and *if* you were ever planning on visiting this area, I'd recommend doing it between late October and early April............at least you won't melt during that time. Gives you a perfect *excuse* to only come around Mardi Gras, or in the fall, when there are so many festivals.... LOL
At Audubon Park yesterday, it was 100 degrees.
After our heatwave this week, we are only to get to 81 today.. What a difference. The humidity is still high. I went out walking with one of the dogs at 6:30am and the air was really thick.
We actually went to the French Quarter today. UGH! We had to pick up my Michalopolous prints from the framer on Decatur St. (outskirts of the Quarter) where they were being reglassed with UV protective glass. Initially, we were going to go into the Quarter and have lunch, but simply walking from the parking lot 2 blocks away took everything out of me, and we picked up the prints and came home. It was in the high 90's, and felt it. Just walking 2 blocks there and 2 blocks back, I have sunburned legs!!!!
Oh ugh. Sarah and I got up and watched the sunrise this morning. The sun comes up about 5:50am and that's right when we got there. The temp was about 70, at the time. We took the dog with us, and when we were done taking pictures, we walked with her on the big sidewalk next to Lake Michigan. It was so nice. In the afternoon, it got up into the high 80's and with the sun, Jasmine would have been too hot, since she's got black fur. I'm glad we were able to walk her when it was cooler out.
