Heat wave

[XYZ 2154]

100-105 F every day? WTF is wrong with the weather? Are we gonna have another summer of 2011?

[bschoolprof 6252]

Yeah, this is fucking bullshit. We had about two weeks of real spring and now it’s hot as fuck and were not even to June yet. Fuck everything. 

[Larry T. Spider 1746]

Baseball regional will end me.

[DaggerHorns 3083]

Not even June. I think we’ll have a scorcher for many many days this year. Was it 2011 when it was triple digits for more than 60 days in a row?

i feel like we’re on pace for something like that or worse.

[Message Board User 12395]

Yep 2011 all over again.  Sucks.  That summer was an absolute bitch.

 

[Neonmoon 38129]

2011 was hell on earth. 

 

[Parliament 14255]

Was 88 degrees in northern North Dakota today. Won't have highs below 80 until Tuesday.

[Pato del Muerto 52489]

Now I get to point and laugh for the next 4-5 months at your misery. Highs in the 60s and 70s as far as the weather app goes out.  

[RD3 64]

What's the root cause (not global warming but more specific) for this heat now?  Is it because of lack of rain this spring?

[Patricio Swayze 17058]

Meh, I’ll do what I do every summer: swim, enjoy cold beverages, do the usual stuff outside then cool off with a/c or cool shower, eat some bbq, swim some more. Choose this everyday over cold weather for months.

Jet stream has bent way up into Canada. The allows heat from Mexico and moisture from the gulf to pour up across the middle of the country.  It’s been in the 90s in fucking Minneapolis.

Maybe we do need a wall then. 

[miguelito 11262]

This is a bit better than the biblical floods we've had on some recent Memorial Day weekends.

Should have titled this “Texas Heat Wave”. 

Now you’ve left the door open for the jackass posters who live in Wyoming, Minnesota, the Dakotas, etc to tell us how awesome their summer is while conveniently forgetting their home sucks shit the other eight months a year.  

[Gardner Barnes 1562]

In for the 100 days of 100 degrees.

Let’s break some records bitches!

[zork 629]

This says hotter than normal June, then perhaps cooler than normal July for the Texas area.

It was 90 days actually. I believe the first one was in mid June however. Not a good sign for this summer.

This is gonna suck, like your mom

[Deej 76759]

I cracked yesterday and had Amazon deliver an above ground pool. I don't care how white trash it looks. Floating around in that thing with a beverage is fantastic. Fuck this heat.

Sir, I'll have you know my home is warm and comfy all winter. (I burn buffalo chips.)

[Guest Lobo]

Yeah, we're "supposed" to have a brutal June, but then an average July-September.  But we'll see.  Anxious for an update from PhDhorn

Gross. I’m gonna try to not be out of the a/c longer than the walk from the house to the car for about 6 months.

It is pretty awesome. Enjoy the triple digits, Ill enjoy the upper 70s-mid 80s the rest of the week.

Comfortable low 70’s here in SoCal.  But it is that way all year round.

The NOAA climatology page is not quite so optimistic:

July-August-September looks hotter'n Hades.

I'm seeing 108 in Dallas next Sunday...that looks fun.

[Brisketexan 105094]

Oh...another 2011. How....delightful.

[swraith 346]

This mother fucking summer is gonna burn.

[XYZ 2154]

By July of the 2011 summer, I started having thoughts that death wouldn’t be such a bad alternative to “that”.

[Shmitty 112]

What sucks, is the windows in my truck won't roll down and I have no AC in my truck.  Driving is going to suck donkey balls.

When my truck AC was busted, I at least had the window option.

Of course, I burned the shit outta my left arm that way...you gotta be careful.

[Shmitty 112]

I don't know what I'm going to do.  Windows are stuck up and my vents only blow warm air.

Not in the McKinney/Frisco area.  And not if you are starting out in a new sales career.  

[Patricio Swayze 17058]

I don't know what I'm going to do.  Windows are stuck up and my vents only blow warm air.  

Here are some options:

1. Fix A/C
2. Fix Windows
3. Get a new vehicle
4. Smash windows

I’ll send my paypal info in a DM.

Sure, it's a Casio.  Don't think it will add much to my estate.

I had a job interview in June of 1995 in Addison back when I drove a truck with no A/C.  I think I might have stopped sweating by the time the interview was over. Amazingly, I got the job.

[DaysOff 7947]

Four drownings in the last 3 hours in western DFW. Don’t go inside to grab a fork, take a piss, or even to walk around the side of the house to fart in private. Keep your eyes on your kids at all goddamned times. Fucking fuck.

Is this true? Because that's fucking awful.

[Celery Man 20934]

I did a bunch of yard work today and it was hot as fuck.  Did it because it’s going to be hotter than fuck forever now.

[Larry T. Spider 1746]

I would run up a credit card bill on repairs before I drove a car in Texas with no ac.

[TexArcher 37774]

As uncomfortable as this summer is doubtless gonna be, I just hope no one in Central Texas has to deal with wildfires again.  Seven years later and I still don't like driving out 71 and seeing the remnants of that shit.
