Blastfurnace 2024


Recommended Posts

Looking likely that tomorrow and/or Sunday will be hottest day of the rest of 2024. 96 in Houston. 100 in Austin. Gonna be 95 or above through next Wednesday or so, but things should get a little nicer towards next weekend. 

Extended stretch of warm, dry, and sunny ahead. Second Summer has begun.

Im convinced every time someone claims the summer is over on our annual blast furnace thread, it just tacks on two more weeks of summer. Wait until the highs are consistently in the 60/70's before opening up your cockholster and spouting off with this bullshit.

Was hanging out with some friends last night in their backyard, having a Sunday night drink.  It felt pretty nice... at least the bookends (morning/evening) are tolerable.  Middle of the day sucks.

Yeah. Hopped in the pool around 6:30 yesterday evening once the backyard was fully shaded. Felt pretty damn good. Water temp 88 and there was a decent breeze. Would have been a really pleasant evening to grill out if I didn't have other dinner plans.

And yet people that have lived here for decades still fall for "false fall" every year. 

The first September cool front typically lasts about 60 hours and then is promptly followed by at least 2 weeks where it feels like mid-August again. It's so predictable. 

Hot as shit this week, with temps peaking on Friday, when Austin may bump up against 100 again and Houston will be a toasty 95. Looks like the fever finally breaks a week from today.

Nasty out there today. Walked out of the gym at 8 this morning and it felt like the heat index was already pushing 90. Dashboard was reading 100 most of the way into work before settling at 95.

Several days of triple digit heat indices ahead before temps throttle down a few degrees starting Sunday/Monday.

SoCal will be in the 90s next week.

Dude, every time you mention the weather in SoCal, I feel compelled to point out that it still drops down to the low 60's when the sun is down. Unless you're talking about Palm Springs or something.

We would kill to have "heat waves" where the high is 93 (with low humidity) and the low is 62.

I’m trying to empathize and say it ain’t only Texas!!
