How’s the Weather Where You Are?
« on: June 12, 2019, 06:05:51 PM »
Today was blistering hot, it hit 99 degrees over by the airport and at least 97 degrees where I am.

The previous record today was 92 degrees, so yeah a record breaking day!!

My AC unit has been working overtime today!

And you Gents and any Ladies out there, how ‘bout y’all??

The weather forecasters in my area predict a more cooler summer than in previous years.  Last night it was in the 60s in my area.  Today, the mid-70s. For those on the metric system, that is about 23 C.   :thumbsup:  It is predicted to get warmer this coming weekend though.

We are lucky like that in Netherlands. No dangerous Animals/plants/weather to speak of.

Usually the amount of people killed due to nature (weather/plants/ animals) is <5 on a population of 17 million Dutchies.

Fun fact: The mosquito is the most deadly animal to us humans. It kills more than 2 million humans each year due to diseases it carries.
Nr 2 is the family of snakes, with 140.000 deaths worldwide.

11c and cloudy here as usual. Rain predicted tomorrow as usual. We might get to a heady 16c over the weekend.

12c here today, wet and windy, but the sun is just starting to come out. Where my wife is from in Western Ukraine, I saw a video the other day of everyone in shorts and T shirts and about 6" of snow, apparently they had a freak snow storm middle of the day and everyone was caught out in summer gear. Sure is some weird weather about recently.

Epic beautiful warm sunny New England weather even on the gray rainy days - best described as natural air conditioning in June high 60s F at night and mid to high 70s to low 80s F days - been riding my mountain bike every excuse I get - will be more hazy hot and humid in July and August "dog days" of summer. 

Stripers are running now then blues this summer (Giant Striped Sea Bass 10 to 50 lbs each spawn up rivers and Bluefish 5 to 20 lbs each).

Miss the NE weather but not the high taxes and high cost of living.

That’s such an important factor!

I love the Pacific Northwest and the natural beauty of my home state WA and my current state of Oregon.

But both states are being ruined by “progressives”. To me the Dems are now just Commies — high taxes and it never ends.

Might consider relocating to the East Coast such as Florida or the Mid West such as Ohio.

Today’s weather thankfully will be cooler, prolly about 85 degrees Fahrenheit.

Where are you located Chris?

The North West, not much of a summer so far yet this year, last year was very warm, hot in fact for a couple of months.

The weather today was about 30 degrees. A little bit windy an hour or so ago.

Very pleasant for relaxing on the beach and pretending to work.

A good day for the 'Internet Lifestyle'.

Hot winds, dusty and baking, with temperatures hitting 50C. It’s 2045 hrs right now and it’s 40C.
My SUV a/c isn’t coping too well at these temperatures. ????

In the Gulf.

This is also raising the temperature significantly.

Yes I read about that. Are you deployed there or a contractor of sorts?

Bet you’ll be happy to get back to cooler temps in England someday.

I just followed your link and then onto the Manchester link: https://wikitravel.org/en/Greater_Manchester

I rather think Greater Manchester is closer to 5m people than the 2.6m people stated. And the Trafford Centre is listed as a tourist attraction. Which is a bog standard US mall in most respects. And apparently, Salford is now a city (it ain't - it's more like the Bronx).  :chuckle:
