The car said 103° when I parked it this evening. Weather.gov said 94°. The car was on pavement, and a real weather reading takes place 5' above an unpaved surface. I split the difference. It was hot is all I know, with 46% humidity making it tolerable when hiking across the grocery store parking lot. Still, the outdoor workers and regular exercisers were out doing their things all day today.

I hobbled outside my building at work around noon today. It was sunny, comfortable temp/humidity, clean air, and with a refreshing cool breeze. The overnight low last night was 53 F, in case anyone was wondering.....

Leaves falling like crazy. Mother Nature, say it ain't so -- summer coming to an end. I love summer -- except for the hot spells.

Sunny and 86°F right now with a high forecasted a 88°F. Been a very nice week.
Will heat up next week. Monday's forecast is 103 and Tuesday's is 105. I'm enjoying the nice days while they're here. ![]() Last edited by Esteban; 08-24-2023 at 05:33 PM.. |

We're enjoying Gulf Coast-style humidity this evening. It's not bad now that the sun is down.

GLOBAL WARMING continues to punish the mid and southern portions of the country. This coupled with sporadic weather anomalies world wide.
We desperately need rain in Texas.... |

The start of a crappy week-end. I covered my veggie boxes and brought all my potted plants inside the garage.

Is there any indication that large-scale desalination is both a possibility and a long-term solution to shortfalls of rain?
---------------------------------------------------- It's more of the same today. However, if the forecast starting Sunday is any indication, this intense weather is over for the season. (fingers crossed) ![]()

After three months-plus of no rain, we finally got a bit last night. Not enough to register on the rain gauge and only for a few minutes, but wonderful.

Pretty nice today. Looks like we might have a spike week after next, but that could easily change.
We had our 100 degree day on Thursday, but it only lasted about an hour. We did set an all time record for the heat index at 120 and it was, in fact, very uncomfortable! This is the first time it has hit 100 in Chicago since July 2012 and the first time in 32 years it has hit 100 in August. That’s one of the things I like about Chicago weather. In Texas the temperature doesn’t decline at all in August. Most of the time you can see the temperature get cooler day by day in Chicago during the month of August.

Another heat wave, starting today. High is forecasted at 96°F today. All next week is in the 100s. Fall/winter can’t come soon enough, as far as I’m concerned.

A very nice week ahead in the forecast. Check Monday and Tuesday next week. I’m betting that goes down before we get there. If it happens it will be the first time it’s hit 100 here in September since 1960.
Not to get political, but for those of you who are especially concerned about global warming, check out the frequency of 100 degree days in Chicago since 1900. I don’t see evidence of an increasing occurrence. 1988, of course, was quite an anomaly when much, if not all, of the country experienced a heat wave that lasted about two weeks.

High heat warning started today at 10, thru Tuesday night around 9 pm.
Sunny and 72, not sure how I'm going to survive this.
