"Official" 100 + degree days are pretty uncommon in most of Georgia. Atlanta is relatively high above sea level compared to most of the south. And of course when the "official" temperature is 98 it is pretty reasonable to assume there is a heap of 100+ degree readings in town.
Interesting take there.
Sometimes the "unofficial" temperature can be 8.58° above the "average" temperature, right? Even if "official" temperatures are nowhere close to that. Sometimes we convince ourselves we are in the midst of a terrible, terrible heatwave when we aren't. I guess it was an "unofficial" heatwave.
Looking at the temps in Augusta the past few days I don't know how you just haven't up and spontaneously combusted already.

And in fairness Augusta is one of the 2 or 3 hottest locations in the entire state.

Maybe, but it damn sure didn't have a heatwave last Summer. In fact, it was pleasant compared to most Summers. Some people were convinced otherwise, though.

Yeah, just ignore it. It'll go away.
You were wrong, and you will never admit it.

Half right. I won't admit not being wrong. A year later and the numbers have not changed....according to the NWS it was about 1.1 degrees hotter in the Augusta area from June of 2023 - August of 2023 than the average prior to 2023. It was hotter than hell just like it is now and will be next year most likely. Hotter than hell is neither qualitative nor quantitative and in almost a year some folks can't understand that....

The rare thing about yesterday's weather in ATL wasn't that it broke 100, it's the extremely low humidity we had. It was actually comfortable in the shade. I'll take 100 with low humidity over 90 with high humidity any day. Georgia hardly ever gets that low humidity in the summer, only in the Fall.

Since legend linked one of the threads i was thinking about i posted it there too.

The low humidity is what allowed it to get as hot as it did.
