It just depends on the area or terrain. I've been in Oklahoma for work and it was 105 and I'd fly home and it's 93 but it felt hotter. It's all miserable imo above 90.

109 tomorrow, that’s just the temperature, not the heat index

Thats to the level where you have to shorten hours for construction workers, etc. You wont risk liability over those dang ole sun-rays.

How is it hotter in north Texas than south Louisiana? You’d think it would be hotter in BR or NOLA than DFW.

I spent late june and july in Cleburn Tx just south of Ft Worth back in 2003 and most days were around 110. My nokia melted onto my dashboard. I thought it was normal for that area to be that hot.

Have none of you ever been the Phoenix? I have a screenshot of it being 111 at 1030pm at night.

It's all relative though and what you're acclimatized to. I've lived places where the AVERAGE high is higher than what they've been in Dallas this week but, these days, 90 would kick my arse.

It was 100 at 10 pm Thursday night in Dallas.
I vividly recall the summer of 1980. That was when iron-on t-shirts were a big deal, and everyone had a shirt that read "I survived the summer of 1980" or some shite to that effect.
Summer 2011 had more days of 100-plus temps, though, at 71.
Our AC went out that summer of 2011 on a day it hit 114. It was Africa hot in the house and strange to sit here sweating, listening to locusts.
shite in the house got so hot that the new AC ran for like 8 hours straight to catch up. Even the furniture was hot.

We were in Rocky Mountain National Park two weeks ago, and its was 32 degrees and snowing one day. About four days later, we were traveling in a neighboring town and the temp hit 106! Crazy temp changes.

I call a heat wave of 95+ degrees right against a body of water and the gulf of Mexico a heat wave

And you kind of proved my point. 1980 is the GOAT for heat and this Summer is nothing.
Older Texans are not pussies.

Wasn't it 112F in 2013 for the LSU TCU game?
Posted on 7/21/18 at 11:11 am to crazycubes
It was 105.

Marin, county north of sf.
Cool most of the time. High 80s is a rare heat wave. High 20s even more a rarity.
Houses are expensive.
Views of bay fabulous.
Schools great. Public too.
A few very high end private.

That's just brutal....

The all time record for Dallas is 113 and for Waco it is 112 so I think you saying 110 every day is very embellished. Maybe 105 sporadically, but 110 is once a decade type heat wave. Now 1105 to 110 is happens more frequently out towards Vernon. Thankfully when it gets this hot the heat index is lower than the air temp because the humidity is about 25%.
I find the Norwegian heat wave even more impressive though along the Arctic coast of northern Norway they had a low of 77 and high of 90 a couple days ago with highs near 90.for days now.
