Probably the hottest day this summer

At Silverwood (theme park) Idaho for July 4th, we hit some smoking hot days.

Digital thermometer read 110.1 in the shade, and 126.6. in the sun.

Oh, and I thought I'd add my weather stations URL here if anyone is interested. I have the camera for it, but haven't hooked it up yet.

It has been pushing 95-100F for weeks around here. Yesterday it was very hot and high humidity in central Alabama. The temp where I am at was pushing 100F and the weather guy said it 75% + humidity. Heat index was off the chart at 110-115F Not pleasant weather down here in the deep deep south this summer for sure. No where for the sweat to go when the humidity is that high.

I try to be done by 11 AM and then maybe go out at 4-5 PM to finish up anything I have been working on. It rained a little a few days ago and nothing since. The ground is hard baked right now.

We are coming down from 108 degrees. Only 16% humidity but still that's hot!

Almost unheard of for the mid Willamette Valley.

I don't know how accurate this is, but I snapped this screenshot today. This is an area about 100 miles from me, near my deer camp, which is about 30 miles northeast of Baton Rouge.

Also got this one in my truck about 5 miles east of Lake Charles, LA. on Interstate 10 at about 3:00pm today.
