It was delightful here yesterday. High of 75.
Perfect day for outside activities.

Expert308We're in what I hope will be our last run of 90+ days. I saw a couple groups (flocks? gaggles?) of geese headed south over the weekend, that should be a good sign.

GT-40DOCWe are still enjoying 100+ days and 80s at night. Sept. is just another Aug. to us. Mid to late Oct. will bring a much wanted cool off.

I wish members would have their Location field with a geographic name. Can’t see why many don’t.
Without it there’s no point in posting in this thread. Except to get thir post count up.

Had a beautiful weekend, too. Makes me miss having a motorcycle, was about perfection weather for it.

71 TRUCKThe last few weeks the rain has been going around us in central Florida, at least our neighborhood. With that said it had been in the mid to upper 90s.
We finally started getting the afternoon thunder storms again so the afternoons have been a little cooler.
As of right now,
76 degrees.
99% humidity.
winds out of the east at 4mph.
So far for today .21 inches of rain.
38 lighting strikes within 20 miles of me.

SigSauerP226It’s been about 105-110 last few days I think. Guess depends on what thermometer I trust. I’ll just say over 100 and it definitely feels like.

Yeah, after the last 2 weeks of rain nearly everyday, with the heat & mugginess, summer is over, although fall doesn't officially start in nearly 2 weeks. And, speaking of "hot", this year was just another typical Houston summer, not so outrageous like last year. My electric bill is 228 dollars less each month this summer. Last summer was just crazy.

SigSACAccording to the news tonight, we've had 44 days at or above 100 degrees this year - tied the record.
We are supposed to cool down a bit tomorrow - around 85 degrees. Highest forecast for the next 10 days is 90.

gearhoundsWe are enjoying unseasonably cool weather for early September in the eastern panhandle of WV. Summer sure seems to be over early here. September is usually fairly warm and humid here.

winds out of the south west at 3mph.
So far this week we have had 2.37 inches of rain.
Looks like it may be another hot summer here in Central Florida.

ArtieS92, humid and feels like 98. It's May for God's sake. I really don't need 5 months of this heat. Today is truly awful.
