Unbelievable how time flies... sadly, the summer has just began here hour ago, although here it feels like it began last week already. It was a bit colder today due to the yesterday's thunderstorm at night, but it is supposed to get warmer again and stay so until the end of the week, daily max around 30°C (86°F).
If you are wondering why I called this thread "summer/winter" don't forget this is an international forum and there are also people from the other hemisphere ;-) (lucky you, enjoy the winter :D)
-
After a longer dry period we finally got some rain today, and for a short while quite intense with even hail :-) Love this :D
-
June has been also pretty dry here in Northern Germany, with currently 30.3 mm of rain at my station (or just over 1 inch for imperial users). Temperatures are quite average for the time of year though, right now it is 17°C (63°F) outside with a partly cloudy sky and the strong gusty northwestern wind has eased a bit today. Yesterday was quite windy with average winds around 30 mph and gusts up to 45 mph.
The "real summer" begins here about the beginning of July and lasts until Mid/Late August and this means then temperatures usually in the 20s (C) (70-80°F), with some days of over 30°C (high 80s to low or mid 90s F) thrown in and sometimes also some colder spells (mostly combined with wind and rain) with temperatures in the high teens (60s °F). It is rarely colder than that and even at night time the lows barely drop below 10°C/50°F here at the coast.
-
Pretty warm here (SE UK) at present, 29ºC yesterday, 30ºC+ expected today and same again tomorrow
Im tying to find average daytime temps but cant seem to find it, but i think we are above ave so far
this month. Other than 0.2mm on the 9th (June) nothing since, my soil sensor is gagging at 178 :shock:
and no rain for the foreseeable, although, the UKMO says a wee thunder storm could popup today, but i
they are just safe guarding...

Was talking with son in Arizona he said it was hot. Looks like his home on high desert near Utah border at Page /Lake Powell, Page elevation 4300' (1310 meters) has record high forecast. The old record is 109° x-3 times occurred since 1958. 110°F (43.3C) is forecast.
If it meets or breaks I'll post back this would be an all time since records begin if it happens.
-
We had our highest temperature of the year yesterday with a max of 31.3°C (88°F), combined with a rather high humidity of 45% and a cloudless sky.
Also not much wind was present, so it felt quite uncomfortable even here at the coast.
Right now @10:30 its 19°C (66°F) with a partly cloudy sky and today it will not rise much above that, since a cold front will pass over Northern Germany this afternoon-
bringing a cool change with just a wind shift and no rain.

Only reached 103° yesterday. Forecast is 109° (42.7C) I have my doubts but maybe. I've seen this before living in Arizona 42 years when it would get super hot around area but never materialized to the extreme others got.
-
Reached 32°C (89F) today, sort of the level where I stop functioning :D
-
I hit 32.2ºC on the 19th, my all time back in 2013 is 32.6, it was so close lol 8-)
Temps dropping from tomorrow i believe
on a side note; my soil moisture is currently at 189 :shock:

Well reached 108° on the Page KPGA ASOS. Most likely broke daily high and almost tied all time.
-
My flat right now... windows opened, fan on... and tomorrow forecasted 3 degrees higher temperatures
http://www.meteotemplate.com/template/indexBlockDemoNarrow.php?block=indoor
So tomorrow Im expeccting the temp in my flat to reach 35 C (95F), it is right below the roof and of course no A/C (and not one in my office either, so it is not much better :D)
-
Well I have AC central in fact, as most around here do with at least window units for summer so it's 77° (25°C) inside. And with ceiling fan it feels just right. :grin:
-
The major problem is that not only it gets this hot, but I live right in the city center and there are higher buildings all around me so even at night when it drops to about 20-22 C (70F), there is absolutely no wind flow so it doesnt get much colder even with all windows opened. And tomorrow it will start of hotter than today already and during the day we are expecting a record high for 22 Jun of about 35-36°C.
I remember in July/August 2015 we had a major 2-week lasting heat wave, where every day the daily max was above 35 (95F), very unusual, but during that time, the temperature in my flat never dropped below 30°C (86F), sleeping in this is a nightmare and then I went to my office where we had about 3-4 degrees less, only because it is not right under the roof
-
Heres a wee tip that i have been using for the last week, close all windows during the day, after all, why would you want
30ºC air in the property, also close curtains where the sun hits, thicker curtains the better, once the sun goes down
and its cooler outside than in, then open ya windows, of course, if ya dropped a wee loggy at the pool then that would
necessitate the opening of ones bathroom window and to hell with the devils heat lol ;)
I am in a bungalow South facing, so only one floor, no where for the heat to rise to so i know what ya going through Jachym.
Applying my method only works if you can get it sufficiently cooler in there at night. Had a few days over the past week thats
topped 30ºC and during the day with the curtains and the windows closed, its topped out at 24ºC inside, now thats bearable :)
I only found out by accident about the closing of the windows, curtains i have known for years but, lined or blackout curtains are
better, I have 3 big hairy Bearded Collies so keeping it as cool as is important for them more than it is me, oh and you need to
close the windows as soon as the temp starts to rise inside again.
PS. ymmv :)
I think Heathrow hit 34.4ºC yesterday, warmest (hottest) June day since '76
-
25.0°C (77°F) with 68% humidity here and partly sunny.
We had an impressing thunderstorm complex with shelfcloud around midmorning (11 am) which brought some negligible rain (1.2 mm), but in other parts of Northern Germany it was far more worse, even a tornado has been reported by weather observers in the area around Hamburg according to the local media, though fortunality it looks like there wasn't any damage, since it had ground contact only for a short time.
-
Warmest day of the year so far and most likely a record high for Jun 22, currently close to 35°C (95), it is still just 3PM so it might get even a bit higher by around 5PM, at some places in CZ it is close to 37C (99F).
-
Here we had a big storm and the temperature lost 9 °C in 40 minutes. We had 32.9 and now 23 ° C and 88% humidity
-
Thats what is supposed to arrive here tomorrow, right now close to 37C :shock: I hate this, I seriously do and given it is also the longest day of the year and I like winter and night, this is probably the absolute worst possible combination for me :D
-
Today and day before yesterday the records of 2005 were beaten. Day before yesterday 33,9 °C and today 32,9.
-
I briefly hit 117F (47C) yesterday and the day before. Hottest since I've owned my PWS.
-
What a nice end of the day! 37C at 5:30PM, then at 20:30 a squall line arrived, the temp dropped from 28 to 19 in a matter of a few minutes with significant wind gust and about 8mm rain (1/3in) in 10 minutes with lots of lightning. Now another large thunderstorm is going towards my city, Im expecting it to arrive in about 3-4h, most likely at the time when I will go to bed :D
http://www.meteotemplate.com/template/pages/station/graph.php
-
As expected... around 4AM the second squall line passed my city. Look at what the pressure did...
change of 4hPa (0.11 inHg) in 10 minutes...
-
High plains weather June 24th. 38.8F (3.7C)
-
It has been very mild so far this summer in northern Alabama. It hasn't really gotten "hot" yet... only a handful of 90 degree days so far this year, 11 to be exact. I'm loving this! \:D/ Back in my hometown in Upstate South Carolina, there's only been two 90 degree days so far this year.
Pattern looks to be changing in the next couple of week once this cooler/drier weather moves out of the central and eastern US. We will probably get our typical summer heat by mid-July.
-
This must've been what my mother meant about growing up in Valentine Ne. without AC she said summers were miserably hot & winter's bitter cold. Why would you want to live their for christ sakes? :lol:
-
We just finished up with a thunderstorm a couple of hours ago. The temperature dropped from 87F to 69F in a few minutes with several gusts to 45MPH. Oh, and we got 2.93" of rain. Welcome to York, PA USA.
-
Airport average high 99° through 17 July. only .10 for month. What a difference from previous 3 summers where 10"+ and highs in mid 80's. You can watch storms dissolve as they approach. I'm talking big thunderheads 35-40,000' with hail and heavy rain. It's like a dome is around area.
-
It's very toasty today.
-
Tweet by NWS new record 112F 44.4C.
-
:shock: That's even hot here...
-
I'm not saying it's hot outside, but two hobbits just threw a ring into my backyard.
-
After a very nice weekend with partly cloudy and temps around 21-22C (70F) it is gradually getting hotter every day, today it was already 34C (93F) and tomorrow the hot weather is supposed to culminate at up to 37C (98F), making it probably the hottest day so far this year, later in the evening as the cold front arrives it should cool down and we expect violent thunderstorms/hailstorms. I cant wait for that since it is already 33C (92F) right now in my flat, despite having all windows opened. It is completely calm, so the air is not moving at all and tomorrow I will be at work from 9 AM to 11:30 PM, so coming back home in the evening will probably not be the most pleasant :D I live in a flat just below the roof and the windows are at an angle so I must always close them completely before leaving the house, when it rains and they are opened it rains inside. In my office we also don't have A/C, but the area is larger so it is not so unbearably hot there.
In my country, probably the hottest it will ever get is around 39-40 (102-103), but this will happen like once a year at most. Tomorrow is probably the usual annual max. I only hope it will be -20C (-5F) again this winter, I love that :D
These days I just feel extremely tired and drink about 5 liters of water daily
-
It's very toasty today.
What was the humidity during those 105+ temperatures?
-
:shock: That's even hot here...
I know. I lived at Lake powell/Page for 42 years and it never got this hot.
What was the humidity during those 105+ temperatures?
Today the airports official record 112F, humidity was 14% DP 52. My station topped at 110.6F feels like was 108F.
-
The humidity is up here so the 90s are miserable. The temperature is 91.7 (cooling off), Humidity is 59% and the dew is 75. that is 104 heat index and the ISS is in the shade. It is supposed to get worse tomorrow. Rain is 0.55 on my Davis for the month, we have been in a drought. All I water is my veggies, the grass is a gonner.
-
This was today's chart the pink is heat index and stayed below temperature.
-
I see, well here it is quite the opposite, in the summer, the feels like is always several degrees above the temperature, we have much higher humidity
-
I don't think they count Death Valley only established cities.
-
1:20PM and temperature is already 35.6C (96F), humidity 44% (making the feels like 39.3C / 103F). The forecasted thunderstorms are so far nowhere to be seen on the radar...
-
Some days like today the heat index goes above temperature. Tomorrow we have a high heat advisory again. ](*,)
I just want some rain....
-
I'll take 110ºF with a 45ºF dewpoint any day over this... It's supposed to be hotter tomorrow.

Oh and my backyard/ISS is shaded by a large maple tree in the afternoon...

Shade? Don't need no stinkin' shade... :-P

Same here but the airport was 112 at 52 dp. Heat index 110°.
My station was was a mild 108° heat index
-
I guess I could say I"m "lucky" to not be having such absurb highs as you guys. Today was my hottest day with 92.5 but heat index stayed about 10 degrees higher than temperature. My ISS gets full sun, sun up to sun down. Perhaps if it hadn't rained so much this month (4.35" so far) It'd be getting even hotter.

Sounds like every bit of the sun's rays are going to warming you up as opposed to evaporating any moisture from the ground. Hope you get some rain soon too!
-

Shade? Don't need no stinkin' shade... :-P
Neither do I, especially not with an AC fan now \:D/
It's very comforting to see my ISS getting blown away by the sun at peak heating with an obviously very accurate temperature (compared with stations around me going "berzerk")
-
My ISS gets full sun, sun up to sun down.
That's the way it should be. Mounting shield under a tree is like a cloud being over all day and not something we should strive for.
The only way I can get full sun all day is roof mount. My property surrounded by trees so I'm artificially cool early morning until about 9 am and then last couple hours in evening.

Sad thing is that's alot of people's only options, yet there is so much heat that gets absorbed and radiated by the roof that it's almost worthless trying to get anything near accurate with that sort of setup, especially if you buy an expensive station. I'm lucky that GA power tore down 2 huge trees in my front yard last summer so that there is only one big tree that doesn't shelter my ISS at all (tho it does come close in the morning).
-
From 110° a few days ago. #-o Converts to 4.6C. This is my second station on east side of town.
-
Europe is currently going through a deadly heat wave.
Some places in Sardinia (Italy) have recorded temperatures above 50°C (122F). Here we had over 38.5°C (101.5F), only less than 2 deg below the absolute national max. Similar extremes can now be experienced also in many other countries including France, Albany, Slovenia, Austria, Hungary, Croatia, Romania etc.
-
First chance for freeze tonight coming September 6th: Probably won't make it but mid 30's is getting close.
NWS forecast Valentine area: Patchy frost after 3am. low around 36°. North wind 9 to 14 mph becoming light north northwest in the evening.
