West Coast Heat Wave

[El Guapo]

Supposed to hit 41* C (106F) for the next couple of days here. To put it in perspective, summers are generally cool here near the coast and never get much over 75 degrees. This ought to be fun. :cool20:

Coquitlam, British Columbia 7 Day Weather Forecast - The Weather Network (https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/weather/british-columbia/coquitlam)That's terrible for the PNW where most people don't have air conditioned homes. One of our sons there does have an ac in his house, the other has portable ones ... but when we lived there we had several wood stoves as well as central heat........but no AC......

Here in Oklahoma, the weather is cooler than usual.

Everything is backwards.

I don't like too much warmth

The best for me is very -4f to 60f

I would have thought that when they stopped the keystone pipeline all the weather problems would have been solved. They weren't so I'm calling this heatwave "The biden Heatwave".

Our projection is for 98 degrees here. Add the 4 degrees that the weather projection is ALWAYS OFF & that's 102. That's about normal here.

We are also projected to get rain 7 out of the next 9 days. The last time they projected 7 days of rain out of 9 days (3 weeks ago) we got 1 day where it rained for almost 40 minutes, which wasn't a hard rain. When I die I want to come back as a weatherman. Never right but being paid big bucks for being wrong. What a JOB!!!

Not bad at all. It is cool on the coast, warm in Portland, the Willamette, Klamath, and Rogue Valleys, and hot in the eastern desert.

I use an air conditioner in the bedroom in the summertime, and that's usually enough. Now I've got a couple of portables going as well to keep the place tolerable.
They're calling this a 'heat dome'. They occur in the desert climes of the the southwest apparently:

It'll just be a couple of days it looks like. Think I'll take Monday off work. Yeah. lol.

I hate really hot weather. I hate really cold weather too. That's one of the reasons why I tolerate life in Vancouver.

Now this. What a gyp. :angry20:

My Dad always tells me the temperature in farenheit even though we are Australian and it always annoys the hell out of me. He will tell me it will be 100 tomorrow and I will always say - "I dont know what that means". Ha. Where I live we often get a month or so of 40 C plus days. And its a really dry burning heat. And it stays above 30 all night. 45/46 C days not unusual. Winter now though - pretty mild. Never gets much below zero where I am and only in early morning. Never snows.

It's 72F and raining here. Bakersfield 97F so far.

how will they blame this on white supremacy?

Now this. What a gyp. :angry20:The PNW has very tolerable weather... usually. We lived there for 10 years and I loved the weather. Believe it or not, Anchorage weather is pretty bearable. I felt warmer in Anchorage than I did in Seattle most of the time (and I didn't upgrade my coats).

Wow.

Thats almost normal for the northern Sacramento Valley. We used to race modifieds at Shasta Speedway and that place was always a burner.

[Physics Hunter]

Heck, that's a chipshot. All those deplorable white flyover climate deniers that runs their tractors, trucks... on petro fuels.

[El Guapo]

Well... 102 f right now, expected to top off @ 104 f today. Forecast calls for 44C tomorrow- 112 f.

Now if 112 degrees doesn't say white supremacy - I don't know what does.

[Brat]

That sucks. It is unseasonably cool this week, 72F right now, no temps over 80F forecast. Weird. Should be around 102 or so.

I got wise and started the AC first thing this morning so instead of playing catch up with the heat, the house is pretty comfortable right now compared to yesterday.

[Gator Monroe]

112 today in West Redding ( so far )

[El Guapo]

Popsicle supplies are running low. I'll have to wait till sundown and hit Safeway for tomorrow's provisions. :grin20:

It's 91 here in Missoula County...which is on the high side of "normal."

Tomorrow, 99; and predicted, 105 for the next three days. That is not normal.

But...as meteorologists used to say, back when it was a science, and not a political-propaganda mechanism..."Abnormal weather is NORMAL." Records only go back to about 1875 or so. That's not a long time. Here we're at the bottom of prehistoric Lake Missoula - which dried, drained and rose up to where it's just a valley through which the Clark Fork (originally named, Clark Fork of the Columbia River) runs through.

It has been this hot and hotter before, of course - just not recorded by puny, sniveling, emotive Man.
