From Fahrenheit to Celsius - Share your weather reports

Yay you beat me by 5° :hot_face:

Two years ago thete was like 46 or something. Realy dangerous to go outside.

Well, I guess I shouldn’t complain about the circumstance that temperatures won’t drop below 20°C this night… and the pretty humid air we had all day.

Around 3:00 p.m., it was 39° here, too. Right now, it’s raining a bit

At my previos place in past life 32 was considered as hell.

Now need to “adapt” to new climate. :sweat_smile:
I have no idea how this can be survived without AC unit.

And yes. Better not even try to use buses. Metal getting really hot on sun.

Still 40.1 here :melting_face:

I agree about disliking high humidity, esp. when it gets warm. But I’m surprised people are measuring the dampness by the relatively worthless ‘relative humidity’ measurement. Far and away the best way to measure how humid the air is: dew point. Here is a decent explanation: What “Humidity” Actually Means—and Why Dew Point Tells You More

I came here to complain about it having been 34c today…

I’ll see myself out.

Thanks, I haven’t been aware of the context / the relation to the absolute humidity in terms of the dew point.
But as my brain isn’t wired in imperial units, I had to convert those values.

Dew‑point (°F) Dew‑point (°C) How it feels
Below 50 °F Below 10 °C Dry and comfortable; crisp air, sweat evaporates immediately.
50 °F – 59 °F 10 °C – 15 °C Comfortable to slightly humid; noticeable but not oppressive.
60 °F – 64 °F 16 °C – 18 °C Noticeably humid; outdoor exercise feels harder.
65 °F – 69 °F 18 °C – 21 °C Humid and somewhat oppressive; “sticky” feeling.
70 °F – 74 °F 21 °C – 23 °C Very humid and uncomfortable; sweat doesn’t evaporate well.
Above 75 °F Above 24 °C Oppressive; dangerous conditions for extended outdoor activity.

We had a dew point close to 20°C all morning. Due to rain at night. And as the last graph within that screenshot represents the relative humidity in % - It’s pretty typical that we’ve got relatively high humidity where I’m at.

Too bad that most forecasts don’t even include the dew point… might be worth to check in case I feel the urge to purchase an inexpensive weather station some day.

I don’t know the source this site uses, but have found it reliable for my home location:
Dew Point Forecast
(it uses different colours to give a quick look at the forecast, which is quite ugly for me for the foreseeable future)

Dropping my son off at football workouts around 3pm today. :hot_face:

Whell…

I can relate to this. . . my electric bill is going to all new ‘highs’ and the AC is working off it’s arse. . . . I certainly hope it can and I get through this horrible hot summer. . . cloudy days are big blessings when you can have them and when the wind blows it too is also a big benefit as long as it isn’t ‘hot’ air blowing. . . then it becomes a huge blast furnace outside.

Rich :wink:

Today it’s a pleasant 27°. Next week, it’ll be challenging again. And it’s not going to get any better.

Hovering in the 80’s for the next several days. Fairly cool right now, but the 91% humidity is pretty rough.

With all the fires and heat affecting Europe, I have sympathy for everyone living through this hellish nightmare. To those climate deniers out there I’d say ‘f’ off to your bullshit beliefs. Alternative energy i.e. solar and wind are necessary. Fuel efficient and electric cars are answers to this petroleum pollution nightmare. Fossil fuels have contributed to this nightmare in a big way. The upper atmosphere is being polluted by all the air traffic everyday also. We need more trees and green spaces with less asphalt, cement in our urban city centers. Ocean currents are changing our weather patterns also with the tide of rising heat in the oceans. It’s a multifaceted nightmare that effects everyone on this planet. We will all either sink or swim with this hellish nightmare.

Rich :wink: Pollution from just fires in Western US at this moment. . .

‘My mind is made up. Don’t confuse me with the facts.’

People who reject the science will find all sorts of reasons for denying what seems obvious to the rest of us.

It hasn’t rained where I am for several months now, high up on a hill so rainclouds have been dissipating before they even get here, or just straight out evading. Everything is just dust. Looking like it’ll hit 34c - 37c next week, again.. so I’m just going to quietly hope September brings some real rain. The last time it was this dry was in the 70’s.
