Title: Bad time to live in Phoenix Arizona Post by: Tynstar on July 19, 2005, 03:05:12 PM http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050719/ap_on_re_us/heat_deaths
It has sucked real bad here over the last few weeks. :-/ Title: Re: Bad time to live in Phoenix Arizona Post by: Izret101 on July 19, 2005, 03:57:32 PM Ya i saw a thing on the news about Phoenix getting a break of like 3-6 degrees from the heat.
Hopefully it isn't disgustingly humid there too. But if it gets to dry moer forest fires will happen. Note to self NEVER move to a place that gets that hot. Title: Re: Bad time to live in Phoenix Arizona Post by: TraderJake on July 19, 2005, 04:32:08 PM That's just a little hot. Luckily in Cincinnati all we have is atrocious humidity that is coupled with temperatures in the upper 80s. For example, right now it is 84 degrees with a 69 degree dewpoint at 8:30pm. It's not summer in Ohio (or Kentucky or Indiana) is there isn't a dewpoint of at least 65 to go with your temperatures. Humidity sucks so much, with high temperatures it is like a one-two punch.
But that is real unfortunate about those Temperatures. Here we have people keeling over from not having fans in this type of weather, and when they stay in their house they suffer from being in an oven. I know in 2002, one of the hottest summers on record in Cincinnati, we recorded the stockroom temperature in the store I ran at 120 degrees. It was just a little hot. Title: Re: Bad time to live in Phoenix Arizona Post by: Tynstar on July 19, 2005, 04:38:38 PM The humidity is like 20-30% which is high. But it does help keep the temp down. The weekend it should only get into the 105 range.

Humidity here was supposed to be 100% today According to weather.com right now it is... Temp 75 degrees Humidity: 76% Dew Point: 67°F We have had wicked high humidity since about last friday. I don't mind heat as much as i do humidity. Title: Re: Bad time to live in Phoenix Arizona Post by: CatchFiveBats on July 19, 2005, 08:17:26 PM I don't like heat or humidity. If I had a choice, I would take Fall weather all the time...75 with a nice breeze. |D But I live in Indiana, so the temperature is all over the place. :-/
Title: Re: Bad time to live in Phoenix Arizona Post by: den68 on July 20, 2005, 04:42:24 AM It's been pretty toasty in MI lately but nothing even approaching that. I can't imagine living in that kind of heat.
Title: Re: Bad time to live in Phoenix Arizona Post by: Tynstar on July 20, 2005, 07:26:19 AM It has been reported that it is 13 deaths now. Mostly homeless people.
Title: Re: Bad time to live in Phoenix Arizona Post by: captain_nintendo on July 20, 2005, 07:41:01 AM It was like 123 in Lake Havasu the other day.
Humidity is way up during the monsoo season around here and yet we still get 115 degree heat. :( |
