Daverwr Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 The high in Palm Springs yesterday was a record-breaker for the date: 121. (The highest ever recorded here was 123.) Today is supposed to be "slightly" cooler. We are going to get in the car and drive up into the mountains for the day, because it should be only in the low 90s there. Pick me up before you leave! + Charlie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ Charlie Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Pick me up before you leave! Sorry I missed your request. It was heavenly at 6000 ft: 82 degrees, sunny and clean mountain air, a cool breeze....sigh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ Lucky Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 I followed the temps at weather.com all day yesterday. They never reported a temp for Palm Springs higher than 118. My area went to 119. Are they so hot to set a record that they cheat? 121! Hardly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ Charlie Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 According to The Desert Sun, the National Weather Service reported that it hit 121 in Palm Springs just before 4pm yesterday. It wasn't the hottest temperature in CA, however, because it was 127 in Death Valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RealAvalon Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Its 26 today and its creeping up to 28 by end of the week. I hope it doesn't get any hotter than that. Lovely and bright with next to zero humidity. I remain a seven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islesguy Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Iselguy over the last ten to fifteen years southern Arizona and the San Diego area of California have become subject to summer monsoons. The warm moist air has been flowing north along the west coast of Mexico and up through the Gulf of California. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epigonos Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) Thank god it has cooled off here in North Orange County, CA. It has been in the 90's the last few days. Today it was in the low 80's with a nice breeze. Unfortunately it is supposed to be back in the mid to high 90's this weekend. I am currently leaving the house to walk at 6 a.m. at which time it is still overcast thus I avoid both the sun and the heat.

Epigonos Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 RealAvalon if I'm correct 28c translates to 82.4f. Here is Southern California during the summer heat 82.4 would be considered a delightfully cool summer day. Last week it was 35c and it's is most definitely going to get hotter than that as we move into August and September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socurious Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I personally think I need a couple of steroid cycles to top it up. But you can say I'm handsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islesguy Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Upper 70s and low humidity and see point temps for two days in the NY metro area. Unfortunately, there's a heat wave come with temps close to 90 and stifling humidity this weekend.

You take them both, and there you have THE FACTS OF LIFE. THE FACTS OF LIFE. I am always hot and don't pay for electricity, so my A/Cs usually go on sometime in May and are turned off some time in late September. They used to stay on 24/7 until I got a couple of units with remote controls. (I have difficulty walking and a 19' living room and a bedroom with a lot of furniture to navigate to get to the a/c so it used to be too much of a pain - literally - to go turn them on/off.)

Epigonos Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Thus far the summer here is Southern California has been glorious. Overcast in the mornings until about 9 a.m. temperature between 65 and 70 - great for walking. Afternoons have been sunny and in the low to mid 80's. with very low humidity. Frankly it doesn't get any better than this. However, we still have to face August and September which are usually our warmest months. Fortunately I will be in England from September 2nd to September 15 and will hopefully miss some of our really hot weather. We have a lot of problems here in Southern California but weather certainly is NOT one of them. mike carey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCClient Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 The weather has been nice along the coast this long weekend. Windows open. At 9AM we are at 68F at my house. High of 71F predicted.

Luv2play Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Here in Ontario, Canada, the summer has started off very nicely after a cool wet spring. Today it is 25C or around 78 sunny and a cooling breeze. Couldn't ask for nicer weather. One brother and his family are in Italy now and suffering a heat wave. Another brother is headed there at the end of the month despite my advice against going there in August. I did so once and wouldn't repeat. And we have no Italian blood in us but love the country for its many wonderful attributes. Its hard to beat the weather in Eastern Canada in the summer. Very few heat waves and hope that doesn't change any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
