90s in the mountains of NC, in October. :gthumb:

Same in TN yesterday and today and forecast until Friday when the high is forecast to be 77. This could be fake news, though.

Y'all understand why these single points of data are completely meaningless, right?

Did I assign any particular meaning to what I posted? I only said it was hot for this time of year. I spent most of my life in the area I now live in and have never known it to be this hot in the month of October. Stop crying

Yes, yes you did.

Man, you are metamucil. Your comprehension and interpretive abilities are in serious conflict with your preconceived notions. If the high temperature here tomorrow was 35 degrees, I might make a comment like "damn, it's pretty cold here for early October" and the only meaning in that statement would be my inferred surprise at the low temperature. How in hell do you get some ulterior or additional meaning from such a statement other than what the statement actually said? Oh, let me guess; it's because you're so used to fake news and conspiracy theories and the sort of "truth is not truth" bullshit that you've been weaned on these past couple of years. Damn

... "The heat's usually broken by now in the season … it’s just not supposed to be this hot right now," DuBose said.

Record heat

Last month was the second-hottest September on record with an average temperature of 79.1 degrees, according the National Weather Service. The average September temperature is 72 degrees.

The first day of October is expected to peak at a heat index of 91 degrees, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Doug Outlaw.

Wednesday and Thursday highs are expected to reach 96 and 97 degrees, respectively, according to the NWS. Both days will reach record highs if the temperatures reach or exceed those levels, Outlaw said.

"Being that it's October 1st today ... it's very unusual," Outlaw said.

Outlaw said the heat index – the actual temperature plus humidity – could reach 99 degrees on Thursday afternoon....

Drought conditions

September was hotter than August, and barely cooler than July, Andrew Kimball, meteorologist at NWS Greenville-Spartanburg....

High today 94 tying the 1941 record. Burn bans in effect in the whole area. I've not been able to wear my suit of armor in weeks. Used to mow the lawn wearing it back when I was more robust but back then it was just in the mid 80's.....another ten degrees wearing a suit of armor is a significant consideration. A knight could drown in his own sweat.

As a point of reality, a humorous suggestion by a staffer about methane has resulted in the "great and unhinged" wisdom of the right wing nut gallery to seize on it as something momentous and harmful and dastardly in some way, yet they are like crickets over the disastrous US invasion of Iraq, which has and will continue to cause upheaval in the region for decades. Same with the latest "great and unhinged" tax cut for the corporate masters and super wealthy. Not to mention how they fawn and swoon over virtually any idiotic word or action from the leader of their cult; a pathological liar, career con man, extreme narcissist, and bankruptcy artist. It is quite indicative of how the right's "great and unhinged" wisdom places more emphasis on a comical anomaly than on actual events they've initiated that have caused tremendous death, destruction, and inequality. But that's just the nature of "great and unhinged" wisdom. Whining!

How Hot Was July? Hotter Than Ever, Global Data Shows

With temperatures soaring in Europe and Alaska, ice melting in Greenland and forests burning across Siberia, last month seemed like a blistering one worldwide.

It was.

European climate researchers said Monday that last month was the hottest July — and thus the hottest month — ever recorded, slightly eclipsing the previous record-holder, July 2016.

... The past five years have been the hottest on record, including the record single year in 2016. The 10 hottest years have all occurred in the past two decades.

This June was the warmest on record, and the previous five months were among the four warmest for their respective months, the climate researchers said. That puts this year on track to be in the top five, or perhaps the hottest ever....
