Our overnight low has not even reached 90 degrees in the last three days. It's hawt.

Yeah, but it's a dry heat

Around these here parts, we refer to it as a dry hate.

But that's only because of all the Trumpers.

Also, too, it keeps smelling like rain and my humidity meter has reached 31%, which it claims is no longer dry by 1%.

No rain though, just occasional clouds and lightning.

And brain melting heat.

[raison de arizona]

The rain reached through last night and the low temperature dropped into the 80s! Woot.

Bad news in South Dakota.

Fan inspired. Sure glad we’re spending a couple million to have our national guard in Texas while this is happening.

I don't know where to put this, but here's a quote from a local citizen in regard to the flood in my town:

It's nice to be reminded when our constitutional rights are being infringed. What would be nicer is regular updates on inaccessable roads, electricity and sewer status.

Damn that river! It had no constitutional right to flood either.

Is your National Guard in TX defending the border?

Is your National Guard in TX defending the border?

It has been in the past. I don't know about right now. Our fine nutjob governor has sent the State Police to do same. Whose tax dollars paid for this; I keep asking myself.

Maybe not an alert, but here's a 100 ton train engine vs a tornado:

[pipistrelle]

Wonder what happened after that.

Wonder what happened after that.

I dunno, but I hope it didn't involve the Wonderful World of Oz!

[raison de arizona]

Shit's broke ya'll.

This is unreal. Hurricane Beryl continues to defy all know logic, now becoming the first June Category 4 hurricane ever recorded in the Atlantic Basin. I can't even stress enough just how completely absurd that storm is.

Catastrophic flooding in Swiss Alps overnight.

Reports of several villages cut off, severe damage to critical infrastructure and people missing.

Crazy video from a viewer at Unser and McMahon Blvd NW in NW ABQ around 6:48pm. @KOB4 #NMwx

They needed some rain with the fires and all.

This would be big news IN SEPTEMBER. In June, it's just unthinkable.

BREAKING: Hurricane Beryl reaches Category 5 strength with 160 mph winds in the Caribbean Sea

[AndyinPA]

From what I've read, also the earliest Category 5 ever.

[RTH10260]

Folks, please move on, there is nothing to be seen, the message of climate change was premature.

Is this the time of the year where you go green, and cook your fried eggs out in the sun?

No, I use my evil gas stove the way doG intended even though Joe Biden wants to take it away & make me use a George Foreman grill.
