Enjoy.

Yeah, I saw the forecast last night, gonna be hotter than a Devil's drawers for most of the central and southern US.

Get that AC going and have generators standing by!

Time to see the results of our Stuttering Crook's efforts to start taking coal power offline.

Already 110's in Kansas. Hill City was 114 yesterday. This will be a doozy.

Electricity shortages a comin'

No one outside of a Columbia Poli Sci or Journalism classroom could have seen this happening...

You know what, let the dumbasses of this country start having rolling blackouts as another part of "the new normal". They've consistently voted for Democrats. They've consistently aped mindless platitudes about Green Energy, the destruction of hydroelectric dams because of some snail, and so on. Idiots. What a colossal bunch of slack jawed drooling morons we have for a citizenry in this country.

Our forebears are rolling in their graves. They broke their asses, and levied taxes, in order to see that everybody could have the boon of electricity to their homes and now .... this.

The grid has been allowed, nay, legislated, to degrade, power generation is being regulated out of existence, and schemes are in the works to permit the shut down of particular home systems and appliances via "smart meters".

If I wasn't alive right now to see with my own eyes, I'd never have believed "it could happen here". This is turd-world, banana republic, totalitarianism.

Going to break 110 again in Kansas. I wonder what the record is for consecutive days of doing that?

If we have a big heat wave I wonder if the Democrats are going to let them die like they did in France? Oh, that's right, they've already done it in Chicago.

ToddF · « **Reply #9 on:** June 27, 2012, 08:38:38 AM »

It's on

Twin Cities, next several days

99, 91, 95, 91, 99, 100

Chitcago

93, 104, 93, 95, 90, 97, 95, 93, 93, off the end of the page with heat

St. Louis

97, 108, 106, 100, 106, 104, 99, 97, 97, into infinity...

Here in Charlotte we will be pushing the current records as well.

Friday: 100° (Record 102° 1945)
Saturday: 102° (Record 102° 1959)
Sunday: 101° (Record 99° 1954)
Monday: 100° ( Record 101° 1931)

It's even nicer with your classic southeastern addition of humidity somewhere around 300%

Nashville is supposed to see 100+ the next few days. I tell ya, it's climate chaos.

Libertas · « **Reply #12 on:** July 01, 2012, 08:12:47 PM »

It was warm in Wi this weekend, not as hot as these places.

My mother watches Fox pretty much 24/7, she says the bad storms (inland hurricane) and DC being without power is God's judgement.

Who knows, she could be right.

Derecho, not something new. New to me too. WUWT's got some interesting
info.

And the quote of the day
"I live in Phoenix and see the daily weather highs & lows, so why was it 114 degs back in 1914? What was causing it to be so hot back then? Of course they have no answer except maybe too many horses were farting…"

Sectionhand · « **Reply #15 on:** July 02, 2012, 07:26:56 AM »

Gonna be 95 - 100 the rest of the week on Central Ohio .

ToddF · « **Reply #16 on:** July 02, 2012, 09:00:00 AM »

A little late (with the borderline of the heat wave slipping south, into northern Missouri, but it's now Minnesota's turn for real. 95-100 the whole week, pretty much. 80 at night.

Pandora · « **Reply #17 on:** July 02, 2012, 09:34:40 AM »

Thank God it's started cooling off a little here. I can actually stand being outside. Temps are supposed to continue dropping through the high 90s this week.

Libertas · « **Reply #18 on:** July 02, 2012, 11:38:32 AM »

How come when a storm his the east coast it has to have some funky name attached to it like its something special? We get straight-line winds and guess what? It's not called a Canadian Snort or anything...it's straight-line winds for crying out loud!

Didn't y'all just get over something like that?
