Just be happy we don't have humidity. I admit it's mighty warm but at least one's sweat evaporates.

I believe we hit 106, still over 90 at 6:30.

I was wrong - 108

A chilly 86 in Bermuda;)

But...we have 80% humidity at 12.00 noon with the sun shining. This makes it feel much closer to the kind of temperatures you guys are feeling right now.

Having said that, I feel very sorry for you guys living in cities up there . I lived through a heatwave in Toronto in 87 or 88 and the pollution mixed with the heat damn near killed me.

Keep cool boys.

I shouldn't complain. I've seen 124 here before.

EDIT: According to weather.com, the hottest day on record was 119. Can't trust those radio broadcasters.

95 in Oregon... its not that high... but it is a July 10th record for us.

Worst I've ever had was 120 with 100% humidity. I remember looking at the thermometer at 7am and it read 100. It wasn't Africa... but it was the same hemisphere.

113 in Ottawa a week ago. Ya know, it's not really a frozen tundra, eh?

So can someone please translate that into celsius?
And please, not some smart bellybutton formula like C = 37/F +7/8

Whoa, 40-45 degrees?? Geez, and I thought we had it warm here with 30 (apparently that is 86 to you Farenheit heathens)
