I'm so tired of it. I just want some kind of change at this point I don't care what it is. I'm sick of looking at that pool of anomalously warm water every time I view ocean temps. How come an El Nino never lasts two solid years? How can that pool just sit there this long? You would think something would have changed. It looks permanent.

The warm blob is most likely linked to the PDO flipping back to a warm phase (for the time being)
Wedge of warm seawater known as 'the blob' blamed for marine havoc

Who knows how long it will last. We need more storms like this typhoon to churn up the North Pacific and destroy that high pressure. Maybe El Nino will help that?

The average highs are about to start declining again here. Of course, it's hard to notice the decline until September.

Brive, SW France, reached an impressive 41°C/106°F today. I'm disappointed with Paris though, only 35.6°C (96°F) at Orly airport as a hourly max today. Let's wait for the definitive stats. The warmest it reading in the northern half of France was 38.9°C (102°F) in Châteauroux.

yeah the average doesn't fall below 90 till the second week of august. every day this week was forecast in the low 90s but now because of these clouds they where wrong the highs past 3 days where 88 under cloudy skies really hope these clouds go away even though it will mean some heat in the mid 90s possibly. the heat accuweathers was showing for mid July was pushed to first week of august. it would have happened if it wasn't for all these clouds.

That list was created by some brain-dead idiot. Not to be taken seriously.



In other news, of course we've had 0 thunderstorms today. Just some boring overcast (better than blistering sunshine) all day. How typical of this **** pattern.

I'm surprised this is coming from Accuweather, the author of that article sounds confused, the average temperature and average high temperature are two different things.

9. "With the highest average July temperature out of all 10 cities that made the cut, Dallas residents cope with highs near 86 degrees at the peak of summer." Really? Highs near 86?

3. "High humidity combined with average July highs of nearly 84 degrees put Houston in the top three." Mmkay.

2. "In Miami, average daytime highs in July hit close to the 84-degree mark and Florida's geographic location fuels high humidity levels." Lol not really.

And what's with the random order? And San Diego? Bye.

Lol an average of 84 here in July? That guy must've drank 2 liters of Hennessy before writing that stupid article. Why would accuweather even publish this non-sense is beyond me. Another reason not to take Accuweather seriously.

^ I think it's supposed to be AVERAGE as in the mean of the high and low.
