Relatives driving through OK City report 102+

My neighborhood is quiet and like a ghost town right now.Walking to the mailbox in the sun and heat I felt like a food item on the buffet line with the sun as a food warming red lamp.

It's hot in other places. I was gratified to see that yesterday in my hometown in Central Illinois, it was 93 degrees with a "feels like" temperature of 109, with 88 percent humidity.

I trust your data more than the iPhone, you may require a personal security detail it these conditions continue for the next couple months.

Anybody know how many 100 degree days we have had in June so far? And what the record for # of 100 degree days in June might be? I looked around and can't find a good site with that kind of info.

Looks like 11 100+ so far

Weather Station History : Weather Underground

scroll to the bottom for the chart of temps, etc. Most forecasts will do a 5 or 10-day outlook should give you an idea for the rest of the month...edit: wait, I just re-read...you are looking for the *record* # for 100+ days? I dunno where to find that! Dig around wunderground, might find it there.

Haha I was just teasing. We have some posters who have a fear for these temps.. and I'm afraid I may get death threats soon if it doesn't rain!

The San Antonio Int'l Airport has had 7 100+ days and 13 99+ days.
Stinson Field on the southside has had 11 100+ days and 12 99+ days.

I don't know what the record is for most 100 degree days in June. I'll see if I can find out w/o doing the number crunching myself since records go back to 1874 IIRC.
