It's rarely ever gotten to 100 F here, although there has been at least one 100 F day in the past 2 years, which is unusual. I don't think we'll get one this year, 95 F is my prediction for maximum temperature this year.

It certainly has reached 100°F, some time during the jurassic period.

I would expect Estonia has never recorded a 33C dewpoint

That Jurassic-type weather occurred more recently than you might think .

Where I live it can reach over 100f
Not every year though.
Last July was a hot one, average high almost 31c / 87f
well above our normal July avg high 28c / 82f
July 21st 2011 was the hottest day, the high was 39c / 102f
low that day was a balmy 26c / 79f
Nearby Toronto had a record warm low of 27c
I remember watering my plants at 6:30 am and it
already felt hot with the high humidity
Humidex peaked at 50c
I deliberately went out in my backyard that afternoon
just to experience that kind of heat ,
it felt like being in an oven
In Canada the absolute highest record temps are
in the west, 115f in Saskatchewan, 112f in Alberta
BC interior has hit 110f in Lytton.
Usually a drier heat though, not so bad

Other thing I'd like to point out, many places in tropics
have never reached 100f.
Both Canada and Russia have places that
have had temps far higher than most tropical places have experienced,
as strange as that might sound

Yeah, it was probably in the 70-80% range. Still very humid and intolerable.

Not one day hit 100F during the summer, throughout Newcastle and the Lower Hunter Valley - this would be almost unheard of here.
Highest temps have been 37.3C at Newcastle Airport and 37.4C at Cessnock, both in early January 2012.
The number of days over 30C and 35C last summer was exceptionally low, right across NSW.
The chances of breaking the 100F barrier in November or December this year though are very high, as you generally see some very hot, though short-lived bursts.

So far, El Paso has now had at least 8 days of 100 degree or above days this year and offically it's not even Summer yet. There's more on the way.

Yes, it has managed to get above 100 degrees Kelvin a few times this month. Just.
