I think I've seen hotter in Toronto.

One night it was still 34 C at 10:45pm; sunset was about 9pm.
Overnight low of 30 C occuring around 5am.

This was with dewpoints around 28-30 C as well,
so easily 80-90% humidity at 11pm and 33 C.

Yesterday's top highs in Argentina.



Uploaded with ImageShack.us


Buenos Aires reaches 38ºC and a heat index of 45 , and the minimum today was 27.5ºC, 0.7 degrees behind the record of 28.2ºC in 1971.
Afortunately, tomorrow we'll have a change with rains and fall of temperatures.
In other side, yesterday in Viedma!, a city in 41 of latitude near the coast, the temps reaches 42.7ºC!, really impresive.

WOW! Definitively the wider land mass provides a continental climate plenty of extreme events.

Really? I used to live in Upstate NY, and I said I though 90°F at 9 pm was a sign of a broken thermometer. The climates are very similar, so I didn't expect Toronto to be that different. Do you have any numbers of when these hot nights occurred?

Yeah, it's nasty. It's incredible how easy the temp rises these days here. I guess because of the very low humidity in the afternoon (for BA standards).

Well, as the saying goes "Al mal tiempo, buena cara", which literally translates as "When the weather is bad, put a good face", or something like this, I'm sorry for the bad translation, but you get the meaning. Only that this saying is usually used when it's cloudy and it rains and maybe when it's cold. Haha, for me that's nonsense, to call that bad weather. So, for me this kind of weather we're having here right now is BAD WEATHER.

BAD is an understatement!


So i was just walking in the microcentro (downtown) with all the people and the cement and OMG!!! 37 CELSIUS RIGHT NOW (1:OO PM) another incredibly hot day: walking through downtown is like entering an oven thats in the maximum temp and never be able to get out: yo go into the bus: insanely hot, go to buy a water, is hot, you walk is hot, you stay still is hot. Anyways: A NIGHTMARE.

And they say tonight is gonna rain to end this insane heatwave but the sky is BLUE and no one cloud in the sky. Only this sun that is UNBEARABLE. I wonder if its gonan rain for reals or are we gonna be living this nightmare one day more??

They just said in the news heat index is 40! And that today is expected to be HOTTER than yesterday!!!

Anyways.............im out of words, this heat is even worst than i anticipated all year fearing what january was gonna be.
