Except for Grand Marais up on Lake Superior in the 50's. The wind off the chilly lake frequently keeps that area much cooler.
85 in Albuquerque at this hour. Will have to hurry to get to the forecast high of 96 today. We are forecast to be in the mid 90's for highs all week which is typical for June in central New Mexico. June is often our hottest month as we get the monsoon early in July and the accompanying afternoon clouds help moderate the high temps. The monsoon usually exits in early September.

Lot of 90s up there. It's been pleasant in the great Piney Woods region of the Lone Star State with...<drumroll>...more rain.
Tomorrow is supposed to be 99 and humid. Just last week we had the 40's.
Nothing like easing into summer.
Next up the mosquitoes that carry small pets away.
Kinda like when I lived in Northern Virginia. The humidity levels would get up to nearly the temperature levels. At least here in the southwest when it hits a hundred + the humidity levels are usually below 35%.
I remember when I was in Phoenix that 90 degrees didn't feel all that bad in the dry air.
The humidity here makes it hard to breathe and you sweat with no effort, so your clothes get damp and stick to you providing no cooling effect.

Same in Kansas when we lived there. It could be 90f with near 100% humidity at midnight. Brutal.

It was that way when we lived in El Paso, it could hit 95 and still be comfortable with just a couple of fans. Of course the El Paso natives put on cold weather clothing if it got below 60 degrees.........

I am a fellow Kansan,,when you were there,did you ever take in a Royals game by chance?
 
Not looking forward to today's project of tearing apart drivers dash on my Jeep to replace broken blend door gear for climate control, again.
A cheap plastic gear that costs 20 bucks and several hours of labor since drivers side is blowing hot air when AC is on.
Dealer wants over a thousand bucks to replace. Thank god for You Tube repair videos.

I will be cussing about automobile engineering to myself during the entire repair. At least this time I am familiar with what to do, so should take less than the three hours it took last spring.
Good luck on the project, Mr. Petro.

No. Never made it to a Royals game but was a strong Royals fan. Lived in Pittsburg for several years and then Salina for several years. Trips to Kansas City, other than for business, were usually to performances at the Starlight Theater including a good meal at Putch's.

Often in the KC airport though as all flights out of Salina went to Kansas City and then to wherever you were actually going. Kansas City was 3 hours east of Salina on I-70 and Denver was 8 hours west. But we had to fly to Kansas City to get to Denver. :)

Yes. When she was younger my Aunt lived for years in Wichita. I remember going to a park there that had swings, a slide, and a running round ride. My older brother was eight and I was 2 years younger. All the way there and back to Houston, Dad and mom read every Burma Shave sign. lol. The fifties. :biggrin:

That Grand Marais temp certainly pops out. :lol:

85 in Albuquerque at this hour. Will have to hurry to get to the forecast high of 96 today. We are forecast to be in the mid 90's for highs all week which is typical for June in central New Mexico.

Sounds more comfortable there.
We made 100 today with the humidity it is just nasty outside.

It just registered on me where the map you posted is located. Would all that be record temps up there? Who would have thought it would get that hot ever? Summer has arrived with a vengeance in New Mexico--hot with temps in the mid 90's all week--very typical for us this time of year. But humidity stays in the 20% or so range so it is not all that uncomfortable if there is shade and any breeze at all.

We broke several records this week for early June. Usually this awful heat is more like July or August. Heat advisories until Thursday.
About a dozen people at a local water park got hospitalized for heat exhaustion waiting to get in.
I work outdoors year round, so I deal with this and the bitter cold in winter, when it hits -20 or worse. I take the heat better than others, it's the cold that seems worse as I get older.

All that water, and no faucet. Who'da thunk it. Hope everyone recuperated, petro.

Speaking of waiting, it's time to go to my doctor's checkup. Have a lovely day, everyone. :huddle:
