Anybody here remember the Twilight Zone episode, 'The Midnight Sun'?

[Siwsan]

Where the earth fell out of orbit and was heading closer and closer to the sun? I'm beginning to think of it as a documentary.

SPOILER------ Of course, it was the opposite situation, which doesn't sound all that bad, right now.

1. Where are you located, what's the temp. and humidity?

3. I'm in Flint, MI

Right now it's 92 with about a 37% humidity. We've been in the high to mid 90's, every single day, which is far longer than I can ever remember a heat wave lasting. The relatively low humidity is very weird for Michigan. Everything is scorched because we've had no rain of any consequence, for weeks. I watch it approaching on the radar map, and it just evaporates before it reaches Flint. It's like we are under some sort of anti-moisture force field.

Perhaps I'm just getting delirious from the heat but that episode of the Twilight Zone keeps popping into my mind.

9. It's been 110 for days here.

Today it was finally 90 at around noon with low humidity. I envy you. 92 and low humidity is not bad at all. Come to Oklahoma, or go further south. Then you can complain.

12. I'm not complaining so much as whining

I'd complain if there was someone to complaint TO, who could take care of this discomfort. Since there isn't, I'll just whine.

13. 100+ days here for several days too.

In Missouri.

10. In SW Mich

we just had a severe thunderstorm warning with the promise of high winds, hail and rain. It passed over in about two minutes with nary a drop of rain. Really weird. Hasn't rained in weeks!

14. Makes you want to punch the Global Climate Change deniers in the face...

...doesn't it?

2. I do. Great episode.

I'm sitting here thinking of snow, ice skating, and sledding. It's not helping all that much. It's 105, feels like 110. No air conditioning .

5. YES!!! I've been thinking about that episode--we're at 107 in KCKS

with heat index at 116. I've been thinking about the episode for
days, now.

Smoke 'em if you got 'em--we're told to get used to it.

[woo me with science]

6. Yep.

Thinking of getting out my paint set.

[Politicalboi]

7. It's too bad

We can't make rain clouds. Although it sounds like a crazy thing to do, but it would be something to try and attempt. Like really tall and hydraulic collapsible wind towers that creates condensation in great capacity.

8. My mind is wandering back to cooler times

11. Ahhh....but remember how that episode ended....

They were really drifting AWAY from the sun. The rapidly melting world that the protagonist found herself in was only the product of a fever-induced nightmare. She was actually freezing to death!

You never know, You may wake up tomorrow encased in ice. This all just might be the product of a bad dream.
