With the steady climb of the thermometer the last week or two, it was only a matter of time: this afternoon the heat index hit 100°F for the first time this year. The temp was 92.2°F while the RH was 52%; yielding a HI of 100°F/38°C. (HI is an approximation of what the temperature & humidity conditions feel like.) Online HI calculator: http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/html/heatindex.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_index We're packing away the long-sleeved items and breaking out more and more fans. Where's that rain?? (I know, in August and September we'll be wishing the HI was "only" 100...)
