Heat Wave in Central Wisconsin

[Lori]

Right now it's 100 degrees with the heat index at 115.   I don't ever remember it being 115 in the 58 years that I've been alive. 

We surely are ... in the last days!   

 

Anyone else in unbearable heat?

The heat index is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity, in shaded areas, to posit a human-perceived equivalent temperature, as how hot it would feel if the humidity were some other value in the shade.

That's really hot. I have only experienced 40°C in Dubai and in Trichy (India).  I wouldn't want to leave the accommodation in such sweltering weather. And it is only going to be even hotter with the El Nino effects coming right soon to South East Asia. @JennyMhad already mentioned experiencing 40°C in the Philippines.

So miserable.    I'm so grateful that I have an AC upstairs at least.

Wisconsin is not a place that I have ever associated with such high temperatures.  But new records for heat are being recorded all over the globe.  And yet there are some people who deny climate change without considering the evidence.
