Heat Waves?

The NYT reports hot an humid conditions today.

``Saturday, one meteorologist said with scientific precision, was looking to be “one of those just downright awful summer days.”''

``The stifling heat blanketing the mid-Atlantic this summer seems to be part of a global trend. So far, 2010 is on track to overtake 2005 as the warmest year ever recorded for the planet, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.''

Here in Chilpancingo it is pleasant. On the radio I heard that today and tomorrow is going to rain in most of the state. It is not hot is 84°F and 78% humidity.

Some places in the US it has been over a hundred Fahrenheit.

Hurricane Bonnie, has something to do with it. Mexico has a thin middle part, compared to the US, so we get humidity both ways, the Pacific, and the Atlantic.

I do not think we can know for sure, if more and more extreme weather will happen. My gut feeling is that from now until I die, we will see some big heat waves. I better find ways to keep cool. Here though, so far so good.
