Last year we had a record of 30+ days over a hundred. August is typically our hottest month, this has been a wonderful year, just the right amount of rain, and the temps have been normal. So, no complaining here.
I work outside so I'm pretty used to the heat. Looking forward to the fall however!
What ever happened to the mole?

I live in hot and humid territory...but it's been brutal these last weeks...it's rained (finally) for three days now so the temps have dropped a bit to the lower 90's-high 80's during the day. It's 78F right now at 9:00 PM.
If there wasn't air conditioning I wouldn't live here at all.

The City is like the UK. When the temps get above 80, people start to die.

I agree; it's right handy for conveying a lot of information quickly in an easily readable format.
It's likely that even Edward R. Tufte ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Tufte ) would approve. Wow— that's a terrible Wikipedia article. If you're interested in the subject and you get a chance to look at his book, The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, I think you'd find it fascinating. He is considered to be the master of the field.

Today was nice here in southern Florida. It only reached 83° F here with a humidity of around 99%.
Yesterday was a bit uncomfortable because it reached 93°F with a humidity of right at 98% (Yes I do have a thermometer sitting outside in the shade with a built in Humidistat. Call me a bit of a geek. I can't however tell you what the barometer is reading as I don't have one of those since one of my cats knocked it off the shelf.
Tomorrow is supposed to get hot again and with all of the rain we;ve been getting I'm sure the humidity will be right up there.
Some good ways to tell if it's uncomfortable out:
Grandmas mascara is running and it isn't raining and she isn't crying.
The car next to you has the windows up, the windows are fogged on the outside and the guy driving the car is still wiping the sweat off his face.
If you drive down the road in a residential neighborhood all you would hear would be the drone of the Air Conditioners.
The joggers are walking.
Your neighbor walks to the mailbox and you get a Wet T-Shirt contest entry.
The cop who pulls you over doesn't get out of his car. Instead he tells you to walk back to him.
You sweat through your leather belt walking from the house to your car, in your garage.
When you park your motorcycle on tar you put down a parking puck.

I pulled the grate off one of the subfloor vents so they can get under the house.We've called Animal Control on many of the strays we feed.
They can't survive in this heat.

We're having the same weather here in Illinois. My car has no AC and as I sit in the road construction going on near us, it's misery. But then I remind myself that I'm not out working in it like the state road crew. I dread tomorrow already. 98,97,98 this week.

Makes you understand why so many of the First Nations were nomadic. If you don't like the weather, go somewhere else! Winters in the south, Summers in the mountains or by the seashore. Makes sense to me . . .

Russia is on fire:
http://www.therelive.com/2010/08/fires-burn-across-russia.html
700 people a day are dying in Moscow, most not from the fire directly but due to the heat and smog. Their infrastructure is collapsing and with no money, in no way can they handle this heat wave.
An island of ice more than four times the size of Manhattan broke off from a glacier in Greenland and is making way to wreck havoc in the northern trade routes.

I'm just so glad we had a lot of snow last winter which proved climate change is a hoax
