108 degrees in NYC today..

Ah, so it was nice and cool for you up there! Would you like a sweater? I haven't worn mine... well... ever. I'm joking, it only got up to 100 here in Texas. But 109 can be a typical summer day here. Has been for years. I try to go swimming when I'm out. And sit in the shade. I'm used to heat. I get cold when it gets down to 70.

so, in Israel you would feel the same but for many more days like that in a year. yesterday, for example, it was 97 degrees ( farenheit). on june, 21 last year we had 110 !!!! and i am not talking about the desert area but near tel-aviv, near the medetereniean see. so, i would love to have the weather where you live, at least, you have many days of snow... lucky you!

Oh, that is really extremely hot. That's the heat wave coming in, right ? One has to stay indoors and try not to go out unless it is absolutely needed. We are lucky here today. The temperature here is around 70 degress F. Atleast, it is quite bearable compared to other places.

It was a little over a 100 degrees here near Baltimore. The AC in the house could not keep it cool, and I barely felt it in the car. I'm soooo looking forward to cooler weather and would really appreciate a thunderstorm right now!!!

When i read your discussion title i thought you are talking about degree celcious but then i later realized it was degree F. That kind of temperature is normal in summer in my place.So it is not at all a shocking news.Actually we have got used to these kind of temperatures. I understand how hard it is for NY people.I think it is all because of global warming that temperatures are getting so high.

We are having rain these days here in the Philippines. But when it gets hot, it is really hot that I hardly go outdoors. It is so scary to think that it is getting hotter and hotter.
