    As I said, idk what happened at PIT but July 1977 had some brutal heat. However summers with brutal heat, regardless of the winter, are not uncommon in this area with our extreme seasons. But I do think spring 1977 gets lost in the shuffle. That was a very impressive and fast change from one of the coldest winters on record to one of the warmest springs.

    Detroit has now seen a temp range in 2026 from -10° to 97°. The DTX NWS range is -21° to 95°.

    Clearly the east got the brunt of it. Im not as familiar with their summer climo so I really didnt follow where this would rank. Kind of surprised that none of their subs even have a thread for it.

    Thats crazy how it skipped over Pittsburgh. Detroit hit 102 and NYC 104. The month had 14 days 90+ at DTW & 11 days at NYC

    Been a long time since I've seen a storm like that. Temp instantly dropped 20°, I estimate winds at 70 mph, and lots of trees down. Sticks/leaves/debris everywhere.

    Once again....who said its not hot?

    They were a mixed bag but leaned on the cool side. 1972 was by far the coldest summer of the lot. 1987 was a hot one, and in 1977 a blistering heatwave engulfed much of the country in July.

    Actually its more like 3-5° each day here. And again, who said its NOT hot as shit out? That is/was a given. Imagine a snowstorm calling for 8-10" and you get 4-6" and say "it still snowed". That would never fly here lol

    Oh by the way. The 4-day stretch at Detroit ties with 4 other years for 27th hottest on record max temp wise (i recall reading on here previously that we decided to ditch low temps because they run colder now)

    Lmao I ALMOST posted on my post "I know this will freak out the warmistas and I will probably be accused of saying there wasnt a heatwave", but i decided against it. I should have known it wouldn't have taken long. Please tell me how stating a FACT that high temperatures and heat indexes fell consistently short of what was hyped up, forecast, and discussed by local news outlets & the nws for a week straight before the heatwave hit is downplaying the event? I even began by saying its a solid uncomfortable heatwave. You would NEVER start a post with "this is a decent cold snap", it would be "this transient cool down was a failure because the forecast low of -8 was a balmy -7"

    Most expansive heatwave in history? Lmao. I guess the 1930s-50s just removed themselves from history. Not to mention 1988, 1995, 2012, etc

    Yeah. You can easily see the potential if a similar pattern shapes up. Southern MI had an early snowstorm (Nov 21) then the shit december....multiple winter storms Jan-early Mar then a winter encore in early April. Once we passed Christmas, any warm spike was quickly followed by a winter storm. The November snowstorm was very scenic

    It was a solid (not to mention gross & uncomfortable) heatwave for sure but definitely fell short of hype locally. Which i knew would happen and called it last week in a local weather chat im on. One of the local mets said he sees "nothing" that would indicate we fall short of 100 on back to back days (Wed/Thu). They also hyped 110+ heat indexes. The reality? DTW highs were 94, 97, 96 (likely low 90s today). Max heat index was on July 1st at 105. Max dewpoint was 76, also on the 1st. No record highs were set but the record high min of 76 was tied on the 2nd.

    Honestly, 2015-16 was fine outside of December imo
