    I listen to news radio for traffic reports, and this is getting increasing coverage. As it is, we're over 100 consecutive days with no rain, and none is in sight. Temps next week of 115+ as you also pointed out. It's bone dry now, and fires are popping left and right. So far they've been on the small side, but one up above Wikieup, on the way to Kingman is approaching 3,000 acres. It's going to be bad if we don't get much of a monsoon this year.

    Was gonna say I remember plenty of coal mines driving through clearfield (and surrounding areas) visiting my grandma when she was still alive :)

    I was punking on the NWS graphic where they mislabeled the counties on that tornado statement...lol

    There is bituminous coal out your way, isn't there?

    I spent a week in Phoenix a while back and honestly thought it wasn't as bad as a 70 dew point 90+ degree day over here lol

    Last time I was there it was 101, but with super dry air and breeze I was cold whenever I got out of pool. Crazy different experience than here.

    You guys are both right. 100+ in the shade when it's super dry feels much better than even say 88 with a 72 dewpoint. Once the monsoon hits, it's a different story. 

    While it doesn't happen everyday, you can get days where it's 108 with a 65-70 dewpoint, and then it gets brutal.

    Bring those dew points to PA please!

    But keep those temps away from PA!

    These two posts get a response of :lol: instead of just a reaction.

    Beginning Monday, and lasting for at least a week and a half, our highs will likely meet and exceed 110.
