... Several locations once again hit the century mark...

Several locations have once again hit the century mark this

afternoon. This Marks the third time this year many locations

have reached this mark. For many locations this moves the Summer

of 2012 up the all time list for reaching this benchmark.

For Detroit Metro Airport 100 degrees has been reached three times

this year. This puts 2012 third on the all time list for reaching

this temperature... behind 1988 when it was reached 5 times and

1936 which hit it 8 times. Below is a table for dtw.

Detroit Metro Airport reaching or exceeding 100 degrees:

1936 - 8 times

1988 - 5 times

2012 - 3 times

For Flint Bishop Airport hitting 100 degrees ties 2012 for fifth

on the all time list which also occurred in 1930. This is behind

1934 which hit this mark 8 times... 1936 which hit it 7

times... 1931 which hit it 5 times and 1988 which reached this mark

4 times. Below is a table for fnt.

Flint Bishop Airport reaching or exceeding 100 degrees:

1934 - 8 times

1936 - 7 times

1931 - 5 times

1988 - 4 times

2012/1930 - 3 times

Just went walking around Midtown to pick up a few pizzas so I didn't have to cook anything today, the AC is having enough trouble keeping it cool as it is. Breeze or no breeze...it is extremely hot out there to put it lightly, especially in such a highly urbanized area. I do not envy the guys in the back cooking.

FWA should easily tie and probably break their record of 100° today.

If so, only two to tie and three to break the record for most 100º days in one year (8 in 1934).

2 bummers. #1-When I posted that this morning, I was looking at yesterday's record. Today's record is 99, which they have tied. #2 -Unless there was a between hour bump, 100 is out the window due to convection.

Milwaukee has hit 100, 3rd 100+ of the year. Breaks the old daily record of 98

Nice! would have sucked to of .rotted at 99.

Euro doesn't look, too, terrible, surely nothing we can't handle.

End of the run we'll be knocking on August door already along with the days getting shorter by 2+ mins and the average high temp starts its slow trek downward. Advantage, icepu$$ies soon enough

for me. amazing how summers here with so much to do just fly by no matter how miserable the weather.

Looks like 99 here for a high, which is the 34th day this year AOA 90 and the seventh in a row. Slightly more Cu than expected (though never extremely high coverage) prevented the year's sixth 100+; the most favorable thermal ridging was just to the north. *Probably* will get another 90+ in tomorrow before the streak looks to end on Thursday in at least some clouds.

Wonder if we broke it intra-hour...according to TWC, we topped out at 103 but I remember that one day we hit 99 in June, they had us listed at 100 so I'm skeptical.
