Western Oregon is looking at upper 90's later this week thru the weekend, but the outlier Euro models have us up to 105, which I really hope doesn't verify...
The thing is this isn't even the new normal. If humans had simply reset the earth's thermostat and the hotter temps were simply the new normal, then we would all just adapt. Problem is atmospheric carbon dioxide level is at 420 ppm and still just going up. Last time the carbon level was that high was 3 million years ago the eastern seaboard was 60 miles further inland.
As all the northern ice continues to melt away, in the not so distant future we will be wishing for temps like these today. It's a good thing that 90% of the world's ice is in Antarctica and somewhat protected by the antarctic circumpolar current. Gives us a little time to actually get our act together, but I don't see much serious movement by governments.
Maybe when the temps are another 5 to 7 degrees hotter governments will pay some attention to Mother Nature and not just continue to contort themselves over stupid self inflicted wounds. Will things like racism, xenophobia, and misogyny ever be left behind so we can focus on loving each other and saving ourselves?

Noodler, maybe you can answer this for me. Why do they under report the temps? WU predicted 106 here today. It got to 112. Nowhere was the 118 reported the other day. I have a digital weather station and an old fashioned mercury thermometer in the shade on my patio and both jive within 1 degree. It was 118 here. It was 112 today though they report 106? NWS is different than WU but still way under reported. Is it to keep folks from freaking out??
Hot in Portland. About 102 right now and going up to 104 tomorrow so they say. Been this way for days.
Don't have AC except for a portable unit with the tube you stick in the window. Using that upstairs and it still got up to 87 and 90 downstairs. HVAC at work is overworked too and office was about the same.
Mark, the official sites are usually at airports, then there's the rural sites (different networks). I doubt they lie to us, more just happens to be where you're at. We're 5 miles north of our airport, and we're usually within a degree or 5, though sea breezes can brings us down in temps much quicker than the airport, due to where the pass in the coast range is.
Here's a link that includes some of the other networks;
Still holding in the lower 90's here but the constant heat is bringing rain storms almost daily. Usually the hotter the summer the more violent the storms, and the lightning, which is awesome imo

Thankfully, the temps will start to drop a little today, and more on Thursday. My apartment is a third floor walk up with no AC, so I've had to basically wait until after 11 pm to go upstairs, strip down to my skivvies and collapse into bed in front of a fan, then get up early and get going before it gets too hot again. This city isn't built for heatwaves.
I know some of you have had it worse. Hope everyone is faring ok. Mark D has posted some crazy high temps, Mike Edwards has been getting roasted, and all the Oregon Zoner family has been getting grillled. Haven't seen a post from Judit or Llollo in a couple of days. Hope you ladies are just passing the time somewhere cool, watching the Wimbledon action and making travel plans. Looks like the Easties are about to get zapped with high temps and humidity. Stay safe.
A very in shape friend in his 50's had to be rushed to the hospital for heat exhaustion after sitting in the shade for a couple of hours having few beers in a 108+ weather in his yard in the Sierra foothills. Stay safe.
Yes, it's been hot in Oregon. 105˚ yesterday? Today supposed to be 95˚, much easier. I do have cooling for the first year ever (mini-split ductless heat pump) - what a difference! And yes, Wimbledon.

Thankfully, the temps will
Thankfully, the temps will start to drop a little today, and more on Thursday. My apartment is a third floor walk up with no AC, so I've had to basically wait until after 11 pm to go upstairs, strip down to my skivvies and collapse into bed in front of a fan, then get up early and get going before it gets too hot again. This city isn't built for heatwaves.
I know some of you have had it worse. Hope everyone is faring ok. Mark D has posted some crazy high temps, Mike Edwards has been getting roasted, and all the Oregon Zoner family has been getting grillled. Haven't seen a post from Judit or Llollo in a couple of days. Hope you ladies are just passing the time somewhere cool, watching the Wimbledon action and making travel plans. Looks like the Easties are about to get zapped with high temps and humidity. Stay safe.

A very in shape friend in his 50's had to be rushed to the hospital for heat exhaustion after sitting in the shade for a couple of hours having few beers in a 108+ weather in his yard in the Sierra foothills. Stay safe.

Yes, it's been hot in Oregon.
Yes, it's been hot in Oregon. 105˚ yesterday? Today supposed to be 95˚, much easier. I do have cooling for the first year ever (mini-split ductless heat pump) - what a difference! And yes, Wimbledon.
Good wishes to all.

Roasted, yes, but I do have an AC unit that's almost up to the task at least. What most houses don't have up here though is rain gutters.
