Pattern JUULY 2025 Smokin Heat Thraad

KPDK: 93
KFYY: 92
KFCC: 92

Humidity is lower, skies are blue, and temps will climb much higher today.

Currently 84.9/71.4
 
In my area at noon, the HI was 5 higher than it was 24 hours ago due to a combo of it being 2 hotter and dewpoints being 2-3 higher.
 
Tampa has on record never hit 100 with records back to 1890! Other than the Keys and St. Pete, all other major FL stations have hit 100 with most several times. Even Miami hit 100 in July of 1942.

Edit for correction: I forgot to check Naples. Their alltime highest on record is 99, set in August of 1986, which they missed by just one degree today. They tied their alltime July hottest on record.

Tampa was 97 at 1PM today, a whopping 7 hotter than 24 hours earlier! Unlike yesterday at 1PM, winds today are from a hot inland NE direction. Skies are mostly sunny. They’ll have a chance to barely hit 100 though the forecast is for upper 90s.

There’s a 597-8 dm H5 centered over S GA.

We are actually getting a light shower here at the house near Lake Wheeler. I just got back from taking my granddaughter to Target and she predicted it to my shock. She said, "Pa Pa, we are going to get some rain". I blew it off in the back of my mind and kept driving. Sure enough, I got home to light rain falling. Today she was more weatherwise than I was.
 
Strong disagreement between local PWS and ASOS around here.

Nearest PWS
101.5/76.3 (117) and 100.8/75 (115)
Meanwhile, nearest ASOS
95/66 (99)
 
1. Thanks to a popup thunderstorm, FAY plunged from 100 and an HI of 114-5 at 1PM to 83 at 2PM!

2. Tampa hit 99 at 2PM. 99 already ties the alltime record hit 6/26/2020 and 6/5/1985!

If you flip the vehicle upside down it’s only 66 degrees which isn’t too bad honestlyView attachment 173675
I doubt these are very accurate. This is not in a parked vehicle. I was picking my stepson up at work and this is on the way there traveling at 55mph. Not in town at an intersection. Screenshot_20250727_144037_Gallery.jpg

We generally like to say that the car needs to be running a bit before you factor in the temps the car says...and even then, it's probably still off.

Still a bit of time left, but KAGS stalled at 97-98 after it ramped quickly to start the day.

If you struck a match around here the entire county would go up in a puff of smoke. Probably so fast it would be painless. Need rain. Bad

Big line moving in @Avalanche hope you are watching all this rising scud on the outow. Looks awesome
 
Macon, GA topped out at 99 today, they still have yet to hit 100 this year. I briefly touched 100 today in Eastman, this was the first century mark reading of the year for my location. Macon’s stretch of not hitting 100 will probably end tomorrow as it looks as if Monday will be the benchmark day for Central/Southern GA during this heat wave.
 
Highest I saw on my thermometer today was 98.7. It’s still 96.6.

Highest at Hunter was ~100 w/HI of ~110. Highest at KSAV was 97 with HI of ~107.
