I had no idea all those years that Heatwave was a Brit band.

The pattern for the northeastern United States will be a 'tale of two weeks' as low humidity and cool to seasonable air much of this week are replaced with surging heat this weekend and the first heat wave of the season for millions next week, AccuWeather meteorologists say. Opportunities for rain will be limited, a switch from much of the spring.
The upcoming weather will provide some great conditions for summertime activity beginning late this week and continuing through much of next week. For some individuals without air conditioning, though, the upcoming building heat may become a problem.
A dip in the jet stream and high pressure that originated in Canada will continue to keep temperatures and humidity levels under control for much of this week. The same high-pressure zone will tend to keep blossoming tropical moisture in the Gulf of Mexico and the Florida Peninsula at bay.
In the Northeast, temperatures will tend to run within several degrees of the historical average through midweek. Highs during the few days before mid-June will range from near 70 F in northern Maine to the mid-80s in eastern Virginia and the Delmarva Peninsula. Because of the dry air, quick cooldowns will continue in the evenings, with very cool conditions during the overnight hours.

The forecast here in NH for next week is hitting 90.
That is pretty warm for June.
I’m in Upstate NY. It’s 58...second day in a row.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Heatwave!
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Heatwave!
Sometimes I stare into space
Tears all over my face
I can’t explain it, don’t understand it
I ain’t never felt like this before
Now this funny feeling has me amazed
Don’t know what to do, my head’s in a haze
It’s like a heatwave
Burnin’ in my heart (it’s like a heatwave)
I can’t keep from cryin’ (it’s like a heatwave)
It’s tearin’ me apart

I had no idea all those years that Heatwave was a Brit band.
“I did a short term consulting gig for a hedge fund manager about 22 years ago. The gig was on the NY/CT border (actually in Westchester County). It was 106oF during a good part of that two week period. T”
I was trying to recall when that happened before. I think it happened in the late ‘80s or early ‘90s as well.
Boo hoo!
- Everyone in God’s oven in south Texas (where we’ve been pre-heating at 98-102 for most of the last 3 weeks).
Sheesh, the hot stuff isn’t even going to be here for a month or so, ya sissies.
Back around 1985, one of my brothers went to New Hampshire for several weeks over the summer to learn Spanish in a very intensive course. When we went to pick him up, it was 106°. It gets hot in the summer, it shouldn’t be news.
WUT! Call out the national guard with giant fans!
