Northeast Dallas this afternoon, the weather station air temp was 105F and the temp/humidity index was 120F.
Yesterday air temp was 109F and don't know the index number.
Except for the Mojave Basin, Dallas area is hottest place in the USA.

Funny. We moved to the desert last week. I've been (bike) riding each morning at 6am super nice. But daytime temps have averaged 105+. Went on a couple of short rides and felt like I was being blasted with a hot hair dryer. Almost thinking of getting a half helmet! Still... Beats a day in the dentist chair doesn't it!?

I had to go to court in Jacksonville today and it looked like there would be no rain, at least for the ride up, so I took the bike. It's almost 150 miles each way. The temperature was 99°. I made it there and went inside and the opposing party moved for a continuance. It took all of 5 minutes before I turned around and rode home. Wound up doing 293 miles in just under 5 hours, including time spent in court, and the temperature never dropped. I'm glad I got paid to ride, I earned it in that heat...
99* is hot? damn, that would be a cold front here
.....winter is nice here. i can always add more layers for warmth. only so much you can take off...
