A dangerous heat wave is bringing sweltering temperatures to much of the US this weekend, including over parts of the Ohio Valley and mid-Atlantic. Meanwhile, a tropical system could develop this weekend through the southwest Gulf of Mexico.
It’s a nAtUrAl CyClE

The death of many people from excessive heat and other effects of climate change will be quite a natural consequence of our hubris indeed.
There should be no air conditioning in the white house, congress, senate and supreme court - those assholes should have to experience their work first hand and full temperature.
We’re having an unusually cool year so far in Alberta. It’s been quite chilly even. This has been the first hot weekend, peaking later today, and you wouldn’t believe the number of idiots on social media who think this one cold year has single-handedly disproved climate change. Meanwhile they’ve conveniently forgotten the absolute fucking nightmare the last five summers have been, with smoke-choked skies and perpetual respiratory pain. Though many of them also think the Liberals in Ottawa sent agents out last year to start the wildfires by arson in order to perpetuate the myth of climate change. There is really no winning with these stupid fucks.
Summer just started… at least wait until the year is over before making that incorrect judgment.
At least wait until the year is over the make the judgment that the year has been unusually cool so far? Or are you talking about the other guys?
The other guys.
It’s happening across the midwest as well. It’s supposed to hit 102 on Monday in Nebraska.
Over 100° is not unusual for the Midwest. Although not usuall until late July into August.
The issue will be if these temps become standard and consistent over a wider time period. For one, that could adversely affect crop growth and development.

The fuckers in charge won’t do anything to fix it!
Time to expand Central Park… all the way to Washington DC.
With this pace it will be the central desert.
India: Those are rookie numbers.
Amateurs, I was in italy once and it was 45c(113f) and where i lived it was common to get 38c summer temperatures. Tho where i live now it only goes up to 25 usually and the record was 34.
