starting to get warm here... from NWS Area Forecast Discussion:
Temperatures in the lower layers of the atmosphere remain anomalously high (over the 90th percentile of climatology) through the week, supporting the stretch of above-
average temperatures...we had 31 days of high temperatures at or above 100 degrees F in August (ie everyday)... we're in a 39 day streak with high temperatures of at least 100 degrees (began July 24, 2026). This is the third longest 100+ degree day streak behind 2009 (49 days) and 2023 (43 days). Eight (8) daily high temperature records were broken or tied in August. & Forecast: Record high temperatures may be tied or broken across the Rio Grande Valley this week. A Heat Advisory is in effect for heat indices up to 115 degrees F. Hot temperatures, near record to record-breaking, are expected to continue into Labor Day Weekend ( 07 Sept). Widespread Major (Level 3 of 4) to Extreme (Level 4 of 4) Heat Risk of heat-related illness is expected each day. Today's high will be 105-106 F (40.6 C - 41.1 C) Not a good afternoon to do gardening.
I could never live in a place that is that hot Simmer, a beautiful 20C here today.

luckily, everywhere** here is well air-conditioned, including my house. 78 F / 25.5 C in the house is cool enough. I moved from Chicago to South Texas for work, I could feel my blood thin over the first 3 to 6 months. it is rarely below 32 F / 0 C in Winter, in fact it is rarely below 50 F
 
cooled down to 104 F / 40.0 C today which was 45th day in a row of 100+ now 2d place longest streak. 4 more days and we tie all time record, 5 more and it's longest streak on record. And it's not exactly a dry heat, but not has humid as New Orleans. I recall driving to California and approaching El Paso my lips cracked open from THE DRY.
 
still counting the 100+ F streak (37.5 C). Today's forecast was iffy, but we made it to 102 F (39.0 C) at my house and at local airport (full NWS ASOS sensors) making today +56 day in a row. Rain is a high probability tonight and tomorrow which will end the streak, now the longest on record for this location aka South Texas USA.
 
the hot continues unbroken for day 58 in a row of 100+ F -- yesterday it squeaked up to 100 F ( 37.8 C) despite rain and cloudiness and today it was at least 102. prelim forecast is for 100+ tomorrow
