Ahh yess the late sunset and a current temp of.. 86F with a 72F Dew Point at 7pm.... I'ts official Summer!

79 degrees, 43% humidity and a nice breeze here! A BEAUTIFUL first evening of summer!

Very nice evening in Ybor City tonight!

The current temperatures have dipped to 80°F in Pompano Beach, so it is quite warm for the first early morning hours of the meteorological summer (although this is south Florida). Fortunately, the maritime seabreeze effect is a blessing near the coasts of the state... it reduces the effects of the humidity! The high dewpoints have made conditions unbearable.

Slight error-Meteorological Summer begins on June 1st-Astronomical Summer begins on June 21st.

Thanks for the correction. I initially meant to state that the astronomical summer has started.

It's an absolutely beautiful 74 degrees with a pleasant dew point of 51 here.

92 degrees out and 50% humidity...yeah it's summer.

Cat 5 - I'd take this weather ALL SUMMER LONG! What an absolutely beautiful day today, though it was a little windy.

We'll be back in the heat and humidity next week though.

It's been GORGEOUS! I'm right with you Steph, I'd take this all summer myself!
Dreading Monday

92-93 degrees today across miami today...

Hot here too, but unlike more humid areas at least it still cools off at night. Today we had an official high of 92. Low was 39.

Wednesday was our official hottest day of the year so far at 95. Overnight low was 35.

Since it's cool in the mornings, I still wear long pants when I ride to my work, but then I roast on the way home.

Weather forecast says more of the same for the next week. Highs 90-95 and lows 35-45.

Yes, summer is here.

Well. Summer has arrived today. Highs in the low to mid 90s and dewpoints in the 70s, disgusting.

It is so humid here this morning that the windows have all fogged over. I have a feeling that means we are in for some big rain storms this afternoon.

To me, that reads worse then a tornado warning.

Tad Balmy for you folks up north as well... We set a record 98 yesterday and I did see 97 at least today. Summer kicked it into hyperdrive..

WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THURSDAY FOR HIGHLY URBANIZED AREAS.

I recorded 97 yesterday, and that was when it was cloudy.

It's 85 and extremely humid right now.

All that heat and humidity has ONE upside
