Are you in Albo?

Tom: I didn't know that you were visiting Maracaibo, Venezuela...

Saludos, Pilo

but it sure felt like it, though the humidity was only around 9 or 10%. If I ever make a wrong turn and end up in Venezuela, I will look you up - for sure!

Albuquerque can get hot, but it usually gets down into the mid-60s at night. Works for me.

Ah but it's a DRY heat.
....So it feels like a broiler instead of a sauna like we have in the southeast.


I used to get so tired of people saying it was a dry heat....
It's still HOT

[BajaRon]

If you move the heat lamp back a little the temp will go down!

[ITWorkerBee]

Anywhere above Socorro and yes NM is great, actually cools down at night!

With relatives in Denton TX currently and MAN IT IS HOT!@!!@

Does not matter if you are in the shade or not, and even right now (12:30am) it's 89!!!

[Clicker1944]

Typical Florida summer for us in east central area. 89-94 depending on cloud cover, humid. Better riding after 6pm, but ok during the day if the traffic lights are not too long.
Doesn't take much sweating to get the helmet head plastered down look lol. So far I have avoided getting caught in the summer thunder storms.

Yeah...I tell them that an acetylene torch is dry heat too!!

[SpyderWolf]

Mine showed 107 in the SE Sauna we live in yesterday.

[moabgirl]

I walked out my front door to go for a ryde and I almost melted.

[SpyderGirl]

Yeah, it was pretty toasty here too. Yesterday on our ride back from the dealer it was about 110.

[Tom in NM]

. . . . it stayed around 104 F all day.

Raining now. Nice!

Are you guys going by the dashboard thermometer or another source?

Generally, I go by the thermometer in my yard, but for these temps, I took them while out riding. They are higher than the air temperature registered at the airport, but since I got a new Temperature Sensor a few weeks ago, my Spyder tracks the temperature readings displayed on public displays very closely.

Riding out on the mesas around here, with clear skies, the temps really climb up there. Of course, I could have gone to the top of Sandia peak and the results would have been very different, but where is the fun in that?

Tom - it may hit 75 today, nights are mid 50's, and humidity is right at 30%. Couple that with great roads, scenery, and a noticeable lack of population outside the communist centers (larger cities), and you have the Lord's gift to motorcycles..... come on up for a visit sometime...

[ntxYguy2009]

Tom,

I love the heat - but, would like to send 10 degrees back your way from the D/FW area.

My bike showed 114 today after work then settled "down" to 113. Last Friday it showed 120. Yikes!

ITS SO HOT ... HOW HOT WAS IT? The lizards wore boots to run across the highway.

[BumbleBee]

Same here! Has been so hot, Heat index between 105-110, humidity in the upper 70's, lower 80's.

Does not get much better during the night either

[irish2themax]

The 114 was on my Spyder but rode by a bank which said 115

[Dragonrider]

If I had to suffer through weather like that - add Eastern rain, and all the bugs - I'd never ride a bike - - one can tolerate a day or two at 90, providing the humidity stays below 40%, and the nights cool to 55 or so.

[scudrunner]

Strange summer..... Our temps have not gone above about 95 and have stayed in the lower 90's for the most part. Of course, humidity has been in the 80's giving us heat indexes in the 100's. But usually, we are hotter than you guys up north! And I want to thank each and everyone of you for taking the heat from us for once.
Stay cool. Currently at 9:30 am, 88 degrees, 75% humidity and a heat index of 101. Feels like spring!
