Fortunately here in Sacramento we get few earthquakes but there's been a mudslide blocking the ARBT right by my house for the last half a year.
My employer wants to move to Huntsville, AL, which is like the main street the tornado alley branches off from

Monday 117, Tuesday 119, Wednesday 117, Thursday cool down 111. We're looking at another week or so before it dips below 110.

Yeah it's been toasty the past week. Riding home during the hottest part of the day isn't the most enjoyable but at least I'm still riding!

Never mind the tornadoes in Huntsville, the snow and ice is what will get you. 1/4" of either and running both snowplows won't get the job done.

It's rare... but we just had a Pacific Northwest heat wave. Saturday was 95. Sunday 97. Now it's over... today the high temp was 72. I'm perfectly happy if we don't hit the 90's again this summer.

I don't want 120 degrees, but I wish it would warm up here in Wisconsin! I had to wear long sleeves and gloves on my way to work this morning. Brrrr.

Same here in lower-Michigan. Decided to go on my 18 mi. mixed paved and a few miles of gravel. Felt full finger gloves and long sleeves would be best. They were.

Honestly I set my riding threshold at 110F. I'll be riding in tomorrow, with a projected high of 109, but last week was a big time no-go for riding for me

Better today in terms of the temperature, but man was it humid! Not sure if you got any of the storms we got last night in Southern Wisconsin. But this morning was damp and I was sticky upon arriving at work!
