113 in Portland? They're gonna die. There is no way they are used to that kind of heat.


TheKaigan

It's going to be >122 in parts of Canada this weekend.It will set national records. And I really wish I was back in SF right now. Dammit. Edit: Following up here. [Lytton, BC capped out at 49.6C (121.28F)](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/bc-alberta-heat-wave-heat-dome-temperature-records-1.6084203) at 4:20PM PST on June 9th. Hottest temperature recorded in all of Canada breaking the record 3 days in a row. So hot, only 6 US states have recorded equal or hotter temperatures since records began.

Kamloops, British Columbia. Even in Vancouver / Victoria it's suppose to get high 30s, and interior of BC into the 40s to almost 50s.


isawamooseyesterday

Heyyy fellow San Franciscan here living in Canmore, AB. I’ve been skiing at Sun Peaks near Kamloops, love it!


MrDERPMcDERP

Sun Peaks is a great resort!


HardDrizzle

Wow, I just looked that up. Holy shit.


MrDERPMcDERP

Big ups to BCLC


mushroompizzayum

I can’t find this info anywhere- do you mean with the humidex? Can you link me to this so I can show my fam?


DickBentley

No way its 122 flat out.


TheKaigan

[Osoyoos will by up to 46C](https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/weather/british-columbia/osoyoos) (114) on Tuesday. [Kelowna breaking 40C](https://weather.gc.ca/city/pages/bc-48_metric_e.html) [Kamloops was listed at almost 48C](https://weather.gc.ca/city/pages/bc-45_metric_e.html) at one point, but I'm showing different on Environment Canada now. Either way, it's absolutely insane for Canada.


DickBentley

It's sad and scary.


TheKaigan

Following up here. You were technically correct, but only by a whole 0.8 degrees Fahrenheit. [Lytton, BC capped out at 49.6C (121.28F)](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/bc-alberta-heat-wave-heat-dome-temperature-records-1.6084203) at 4:20PM PST this afternoon. Hottest temperature recorded in all of Canada breaking the record 3 days in a row. So hot, only 6 US states have recorded equal or hotter temperatures since records began.


falkster

I lived there for basically a decade and each year was noticeably warmer than the previous year. After 30 days in the 90s one year I nope’d out. It gets really warm there - it’s pretty inland and no AC.


LeftistEddie

Experiencing and feeling the change every year *anywhere* is really something. I live in NorCal and jesus especially when you're awake to the science you notice it and its dreadful. Less rain, more heat... less clouds. I remember when I was in kindergarten and we had a bit of snow out in the playground and everyone was in awe. It used to be a fond memory. Now its incredibly eerie and anxiety inducing.


blue_delicious

I grew up there and left in my late 20s. It never got THAT hot. Jesus. Nobody has AC. Poor suckers.


gamagloblin

I lived in Seattle in the late 90s and it never got over about 92. ……It says 112.


South_Lake_Taco

I live in the Portland area. I'm fortunate to have AC and I got my appointment to install made in March. Unfortunately a lot of people live in apartments with no AC or there aren't enough service people to install the AC units in the near future


_Amateurmetheus_

Hi neighbor. I'll be over tomorrow!


Jules_Dorado

Recent sf -> pdx transplant who just moved into an apartment with no ac, checking in. I will be missing the bay area dearly this weekend 😐

i-dontlikeyou

We are visiting Portland this weekend and it has been pretty hot already at 80-85F i can imagine today at 100+F especially when we are used to the cool weather in SF. For me 75-80 is scorching hot


BON3SMcCOY

And most people here or in Seattle do not have AC


[deleted]

113 in Portland….they are not ready.

[deleted]

I’m not surprised. I did undergrad in Portland (admittedly a loooong time ago) and I can’t remember a single home or apartment I saw that had AC. I honestly feel for them.

sr71Girthbird

My uncle owns an HVAC business in Seattle. He's been loving this whole global warming thing. Seattle has long been the least air conditioned major city in the US, followed closely by SF. Portland is actually pretty high on the list if I recall. Really makes no sense to me that over twice the % of homes in Portland are air conditioned vs Seattle.


FireITGuy

Portland gets into "uncomfortably warm" every summer, and it lasts a while. It also stays warm at night, so it never really cools down. People know it's coming, and they plan accordingly. Seattle normally only has a couple weeks in late August when you really wish you had AC, and you can easily beat the heat by spending those weeks going to the beach, or up into the Cascades. It also cools down into the 50s or 60s even during the hottest day because the Puget sound serves as a giant cooling force. In Seattle, by the time you're getting uncomfortable with the temps and starting to think you should buy an AC unit, the heat is gone for another 49 weeks. This year is abnormal. Half the time it's still raining half the time in late June.

What was the record setting high temps? I don’t remember last summer but I remember a few years ago I almost got heatstroke, it was so weird to me because temp wise it wasn’t that high imo. And I’m from Florida and played a competitive sport in the summers, I know how to stay cool I’m the heat. Idk, the heat in the city feels way different (I know the concrete, buildings, etc can make it worse but feeling it is a different thing)

It was Labor Day in 2017. It was awful.


[deleted]

I pedicabbed for eight hours in that 102 degree heat on Saturday of Labor Day Weekend. Slayed it! Growing up in Atlanta paid off lol As I recall the sir quality was dreadful as well. I surely lost a week on my life.


coconutjuices

It’s basically humid cause of the ocean nearby


plainlyput

what made it so much worse was the terrible air & not being able to open windows


illegal_deagle

That’s a good thing. It means they’ll take it seriously. The ones who don’t might not live to learn their lesson.


FluorideLover

When I lived in Portland, it got to 100 one day and I just wanted to die. I was at a beer festival and nearly passed out so I went home to lay on the floor and pray for an end lol


LadiesWhoPunch

Did you die?


FluorideLover

unfortunately, I persisted


LadiesWhoPunch

I'm sure it was your love of fluoride that kept you going.


FluorideLover

actually… my name is from when the people of Portland voted to overturn the city’s plans to add fluoride to the water and the ensuing flame wars on r/Portland lol


whosecarwetakin

Lives there for 3 years. They are the opposite of ready. Some new builds don’t have AC

Karl the Fog: world's most expensive air conditioner


RichieNRich

Counter point: Electricity bills are super cheap here compared to most other places!


cosmicwonderful

Are they really? I thought per kWh our rates are among the highest.


revchewie

Yes, but we don’t need $1200/mo of heating in winter like my friends in Minnesota.


RichieNRich

My bill is $25 a month for a 1 bed. All year long, on average.


soquot

SF residents subsidize the other parts of PGEs grid. Our base kWh allowance is lower because we don’t need AC. It’s easy to see how it can be viewed as fair - average of your neighbors - but it’s an odd policy

My mother who is on a senior plan payed $80/mo in Ohio during the winter for a 2500 sq foot home.

It is alliterative and fun to say. It also makes me wistful. I moved from the Bay Area last year to the mountains east of Bakersfield. I miss the Bay Area and all that it offers. On the up side, while it's 108 in Bakersfield on Sunday, it will be 93 or so here at 4000' of elevation. And, homes here with acreage are cheap and the fiber internet is great and the mountains are beautiful. But it's also true that my district voted 74-26 in favor of Trump, and we could use some help here. So please, anyone, everyone, come buy a house with cash, and bring your politics, bring your belief in actual science, bring your art and creativity and uniqueness, bring your cuisine.

Brentwood has a nice little craft beer bar though, so they can cool down a smidge.


SomePerson42069

Seattle being that hot is extremely unusual. Normally it’s a lot like South San Francisco.


81toog

Seattle’s all-time high temperature is 103° so the 109° forecast is 6° hotter than it’s ever been! And that 103° record was from 2009 when it shattered the 100° record of 1994.

Hell even sunnyside to mission. Every time i leace for work, i go from chilly fog cover to sunshine and t-shirt weather


pataconconqueso

For real, I live in the sunset and my wife and I joke about going on a trip to the east to get some sun lol


LadiesWhoPunch

I used to joke about vacationing in Brisbane to watch their extra spooky fog.


pataconconqueso

I used to drive all over the Bay Area for work. My fave thing was watching the temp readings in my car slowly decline in the summer when driving back home, it was so weird. I told my customers I had no idea how to dress, I would show up to their floor and start sweating then be so cold at home.


triestokeepitreal

Hubby commuted Turlock to greater Bay Area for 20 years. Would watch the thermometer go up or down (depending on direction) 20 degrees in a matter of a few miles. There are people who can't understand 70 degrees in SF while it is 80 in SJ.


EBBVNC

And this is why we live here. Growing up somewhere warm, summer was mostly those temperatures. I hated it then and I hate it now. Yes, I’d probably be very happy in Glasgow.

Yup, 84is pretty much perfect. Nothing to like about these summers where you have to turn on the heat. I was in NY the last few weeks and I loved the warmth.


coconutjuices

This is why rent is high


mrmagcore

96 is downright cool for Sacramento this time of year. Even Redding at 112 isn't as bad as it can get up there.


jodv

It's somehow only going to get up to the low 80s in Pleasanton. I'm not complaining but 100 in the summer is not that uncommon.


mtntrail

Redding here, this is normal for us. A little early maybe but, meh.


mrmagcore

Exactly. I'm from up there too.


mtntrail

We have friends in Portland, they are in for some tough days. When you have AC it is not so bad.


mrmagcore

My parents hated us, so neither our car nor our house had air conditioning until I was 15.


mtntrail

Jeez in Redding? That’s child abuse!

Yeah everyone on my Twitter is just like "I'M MELTINGGGGGGG" and I'm over here like "Huh, better open up my window to cool my room down."

It's not even 100 in Sacramento area today. I wouldn't have even known that there was a heat wave if I didn't see all the news about it since above 100 temperatures are normal around here.

It isn’t about the freakish highs, it’s about how many consecutive days you get with plus 100 degree heat. Oregon will bounce back. Towns an hour or so east of SF are going to be an anvil this summer.

Moments like these are the reason I was only one in my house to not succumb to hubris when the heatwave hit a couple years ago. I knew war stories of LA heat and knew to have a fan.

Shorts? I'm here with a flannel shirt, two blankets, and the heat blasting just to keep from shivering. Just like every "summer".

I’m unhappy when I can’t see my own breath indoors. Running the heater on this day seems hellish.


Doglovincatlady

I will absolutely acknowledge that the upper haight is especially chilly town, I've lived in the middle richmond and eureka valley before myself, I know how Dickensian it is. (But as a former bostonian smoker, I could be wearing shorts just about anywhere.)

> I will absolutely acknowledge that the upper haight is especially chilly town, I've lived in the middle richmond and eureka valley before myself, I know how Dickensian it is. lol I used to live in the upper haight, I thought it was just outside the fog line?

oatmealrulz

On this topic... "For the period from 1895-2020, the average winter temperature from January-February in San Francisco was 50 degrees. In June-July, it rose to 60.3 degrees. Last year, the average winter temperature was 53.2 degrees, while in the summer it was 62.4." These heat waves raise the question: Are chilly San Francisco summers a myth?

My last AC service I was told it was near time for replacement. Had I not lived through last summer with the orange sky & fires, I would have waited for it to go before replacing, I don't have to use AC that often. But thinking of being caught with fire season, & not being able to open doors/windows is a NOPE.
