As of right now 105. Humidity is low today, though. Only about 30%.
So the heat index is only 112.

Yesterday, the humidity was 42%. That would have made the heat index 124, which is quite toasty...

That heat sucks. Last weekend a golfer (Lucas Glover) won a pro tournament but got lots of jokes about him sweating through his pants. Well it was like 95 degrees there and a dewpoint of 80. That is nearly off the charts for humid... any dewpoint about 60 in the summer is too high for me, it's one reason I moved to Minnesota (for real).

I know I have shared this before about Bangkok, but to make you appreciate Minesoooota more. The vertical axis is the % of the day at each particular dew point category.
Dry <55
Comfortable = 56 - 60
Humid = 61 - 65
Muggy = 66 - 70
Oppressive = 71 - 75
Miserable = > 76Currently 1145 pm, and dew point = 75. From May through October, about 95% of the time, it is >70, regardless of time of day.
But, the great thing about humans is that we do adapt, and become (somewhat) used to it.
