someone sez..... "But relief is on the way. Cooler air should begin moving into the Plains states this weekend, as a strong pool of air from the jet stream begins to push hot air out of the way in the Dakotas and into Minnesota before making its way east. By Monday, temperatures will drop into the mid-80s in the north."

Only for a liitle while then the heat dome will come back. It will last [[ mostly) to mid August. This is a La Nina created heat dome. It slowly budges from the midwest to the New England areas. The Heat dome blocks out cloud making convection into thunderstorms but cooler air rides at the back end of the heat dome. It's made out of high pressure meant to keep the gulf moisture from entering the midwest. The result is more droughts in the south and Texas. There will be More flow of Monsoonal rains to popcorn thunderstorms from New Mexico to the North Dakotas. The heat dome will bring paratropical heat up to 120 degrees to the midwest to New England areas in America. This event happens since last glacial maximum 10,000 years ago. So get used to it and don't complain about it. The middle part of North America enviroment will get a global warming preview that would look the the enviroment out of the Jurassic Period.

WORD FROM THE STREET PROPHET

Even the Dinosaurs don't complain about the heat. They like it.

Neda, I miss you so.
