It’s a forecast so hot that it left some seasoned meteorologists initially in disbelief.

Weekend temperatures are expected to approach 100 degrees in Seattle, top 109 in Portland and reach 115 in Eastern Washington — threatening to topple historical records and upend people’s lives. 

“Is this just the models being wonky, or is this a real deal?” said Joe Boomgard-Zagrodnik, a postdoctoral researcher in agricultural meteorology at Washington State University, describing his reaction to initial temperature readouts.

When he assessed the data himself, “it was jaw-dropping.” 

Climate scientists and meteorologists say the forthcoming heat wave — which could persist into next week — is a manifestation of climate change and a concerning signal of what they expect more frequently in the Pacific Northwest, which is poorly adapted to extreme heat.

I’m from Arizona and in Yuma 115 is usual for summer. Hottest I’ve felt was 120z As long as you got some A/C you should be fine.

If we get temperatures this high in my country this summer we're so f*cking screwed because there's barely any power and we can't turn on our ACs :bear: 

Soft, soothing, and succulent

I’m still scared about the huge earthquake that’s supposed to hit California but we don’t know exactly when it’ll happen :rip:

“Experts define The Big One as a quake of at least a 7.8 magnitude along the southern part of the San Andreas Fault. That quake would be 44 times stronger than Southern California's Northridge earthquake of 1994, which caused 72 deaths, about 9,000 injuries and an estimated $25 billion in damage.”
