@laistofficial: An end to this sweltering heat is in sight, but not here quite yet. The upcoming cooldown comes after an exceptionally hot week in Southern California, likely one of the hottest of the year and the latest in this summer’s relentless string of heatwaves. 🔗 More on weather at LAist.com. 💪 Be part of keeping local news strong: LAist.com/Donate 🎥 Lucas Brady Woods, Joshua Letona
Every year we freak out. Downtown was 114 in 2010.

We have had hotter heat waves, but they’ve only lasted 3 to 4 days. This is the first time in 60 years heat waves going on for 2 1/2 weeks.

Besides the long spell of humidity we're having now, anyone here remember the extremely humid summers of 2018 and especially 2015? Before that we had notably humid/tropical summers in 2012, 2006, 1997, 1984, and 1976–77 — several exceptional for their time. This year may be humid, but coastal SoCal summer humidity is definitely not new.

I moved when I retired to the Pacific Northwest instead. I have a home with a view of the bay, no traffic and no sweltering heat.

I can’t wait until Monday. 3 days in the 80s sounds like a dream here in the Valley.

keep an eye out for animals!!! carry water on you at all times, blanket (for paws to be protected), and some treats. They don't get any relief, the least we can do to help!

I remember walking outside March 2013 & feeling wicked humidity, lasted through October. Nobody talks about the dew point either, it was/is crazy high. San Diego has changed considerably since 😩
