Phoenix is having anything but a normal summer. The beginning was was cooler. Now it's way hotter than normal and breaking records for consecutive days. The humidity is so high we should be in monsoon season, but it's so hot there is no cloud formation. I don't watch the MSM, and I don't know what they are pushing, but it's absolutely no where near a normal Summer in Phoenix. Edit: Evidence from NWS The record longest number of days in a row with low temps in the 90s in Phoenix has been reached at 8 days! The low this morning at Sky Harbor was 95 degrees which breaks the previous record warm low of 93 degrees. Another hot day (and week) ahead, with today expected to tie the record for Phoenix of most consecutive days of high temperatures reaching or exceeding 110 degrees at 18 days.

116-118F is pretty normal summer temps for Phoenix wrt “heat wave”. Not sure how this in dispute.

  FWIW, it's only mid July. Not the hottest part of the year typically. Yet we're hitting historical records. The thing I'm concerned about is that it is likely going to get even hotter. What happens if - when - we see rolling power outages required to support the increased power demands is an open question.

  A few days having that temperature in a row is normal. this many is not. If you're not sure how it's in dispute, the fact it's records is the reason. Records dispute normal.

    Sure you have records which compare the current facts with historical facts to see if what Phoenix is currently experiencing is normal or not. But the person you're replying to has anecdotes about how it's hot in the summer in Phoenix. So we are at a stalemate it seems :P

  Overnight temperatures well into the 90's for multiple days in a row is not "normal summer temps".
