Рекордные температуры

Эти два дня побили рекорды самых высоких температур, зарегистрированных на нашем побережье.

В Сиэттле вчера было 102 F.

А у нас, как я и писал ранее, тоже зарегистрирован рекорд. 106 F в Портланде.

SEATTLE – Northwesterners more accustomed to rain and cooler climate sought refuge from a heat wave on Wednesday, as Seattle recorded the hottest temperature in its history and Portland edged closer to its own record-breaker.

The National Weather Service in Seattle recorded 102 degrees by midday at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, breaking a previous record of 100 degrees, set in downtown Seattle in 1941 and repeated at the airport in 1994.

Jay Albrecht, a meteorologist with the service, said it’s the hottest it has been in Seattle since records dating to 1891.

Meanwhile, Portland ventured into its third day of triple-digit heat Wednesday, hitting 104 degrees by midday. Forecasters said there’s a slight chance the city could reach or even surpass its all-time high of 107 degrees, hit four times, most recently in 1981.

Отсюда.

Они там пишут о 104-ех F — на самом деле, сегодня они “поправлялись”.

In Oregon, heat records were set in cities across the western half of the state, with Portland topping out at 106 degrees, breaking the old record of 100 for the day but falling 1 degree shy of its all-time record of 107. Portland most recently hit the 107 mark in 1981.

Сколько это будет по C ° — смотреть сейчас лень. Ночь у нас.
