Alaska and Hawaii probably have very simple explanations as to why 100 are their respective all time records.

I just like to think that in Hawaii, they don't have a large enough area of land to support major heatwaves, even though their climate is very warm. I think many islands have similar heat records. They have climate consistency to brag about. Alaska has only barely reached 100F due to them being so far north on the world map. I imagine Russia doesn't often see 100 either. 

Though with Phoenix having never matched Portland's 116, that one intrigues me more so. 

Southern Russia can actually get pretty toasty in the summer. The Lower Volga valley / Caspian lowland is actually a desert and some places have some pretty hot averages, like Astrakhan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrakhan#Climate and even Volgograd https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volgograd#Climate

(I also just learned that the Volga River Delta is below sea level.)

Salem, Las Vegas, and Tucson have the same all time record high.

Portland's 116 is still hotter than the all time records of 115 in Sacramento and Fresno however!

Maybe I messed up, or was using another city who never hit 116.. lol 

Yeah, apparently 122 is their all time. :P

I was initially trying to show there are cities that see 100 not-so-rarely but 110's are harder territory.

00z back to showing a cool, drizzly Sunday, ironically due to higher heights aloft. Stronger inversion, less mixing. Marine layer stays persistent.

Not quite, but actually southern Oregon is a great comparison to what I was getting at. They easily get hotter summers than PDX.

36 holes at Gold Mountain on Monday, preceded by 18 at McCormick Woods on Father's Day.

Hope it's dry. Cool is fine. Either way, ibuprofen will be the drug of choice.

I like McCormick. Have played 2-3 times the past year. A lot of nice courses over those parts like trophy lake etc.

Yeah, but those locations are both further south than us here in northern Washington. On the other hand, how about Verkhoyansk? Located at 67º North the average winter high is -43F, but in 2019 it was the first location north of the arctic circle on record to get above 100F.

I do find it funny how easily moisture all the way from the Gulf of Mexico, normally far upstream, can make it to Montana, and even points west during favorable patterns. Part of me wonders how often Seattle ever recieves any.

Monday may very well end up a chilly day too given a well (or ill) timed weak upper level trough swinging through. Potentially four straight days in the 50s from Friday through Monday, in late June. Smothering the weekend completely! Absolutely an improvement over 110 degree heat.

95 degrees is absolutely an improvement over 110 degree heat.   Pretty much any other weather that we have ever had is an improvement over 110 degree heat.   Getting a root canal is an improvement over 110 degree heat.  Still not fun though.

Owww...off topic, but the all time high temperature record for Georgia is 112F. Other states which would be at risk of setting all time high temperatures if this verified next week would be Alabama (112F), South Carolina (113F), North Carolina (110F), and Florida (108F). Time for the southeast to get the Heat Dome!

Ugh.....I've been trying to get back to see family in Georgia, and at one point next week was circled on the calendar.  The area I will be visiting is right under the 107 in the northern part of the state.  Glad I'll be missing this, but the window has moved to late July/early August, which is traditionally pretty gnarly.  Maybe they will repeat what we did last year and follow up their brutal week in June with a summer that is much more reasonable.  Granted, what constitutes a "reasonable" summer in  the southeast still sucks sweaty donkey balls compared to a "reasonable" summer in the PNW.

That will be unlivable. Vulnerable people will die, and if there are electrical or water outages, then, well, ...

It feels like our power grid as a whole country has been under strain.  I don't really remember losing power during a heatwave as a kid, but Georgia has seen a ton of growth since then.  I think they have been building a lot of solar plants to augment their traditional nuke and hydro power sources, but this this heat wave (and the accompanying heat indices) will be pushing things to the limit.

Currently 60 over here and mostly cloudy. Oh and a wet deck so it must have rained at some point last night. Heading back to the even crappier weather today, hopefully it will be dry enough so I can mow.

I made a new friend yesterday as well.    Glad I was in my car for the meet and greet though!     What is a little concerning is that he or she was not skittish at all.  I actually turned the car around and followed along and the bear did not seem to care that I was a few feet away.   Normally when I have seen bears on our road while driving... they jump into the woods faster than I can even get my phone ready to take a pic.

Pretty cool. 
 

The deer was unafraid of me. It stood in that same spot and stared me down as I walked past.
