1. You can't necessarily blame high temperatures on climate change
I'm not denying there is a climate shift going on, but every time some strange weather occurs people instantly blame it on global warming and its not always the case.

2. It's the culmination of these events, not the anomaly itself

3. Park Rapids was rather wet too.
It felt like we were breathing water all day long. I hate it!!!

4. That is incredible. OMG.
It's been awful here too, but thankfully, not QUITE that drastic. When you step out into high dew points like that it is hard to breathe and the sweat breaks out instantly, and of course, the sweat can do nothing to cool you because the air is too wet for it to evaporate.

I despise humidity! I do not tolerate it well. Thank God for A/C. The good news is that it is supposed to cool down a bit over the next few days.
