I'm not suspicious about anything, it's just an unusual pattern I'm seeing.

I would say today has been incredibly hot. In my first two days back in IVC, I'm glad there were a lot of cooling areas open since the College Center and the Library are always packed. Last year nor the year before they never had that. Tempratures have reached 115 + yesterday and today. Today would be one of the worst, because there have been a lot of ambulances everywhere around campus. We never had an excessive heat warning this summer at all until now.

My Trig class is actually a mix of Trig/PreCal.. So I feel your pain.. lol I'm planning on doing AP Calculus next year mainly because I don't want to do it in College and it's a chance at scholarships for the colleges I'm looking at getting into such as Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Oklahoma University and UCLA.. and a few more for meteorology.

My goodness!  How can people live in those kind of temperatures?

Hi everyone.. I really apologize for not being on last night at all cuz I went to bed at 7:30 and woke up at 5 AM and still tired

My first day was awesome socially and terrible procedure-wise. Lightning struck the school and caused power to blink and the fire alarms were in chance of going off as they reconnected the system, the lightning struck the electricity at the portables. Ironically I was almost struck by lightning three years ago from yesterday but was in an outside environment

Interesting day! I remember my close encounters with lightning. Good times

Lightning is one of the most beautiful phenomena I have ever seen.  I love watching it, but it is also very dangerous (duh? ).  Last Friday, a 12-year-old boy was struck by lightning in my area.  It's the classing "hear a boom and saw a big flash of light."  Several people witnessed the incident.  It happened 5 minutes AFTER school was let out.  Okay, if there is thunderstorms in the area, wouldn't you keep the students inside until it is safe to leave?

Anyway, he was flown to a burn unit and is still in critical condition.  He cannot communicate, but has opened his eyes.

Zach, sometimes too much sleep can make someone tired.  Happens to me all of the time.  I wish I could get 10 hours of sleep   I am lucky if I get 6.

Yeah I agree. I almost got struck by lightning last month when I was filming and photographing the severe storms in my area. One of the lightning strikes apparently struck a tree 2 blocks away from my house and during that time, my entire porch shook and I almost lost my balance as a result of this. Mother nature is beautiful but this shows as a warning that she has her risks too.

Easy. You have to be a veteran of the valley to withstand these temperatures. I can go on a day with temps in the 100's but not the 110's. I've been living here for 3 years, and I still can't stand the 110's.

I can barely stand 95­° Actually, Forbes Magazine said that based on trends that Louisville was the hottest city in the US this summer (at least compared to average)

I have a very high heat tolerance. 110-115 I can stand, but higher then that WITH humidity... let's say it's a day in the air conditioning

I just got promoted from "Newbie" to "Junior," and decided to take advantage of this occasion by doing the happy dance.        

We now return you to regularly scheduled programming. 

That happened to me around my 50th post.
