I've seen some e-mails from friends at the University of Oklahoma describing the "nuclear summer" they have been having there.
The time series below, which covers the last 2 weeks, makes me sweat just looking at it.
As I write this, the temperature in Norman is 104F, but at least the dewpoint is only 63!
There is a very strong ridge developing again over the central U.S., by tomorrow it has one of the largest areas within the 5940 m (500-mb height) contour that I have seen. Looks like it brings a nice influx of Gulf moisture into the Four Corners region over the next few days. I am hoping for some rain and thunder.
