Right now in Nevada, there is a huge cloud of smoke overcasted throughout the whole valley due to a fire that was ignited on Mount Charelston (30-1hr away from Las Vegas) from ONE bolt of lightning striking a tree. The fire is still in effect since I think around July first.
There have been many winds,
and so bright outside I can not even open my eyes all the way anymore, my eyes just might be becoming more sensitive, but for some reason I think the sun is getting hotter, bigger, and brighter because of me not being able to open my eyes fully anymore outside. I have lived here my whole life almost so I think I know somewhat what the normal weather conditions are. I am not sure if I am the only one that notices this and there is a high chance I might be wrong but I think its something to be looked into.
It is said in astronomy that the sun will eventually become a black dwarf which is a really cold asteroid like rock, but before it becomes that it will digress into many other stages and some of those stages require the sun to have explosions within the sun that will cause heat transfer to the surrounding environment.

Re: Nevada
Yes, it seems that the sun is "hotter" but that is only close to the surface of the earth and might be due to conduction of comet dust particles.
The sun isn't going to become a black dwarf because it is an electrical phenomenon. It might "go out" one day if someone turns off the current, though...

In NYC, or Central Park it is in the high 90's for 5 days or so. Very lethargic, have to stay indoors, although people are running to the beaches. I don't think I can go in that water that's just minutes from the Verrazano Bridge. I mean why bother eating good if I'm gonna douse myself in sewage and waste , although the beaches have been heralded as CLEAN...er. I don't think so. I wonder just what that means and how the PTB come by that announcement. I've been hosing down, and I'm grateful for that. Could be way worse. Winds are just around the corner probably, like Sandy of last year. Was it 9 months ago? Pretty stellar.

After nearly 2 weeks of oppressive heat and humidity (temperature often in the upper 90's)...relief finally came, here in northern NJ. But something else unusual is going on.
My town is dotted with tall trees. And lately, many branches (huge ones) have broken off from what are otherwise healthy looking trees. And this in the absence of serious wind gusts. My neighbor two doors down had their porch nearly crushed by one massive limb. And recently two more neighbors had huge branches come down on their front lawn. I shudder to think what would've happened if kids were playing outside.
Dead tress I can understand, but these are healthy ones...with no rot. Now I'm wondering if something "electrical" is going on. And I've become very wary of walking underneath any trees at all.

Hail accompanied by high winds here in South Carolina.
Here, in my region (Spain, Salamanca) the weather is similar to Autumn. Incredible. And in other parts of Spain it is too hot. Very strange! I hear that the weather in France is not good at all. So everyone who lives in the country of Liberté, Fraternité and bla bla bla, take care!
Yes Loreta, in my coin (NE of France) it's really hot (one month ago we still had our winter coat !) and for now, the storms seem to turn around us but for the others who are in, it's really big and hard, as I heard.
The worst we had was short sheets of rain ;)

We just had an extreme hailstorm with hail the size of table tennis balls up to tennis ball size 
Sufficient to say that it was american style type of hail (size and damage wise). Several widows arround the house are broken including that of the room I'm sitting in right now. Shattered glass everywhere in my room and in others too. The cars that were outside were damaged including the windows broken and the metal looking like cheese (I somehow saved my new car just a few seconds before it started). Our garden is ruined and the Plexiglas roofs and shutters look like swiss cheese.The hail even damaged the pflaster walls on the house.
We never experienced something like that and for germany to have such a hailstorm is quite not normal I guess. Many houses in my and the cities near by expirienced the same we did...
I've took video and pictures during the hailstorm wich I will upload as soon as I can. Thankfully no body was hurt in my family.

Here in southern BC (until today) has seen a heatwave (high 30's c). We had a couple of days in the prior week at 40c or darned near. The house at night has been oppressive (+/- 92 F). Need rains (no sheets please) to cool things down and add moisture to forest fuels.
