From the National Weather Service in Melbourne FL about an hour ago ... That 115Β°F (46Β°C) on the #SpaceCoast is right about where we live. Note the 122Β°F (50Β° C) near West Palm Beach.
@MLClark Some local flavor for you ... A destroyed Vehicle Assembly Building is off-frame to the left. I've told management, if you ever paint over the Face Melter 9000, I'm going elsewhere. π
NWS Melbourne just posted this. The heat advisory extends at least through Tuesday.
