Records Highs Set
June 2, 2011
Temperatures topped the 100 degree mark in many locations across the North Escambia area on Wednesday. A record high of 101 degrees was set at Pensacola today, breaking the old record of 100 set in 1953. Mobile’s old record of 98 set in 1998 was broken with an afternoon high also at 101.
The unofficial, old fashioned but almost-accurate mercury thermometer at NorthEscambia.com reached 103 in the shade Wednesday afternoon. (Pictured above.)

I saw people and pets wading in the middle of Escambia river/creek?, at Molino fairgrounds yesterday. Shallow water drive!
It was registering 105.5 at my house at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday!!!!!
I don’t know… the weather channel website said the high for Wednesday was 95 and it was 103… if they are saying 98 then we may be in trouble!
It was so hot the chickens were laying hard boiled eggs !
