Revisiting the First Half of June


The first half of June has been a hot one -- averaging 4.3 degrees above where we "should" be through Wednesday, a monthly average temperature of 74.3 over that time frame to an average of just over 70 degrees in the first half of the month.    We blitzed past the 90 degree mark four times so far, including a scorching 99 on June 9th, preceded the day prior by an equally oppressive 97 on the 8th.  Believe it or not, the first half of the month also featured four days of below average temperatures although those departures were rather modest, unlike the blitzing of heat we dealt with earlier this month.

In terms of precipitation, the first half of the month an inch of rain (not including the rains from Thursday night/early Friday morning), which was about an inch below average for the month's first half.   Thanks to those heavy rains and thunderstorms on Thursday night we are running with a surplus in the rainfall department locally.
