Temperatures last week averaged 2.6 degrees above where we should be for this time of the year -- locally, we had a four day stretch of 90 degree weather come to an end with the passage of a cool front on Tuesday. It dragged in marginally cooler air from the west that controlled the weather for Wednesday through Saturday as high temperatures for the last four days of the week held in the upper 80's daily. All in all, the week's weather was docile but rather warm -- typical for the height of summer.
The one thing we're lacking for a bit locally is rainfall. Despite a solid inch to two inches of rain last week, our dry spell continues locally as rainfall rates over the past two months are running anywhere from 25% (western suburbs) to 60% of normal in much of the Delaware Valley. Some parts of the Pinelands are doing ok in the rainfall department as are parts of the Poconos and Catskills up north...however, locally we are running pretty dry and could use a nice widespread rainfall event.
