Summer Weather Update

It's been relatively dry since that roughly-three-week stretch beginning in mid-to-late June. The grass started turning brown a couple of days ago, but then we got two tenths of an inch of rain - just enough to turn it green for a few more days. We've been flirting with 30 degrees (Celsius) for a couple of weeks, but we haven't had any. We have had three or four days that were 29.5 degrees, but, for the most part, it has been wonderfully mild. It was downright cool during the latter half of June and early July. I'm not sure that we had one day with a high temperature above 75 degrees Fahrenheit during that three-or-four-week stretch. At least a week of days had high temperatures in the 60s. It was wonderful.

Summer Weather Update

Through A.D. 2009 July 06:

Days at or above 30º Celsius (86º Fahrenheit):
03

There were two days above 30º Celsius in April. There were none in May. There was one in June. It has been a remarkably cool start to the summer, despite the extremely warm weeks in April. Unlike some in this area, I've loved it. The past couple of weeks have been absolutely wonderful. We've had more than ten days of high temperatures between 68º F. and 72º F.
