Cool July Outlook, May Be A Joke

By Rod Hill on 2010-06-29


Our stretch of cool weather this week will hit the burner next week.  Forecast charts have been consistent in showing a run of near 90 degree temperatures next week.  It is unclear if the warm up will begin Sunday the 4th or next Monday.  At any rate, all signs point to a normal July, with mostly dry weather and plenty of warm days.  In fact, the first 15 days of the month are likely to average above normal with a stretch of sunny warm to hot days.  If true, this will continue to be a bad year in terms of monthly forecast projections.  Remember, our spring was suppose to be warm and dry and the current July forecast calls for cool and wet.  As of today, I don't think so!  

(The mentioned forecast outlooks are published by the National Weather Service and have a good track record when looked at over the past few years.)
