Time Yet for 100+

Posted: 13 Aug 2024 05:46 AM

Our current stretch of cool August weather is working on day eight of below average daily high temperatures. The month of September rapidly approaches, so the window of time for the worst of what summer can potentially offer is closing. The featured chart illustrates this by plotting the latest date during the calendar year for a given high temperature threshold. By about the second week of September, temperatures over 100 degrees are outside of climatology and by the second week of October, values over 90 are as well. The forecast continues not to advertise much in the way of significant heat.
