Update 9/15 - OK....it's over. Finally!!!! It was hotter than last year's BAKE! 2018....I can only beg that you be more kind than the last two years. We'll see you all a bit after Memorial Day 2018
Update 8/31 - well....August WAS kind of nice....until that last week! We closed out the month with 6 days straight in triple digits....after only a couple at the beginning of the month. Man, I am SOOOO hoping we don't catch an indian summer in Sept....ENOUGH!!!
Update 7/22 - well....we all know July is our hottest month. It DELIVERED on that this year. I think overachievement would be a better word. August....can you please be nice
Update 7/15 - another heat wave hit the town last week....the Almanac is TOAST again this year. Maybe global warming is really a thing. This is the third straight year that the Almanac is not even going to be in the ballpark!
Update 7/1 - things have settled down a bit the last few days. But that 6/16 - 6/24 got to everyone! 8 days used up toward the prediction in ONE heat wave.
Update 6/15 - it's been all good so far.....but we have a heat wave acomin'. This could be brutal
You know the drill - we look at the Memorial Day Weekend weather as our guide
As usual - we will use the reporting by Weather.com as our verification tool.
This year - it was a little trickier....and a bit disappointing to people like me that hate the hot weather.
Yep - I said HATE! Why? 1) I don't like to be hot 2) Everything is more expensive when it's hot.
A bit of a mixed bag - we had that 100 degree day slip in a bit early this year which is of concern. Based purely on Memorial Day weekend, we could be doing less that 10 days of 100 or more. But...I just can't buy it based on last year.
For that reason - we will be looking at 11-15 days at 100 degrees or more.
