9/12 UPDATE -  it is about time to close up shop for another year of the Almanac. I'll keep it open just in case we get that "Indian summer".  WE BETTER NOT!!! We have had enough. Nothing scorching is in the forecast but, at this point, I take nothing for granted.  


9/5/22 UPDATE - this is going to be disappointing in ONE way as we speak. IF the forecast for the next week and the following is correct, we will end up with 49 days over 100. I mean...come on. Can't we get that one more in and round it off to 50?

9/1/22 UPDATE - WOW! It is incredible what lies in front of us for the next week. It is highly likely we are going to get the number of century temps to 45-47.  This is FAR HIGHER than the record set last year. I'll get you some actual average numbers in the weeks to come as we wrap up this extraordinary year

8/24/22 UPDATE - 5 out of the last 7 have hit those tripledee digits since I threw up the hands. We'll test it again today. Maybe one more this month. Then, we shall start cruising it down into fall. Yep, it is time to get excited. As much as I dread the middle of May, I am AMPING up now getting ready for the best season! NOW is the time to MojoUP!!!


8/16/2022 UPDATE -  OK, we have now entered the "screw it" zone! Really hot weather is not my favorite. I spend a bit of May dreading the summer. A funny thing has now happened along with my climate change. I never get used to the heat but, about now, I get a "go for it" attitude. "It's been this hot, let's let her burn and hit a record! Let's surpass other years!"  

We have more hundy days looking at us in the upcoming week.


8/1//2022 UPDATE - the hottest month historically is in the books. Not a lot of 100 degrees in the immediate forecast. Who knows? We could keep it under the 30. The average temperature is a bit cooler than the average of the last 4 summers. I see that as an extremely positive note

7/23/2022 UPDATE - nine straight days at 100 or more....IMPRESSIVE!!! In THEORY, we should get a day or two off pretty soon and ONLY be in upper 90's. There is a decent chance, however, that we could go another 9 days at the century level. To that I would say, "let's just go for it!" What the heck! Let's make it a big and burly summer! 


7/12/2022 UPDATE. - the end of June was a RIPPER.  We got a nice little respite at the beginning of July. Even with the last few days over 100, we are running 5 to 6 degrees cooler this July than the last four summer's average.

6/21/2022  UPDATE - it WAS a hopeful start. We'll toss another triple in today and probably 5-6 more in by the next update

6/1/2022....Well...here we go again - for another year of what has pretty much become an effort of futility. The climate change we have experienced for 6 straight years has DESTROYED the previous model for predictability regarding days at 100 or above in Roseville, CA. All temps are validated by Weather.com. 

We had an extremely enjoyable Memorial Day weekend - in another time, it would be a 10-15 days forecast.  We all know that ship hit the seas 6 years ago.  

This will be going out on a limb - and a bit of wishful thinking. Let's call this year 25-30 again. Wow! Its hard to believe I am HOPING for ONLY 25 days of 100. My personal preference is for 0 to 12 .
