Jonger Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Flint managed a +2.5 departure for July. That's quite odd.... Lansing was +0.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Not bad at all. Looks like MI was the mildest with WI coming in 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brewers Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 MKE finished the month +0.3 and with 1.55" of precipitation. The 1.55" of precipitation ties for 28th driest July on record. Down here I ended up with 3.69" of rain for the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 So the stats are in for July, and once again, DTW comes in with a colder than normal high but warmer than normal low. JULY 2013:TEMP: 74.0F....+0.4F Avg High: 82.5F....-0.9F Avg Low: 65.6F....+1.7F JUNE 2013: TEMP: 69.7F....+0.2F Avg High: 78.5F...-0.8F Avg Low: 60.8F...+1.3F So the first two months of met summer are averaging approximately +0.3F...a product of the average high temp being 0.9F BELOW normal but the average low temp being 1.5F ABOVE normal. Also...DTW finishes July with 4.14" of rain, so met summer through July 31st is at 10.15". However, mby owned DTW in rainfall in July picking up 7.34" which brings my met summer total to 13.68" through July 31st! A side note...the local Wyandotte wunderground.com weather station recorded 8.47" of rainfall in July! Crazy to think that DTW just down the road to the west had half that.

Thought for sure it would be below normal, especially after looking at the map above Chicago wx posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought for sure it would be below normal, especially after looking at the map above Chicago wx posted. The heatwave mid month was too much to overcome. We had +12, +15, +15 and +15 during that 4 day stretch.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 According to Chad Evans, the 8 day streak of sub 80 degree highs in Lafayette is the longest such streak in July since... wait for it 1869! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to look up the Michigan sites, we have strung quite a few together out my way.... And nothing is concrete in the next 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Yeah, I didn't think so. After looking it up, it appears that there were six days. I sent an e-mail to about getting it corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
