Yore is official.. everywhere .. for everyone. Iron clad 

 

4th warmest of 23 here, about 1.5 degrees behind 1999 and slightly less warm than 2001 and 2005.  The last 6 days of August averaged 64/45 and kept this summer out of the #2 slot.

The days of mets predicting 2-4 at 11 and waking up to 18+ are over, kind of miss those days, there was always hope.

Yeah we have had some recent good busts. March 13 was pretty awesome for inside 128. Some even 24 hrs out were going washed away. Mid level magic was another one in Feb 2015.

Up here March 19-20, 2014 was forecast for 3-5 and we got 13.3" before it changed to rain.  Farmington had less rain and recorded 16.9".  The Jan 2015 blizzard was forecast for 8-12 in our area and we got 20", but we stayed an extra day with the grandkids in SNJ (where the 12-16 forecast verified at 1.5) so to avoid driving thru the storm.
