The warmest min that month was 93F and they had 4 straight lows of 85F during that 130-134F stretch. That's like 45-50F ranges. Nowadays during record heat the mins are usually 95-100F. So I'd argue that these recent 130F readings are their warmest temps ever. It probably gets a hair warmer somewhere in Badwater Basin though.

CoastalWx Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 25 minutes ago, powderfreak said: Haha you guys do ask for copious rain every summer. Been several summers in a row where it seems the overall tenor of the discussion is "bring rain...please more rain...maybe we have a shot at some downpours coming up." Or the "any rain this summer has been convective, it doesn't even get to soak in. Hit or miss rain sucks." Mother Nature loves her averages, the water was bound to come. Memories of those 10-15" water months that seemed to happen from time to time in New England from like 2000 through 2014 occasionally for different areas. Another dry day up here of course. Sunday Farmers Market had hundreds of people it seemed and the Rec Path out front seemed like I-93 in Mass with bikes. Folks seem to enjoy the dry when on vaca. We’ve had a lot of dry summers locally. So the rain is appreciated, but boy it’s come all at once it seems. Let’s spread the love haha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoth Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Thank God this batch of rain is staying north. I spent my whole Friday dealing with leaks and basement flooding from Elsa all over our portfolio. Don't need any more of that, thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a more steady rain it’s very close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
