Last summer the overnight lows loved to be in the 70s. Humidity was brutal. . I just went back and looked and, to your point, over half the days in both July and August last year had mins of at least 70 at MDT. This includes a stretch of 12 consecutive such nights in July and 8 in a row in August. Brutal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloudy here too but a little bit of sun is poking through - but I'm at 78 at 11:10. Forecast high is 79 - is it supposed to cool off during the day because if not ... that will be broken by many degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under 16" for the year. Stil, no where near as bad as 2020. We are a good 3-4" ahead of then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Partly sunny and 75 at noon - a mid August day with sun and the temp is going nowhere. Love it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 @Mount Joy Snowman - this is right up your alley! The current forecast high for Death Valley on Sunday is the upper 60s. Riddle me this, has that ever happened before in August? Next 3 days: 116 for today, 104 for tomorrow, and upper 60s for Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoralRed Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Williamsport report matches the rest of you to our south. We are in a state of breezy perfection: blue skies, 75 and dewpoint of 50. I am very happy for all the locals and out of towners here for Little League. This week's weather has been pretty good for them and next week's 70s will be even better. Last night we had rain rain rain once the sun went down. We got about 2.5" instead of predicted half an inch or so. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time SD has been in SPC's Day 3 high risk too (they've only been in a high risk once I read, and that was a 1 day alert). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front seems to come through thankfully Monday late and drives temps back down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoops, thanks for further checking into this. I got my numbers from the basin of Death Valley National Park. Although interestingly, every single number that I saw in the forecast that I got is identical to yours except for Sunday's high. Every one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
