Summer Statistics

Our local newspaper yesterday highlighted some of the impressive statistics from our summer weather. Here are the highlights:

*2nd: July 2010 was the second hottest month on record only behind August 1900.

*94.8: The average high temperature for July. The highest on record for any month.

*100+: We had temperatures 100 degrees or higher for 7 days in July. More days than any other month on record. We have hit 100 degrees or higher 10 days year to date - another record.

*95+: We hit 95 degrees or hotter for 18 days in July - the most for any month on record.

*2.01: The number of inches of rain for June and July combined. The driest June-July on record.

*8: the number of months pregnant I am during this record setting summer!

I think these stats will definitely be recorded in the baby book. Who knows what August has in store for us?

  1. August is the beginning of a new football season where everyone believes their team will be the best. August is the month when all schol children start back to school. August is the last month for a family vacation. And this August should be the month when the newest addition will be added to the family. We are all anticipating the phone call from A with the good news.
