Exactly. That's what matters. 2-2.5 months to cold and the death of greenery.

...NEW RECORD HIGH WIND GUSTS IN SOUTHWEST MONTANA...

THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THAT SWEPT THROUGH SOUTHWESTERN MONTANA ON
AUGUST 1 2013 ESTABLISHED NEW HIGH GUST RECORDS IN MADISON AND
BEAVERHEAD COUNTIES. IN MADISON COUNTY, THUNDERSTORM WIND GUSTS TO
90 MPH OCCURRED AT THE TWIN BRIDGES AIRPORT. THIS EXCEEDED THE
PREVIOUS HIGH GUST OF 86 MPH AT THE BURNT CREEK RAWS SOUTH OF
CAMERON ON FEBRUARY 22 2012. IN BEAVERHEAD COUNTY, GUSTS REACHED 104
MPH AT A HOME WEATHER STATION NEAR POLARIS. THIS EXCEEDED THE
PREVIOUS EXTREME GUST IN THE COUNTY OF 86 MPH AT DILLON ON JUNE 3
1959.

THE 104 MPH GUST AT POLARIS IS THE HIGHEST MEASURED GUST OF RECORD
IN AUGUST IN MONTANA. THE PREVIOUSLY RECORDS WERE 100 MPH AT JOPLIN
ON AUGUST 24 1953 AND IN NORTHERN BLAINE COUNTY ON AUGUST 10 1957.
THERE ARE HIGHER ESTIMATED GUSTS FOR AUGUST, BUT NO HIGHER MEASURED
GUSTS. THE HIGHEST MEASURED GUST IN MONTANA FROM A SUMMER
THUNDERSTORM IS 140 MPH AT THE OLD HAVRE RADAR STATION IN JULY 1957.

Just stumbled upon this:

815 AM EDT THU AUG 01 2013

...RECORD JULY RAINFALL IN MIAMI BEACH...

THE TOTAL RAINFALL FOR THE MONTH OF JULY IN THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH
WAS 18.47 INCHES. THIS ESTABLISHES A NEW RECORD FOR THE WETTEST JULY
IN THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH. THE PREVIOUS RECORD-WETTEST JULY WAS IN
2000 WHEN 13.16 INCHES OF RAIN WAS RECORDED.

I thought this record event from July was interesting too:

And how many mm is that?

Ugh why can't the world do the same standard of everything! Grr

If there's 2.54cm to every inch, then that means there's 25.4mm for every inch.
