Dallas Texas. First time in 52 years the max temp stayed in the 70s for consecutive days in July.

Record July Cold Today & Saturday « CBS Dallas / Fort Worth

The more I look the more impressive stats I find

SeaTac's warmest month since 1948 is August 1967, averaging 71.1°F (83.7/58.5°F), so cooler than London 2006. After that, July 2009, at 69.4°F (81.0/57.9°F).

We stayed in the 70's yesterday and should do so again today, especially with all this rain we're getting (yes!)

Now, this is the way summer should be - rainy and cool.

A supercell just formed over central France. Let's see if we get storms tonight.

Great graph! I thought your highest would be warmer. Do you have a similar one for Great Plains locations like Omaha?

Thanks! That make's London 2006 average that much more impressive since Seattle is several degrees further south.


Finally some summer weather approaching Chicago

Your dew point maxed out at 65°F and only 61°F in the afternoon

Looks like a summer day in Massachusetts rather than Florida.

Seattle gets cooler lows due to the Pacific Ocean influence so London's hot weather will register as hotter.

Yeah, it was more just the notation of a hot sunny day, followed by clouds rolling over for a late afternoon/early evening storm even though it was a bit of a damp squid.

Still feels more humid than it normally is here, though

Higher than 25C? I have to be honest I rarely see that in the Northeast U.S and I know its hard to even get 20C come north. Heat Waves usually happen when mid levels are 20C or above.

Here's Omaha from this awesome site. Just click on location and click real time. The dot represents the most recent balloon launch. Omaha this morning was 14C but the other day was 8C which wasn't extreme but well below normal.

So looks like Omaha has never been below zero at that level from June to August. Considered extreme the rest of months except Dec-Jan-Feb when it's pretty much normal.

Yea, I was nitpicking and knew what you meant. Just a reminder that Florida (and often common in much of the southern and near southern US) levels of heat and humidity are a different experience from that.
