85°F here.



Summer






Dews

High 80s with around 50 dewpoint is probably the nicest weather you could ever ask for

I'll agree that low 80s is better with 50s dews..

Just remembered.. It was snowing in VT and NH 2 days ago. Snow to 80s in 2 days.

Even here, and our sun isn't as strong as yours. It seems like the only time we fail to reach the forecasted high temp is if it's cloudier/wetter than expected, if not we'll match or exceed the forecasted high. Even in the winter.

But I prefer the more conservative forecasts over the more ambitious ones, I'd hate to be disappointed by getting lower temps than I was expecting.

What's funny is sun was high and it was dry and 0 clouds of any kind.

Average high is also 80 now.
Nailed it...

Nailed it right on the head, 2 going on 3 days later than normal now. No shot of 90 till June now. Making a run at top 5 latest 90s at this rate... what did I tell you Alex! I knew what I was saying because of what the models showed. Unless later today the high is revised to 90, we are done for here in raleigh.
