July Avg Temp Ranks

Posted: 02 Aug 2023 05:30 AM

Yesterday's Daily Feature highlighted the extraordinary heat that Phoenix, AZ endured for July. Things around Iowa were not all that bad as shown by the featured map today of unofficial IEM estimates for average July temperature rank for this 2023 vs previous Julys back to 1893. Much of the Midwest US is indicated to have had a rather cool July with the extremities of the contiguous US much hotter and plenty of climate districts indicated to have had their hottest July on record. The near term forecast for August continues this general trend with hot weather confined off to our south.
