Yesterday was the first day of spring—and the temperature hit a record-breaking 86 F. The average high for this time of year is 48.
That’s an astounding in 38-degree difference. And today, the high temps pushed 90.
Interestingly, the average high temperature for us in three months, the first day of summer, is only 84 degrees. That implies that our seasonal temperatures are about three months ahead of schedule.
Now if this difference continues and the high for the first day of summer is also 38 degrees above the average, that would put it at a sweltering 122 degrees.
While I don’t think that will actually happen, I do suspect we are in for a hot summer this year.
