What a difference a year makes!

This summer is shaping up to be like one we have not seen in quite some time. Think back to July, 2008 when we were flirting with many hot records... Here are just a few of the stats from the National Weather Service Climatology Report:

...JULY 2008 BECAME DENVER'S 3RD WARMEST JULY...
...JULY 2008 BECAME DENVER'S 3RD DRIEST JULY...
...JULY 2008 BROKE CONSECUTIVE 90 DEGREE STREAK RECORD...

Yesterday we officially reached 93 degrees at the airport, though many neighborhoods here in town were well into the upper 90s. That said, we were nowhere near record breaking heat. That 93 degree mark is the hottest we have been all year.

The "flow" continues to poor in from the north this summer. After a more traditional mid-summer flow yesterday, we are returning to a cooler/wetter pattern today. Best chance of rain looks to be tomorrow and Monday, but don't count out an afternoon shower today by any means.
