Relatively cool temperatures in the middle of the country and relatively warm ones toward the coasts are anticipated to prevail for most areas through the start of fall, according to an outlook released Thursday by The Weather Company.
This general temperature theme has dominated much of the United States since May.
Record precipitation is one of the main drivers for the cooler temperatures in parts of the West, Plains and Midwest, noted Dr. Todd Crawford, chief meteorologist at The Weather Company.
Soil moisture continues to be well above average for much of the Plains, and in summer that can greatly influence temperatures. When the landscape is wet, some of the solar energy that would heat the land and the air near the ground is instead used for evapo-transpiration, the process that transfers water to the atmosphere and pulls water from vegetation back to the air. As a result, temperatures can be cooler than they would be otherwise.
The upper-level pattern in place recently in the North Atlantic may continue through the rest of the summer. This suggests that the Southeast would be the warmest pocket of the nation relative to the averages for July through September.

HOT in the summer? Say it ain't so! OMG...will we have a cold winter?
ReplyDeleteIt's called SUMMER!!
ReplyDeleteAOC says that she can prove the world is warming up.
ReplyDeleteShe said it goes in cycles and every June thru August it turns very hot, especially in New York, proving the world has Global Warming.
She said these cycles are like when the sun is really bright and hot it burns you and you are very hot and sweaty. This is what the Aliens told her when she was abducted and probed.
Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite reason appeared to be on the internet the easiest thing to
ReplyDeletebe aware of. I say to you, I definitely get irked while people consider worries that they just don't know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined
out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal.
Will probably be back to get more. Thanks
