How was your August weather?
Should be the hottest and driest of the summer right? Well ours sure wasnt, plus we got plenty of rain. Pretty cool even up here in the PNW.
Plus somehow I came down with Covid. Got my shots and boosters because job at the time required it, still got Covid. Couple years later I get it again WTHeck? We are seldom out in public but last week we decided to go to the Seattle Aquarium. Place was packed so thats the only thing I can think of of where I could have picked it up. My immune system must suck.

Re: How was your August weather?
LOL, yeah. We have friends and family down your way. Id rather have our cool weather than living that close to the sun like you guys =)
Still would have been nice to have a little extra warmth

Never got any shots. Overall a decent August here IMO and it even came with an excuse to be lazy and lay in bed watching HDTV. ![]() |

Re: How was your August weather?
High 90s here most of the month and no rain in 5 or 6 weeks. Grass is burned up. I may be done with mowing this year though.
Different strains of covid come around every few months. Even though we are vacinated against a strain of covid, we are not against more recent ones. At least they aren't as deadly as the 19 was.

Re: How was your August weather?
It has rained here. Somewhere between 2~3 inches. Any August rain is bonus.
Temps have been normal with several cool days. |

Re: How was your August weather?
Abilene set an all-time high of 133 - apparently we're on the other side of that furnace...

Re: How was your August weather?
Getting in to the 90s here is pretty rare but in the recent past it seems like its been happening more and more, not this summer. In July we had one low 90s day and a few high 80's. I feel like its not summer unless we get a bunch of scorchers for us to gripe about lol.
I know you guys that are always in the 90s and 100s are telling me to pound sand ![]() EDIT Ouch,133!!! Abilene Abilene sweatiest girls Ive ever seen (lol sorry)

Re: How was your August weather?
It was much hotter than what this shows. The guys in manufactoring went to a 6 to 2:30 day to beat the heat.
It can be 10 degrees hotter the more North you are. And 10 degrees cooler the higher you are. In elevation that is. It snowed this week up at 7000' August 1 Sunny 91° /57° 2 Patchy rain possible 89° /60° 3 Partly cloudy 87° /59° 4 Overcast 86° /55° 5 Sunny 84° /57° 6 Sunny 80° /53° 7 Partly cloudy 87° /55° 8 Partly cloudy 87° /57° 9 Patchy light drizzle 86° /59° 10 Sunny 86° /55° 11 Sunny 84° /51° 12 Sunny 84° /53° 13 Sunny 82° /50° 14 Sunny 86° /51° 15 Sunny 84° /59° 16 Sunny 86° /57° 17 Partly cloudy 84° /57° 18 Sunny 84° /57° 19 Sunny 82° /53° 20 Sunny 80° /51° 21 Sunny 84° /53° 22 Patchy rain possible 75° /51° 23 Sunny 71° /46° 24 Sunny 77° /48° 25 Sunny 80° /53° 26 Sunny 84° /53° 27 Sunny 73° /46° 28 Sunny 73° /41° 29 Sunny 84° /48° 30 Sunny 91° /57° 31 Partly cloudy 95° /60°

Re: How was your August weather?
I leave today from Phoenix. Yesterday was about 110. I was old school enough to drive down last Sunday without a AC charge in my Yukon. I learned a lot.

Re: How was your August weather?

Our August weather in the north west half (I currently live in 2 different places) of NM has had a few 100* days but mostly in the low to mid 90’s. This week has been cooler, today it’s only about 80*. All week it’s supposed to be below 90. In all the years I’ve lived in NM it seems the last week or two of August is when the weather slowly starts to change. First a little cooler at night, then into early September when the day time temps start to fade some too. We’ve had the cooler at night already this week and a little of last. All in all it hasn’t been that terribly hot this year compared to other years and we have gotten a very good amount of rain compared to other years as well, that helps the temps.
