3. 96 in Phoenix today, tied a record

set in 1937. I wonder what was going on in the 1930's when most of our records were set?

5. 80 or so just down the hill from Yosemite (CA)

Just a skosh above normal. Even had a nice little shower last night (we need rain bad).

9. On average, the highest temperatures of the year are in September and October

Feb. and March are usually cool and rainy
April is beautiful, cool and sunny
May and June are cool and overcast (the "June Gloom")
July and August are hot and humid
September and October are hot and dry
November and December it turns a lot cooler, but usually not a whole lot of rain

Those are the typical seasons here; there is some variation. We actually had a very light, thin, sparse rain yesterday from a tropical low.

8. Not in my part of the desert SW

Here in Albuquerque its been in the 70s, but last week we were in the 40/50s. Next week we're supposed to drop back down to 50s/60s.

It seems to me whenever the rest of the nation is hot, were cold and vice versa.
