September has arrived and meteorological summer (June, July, and August) are now thankfully in the rear-view mirror.
Eddie Vedder wrote Rearviewmirror about leaving his stepfather, so it's about more serious things, but the song seems appropriate today. Turn it up to 11.
Summer 2023 comes in as the 8th warmest in Salt Lake City with an average temperature of 78.6.

If it didn't seem very hot, that's a case of recency bias as this summer was 2.3°F cooler than 2001 and 2.9°F cooler than 2022.
It was also a fairly wet summer with a total of 3.2" of precipitation, rating 36th out of 150 summers with records. Most of that (2.75") fell in August, which rated as the 5th wettest on record and the wettest since 1968 (1983 was close with 2.64".

There was one other record set this summer...most pageviews of this blog. Sadly, that's not due to human traffic, but bot traffic from Singapore. It appears to have ended after a couple of weeks.
