This afternoon (Thursday July 12) I heard a few claps of thunder in the Aves with a very brief shower that didn't quite fully wet the sidewalk. It was about the most exciting thing to happen weatherwise in a while.
The last day with measurable rain at the Salt Lake City International Airport was May 25th, 18 days ago. Hot and dry will be the weather story for the foreseeable future. Nearly all members of the Utah "Snow" ensemble are showing nothing over the next seven days, although there is a member or two that pops up a stray shower here or there (look hard to see if you can find them).
So, maybe we get lucky, but for the most part, as promised a few days ago, June is the new July. At least the humidity is low.
Hotter than you can handle, Jim
ReplyDeleteThat's always been my least favorite part about summer. The heat sucks for sure but the monotony of having weeks of the same weather every day can be brutal.
ReplyDeleteWhat is going on with the air? This can't be normal. I don't remember weeks straight of June not being able to see across the valley
ReplyDeleteI like to call this the "No Hope" period of SLC summer and its a month early, yay...
