Summer Recap

Although we are almost a week into fall, I want to briefly look back at this summer.

TEMPERATURES
First of all, temperatures were warmer than normal for most of the state. The same could be said for most of the Deep South and West Coast. However, it was an extremely cool summer for folks in the Midwest, especially in Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota and the Dakotas.



RAINFALL
Although some parts of the Commonwealth experienced wetter than normal conditions, most of central Virginia was below normal for rainfall. It was also dry in South Carolina, Georgia and especially Texas. Most of New England and parts of the Midwest experienced a wet summer.

Showers Linger This Morning

A couple showers are still moving across the area this morning. These showers will quickly dissipate and most of Virginia will be dry by late morning. A stray shower could pop up north of I-64 this afternoon, but the chances are looking very slim.
