If youâve gotten the feeling that this has been an awful summer weather-wise, youâre not just a cranky New Englander â and youâre not imagining things. The National Weather Service says weâve had more blazing hot days and more gray, rainy days than we should.
âJune was much warmer than normal. The average temperature was 6.3 degrees above normal,â said Alan Dunham, with the National Weather Service. âJune was also dryer than normal. And then we switched over to July and pretty much flipped everything on its head. Right now, July has averaged 2.6 degrees below normal, and the rainfall is much above normal.â
