An Above Average Summer? Could’ve Fooled Me

By: Mr. Wilson on September 2, 2008
I don't know about you, but I was pretty surprised to read that Lincoln's summer weather was just a hair above average this year. I would have guessed temps were below average overall. As the article notes, I probably think that because there weren't many "blazin' hot" days, and more importantly, there really weren't any extended series of really hot days. The weekend of the Cornhusker State Games was probably the longest stretch of unpleasant hot weather we saw, and that stretch only lasted a few days. I wonder if perhaps lower average relative humidity levels could have also contributed to the feeling that the summer was cooler. Does anybody know if those averages are tracked, and where they can be found?

the media will do anything to make you believe that global warming is real. when actually we are headed for an ice age.
