Late June - July 2013 rainfall amounts

A "warming" trend began on Saturday, June 22, 2013. High temps between June 22 and June 26 ranged between 85 - 90, which was not bad. Still haven't installed our two, small window air conditioner units. Cooler weather will move in on June 28 and last for a few days.

* The rain fell from thundershowers, occurring after 6:00 pm and mainly between 8pm and 11pm each day.
