August was warmer than normal for most of the area using the warmest 1991-2020 climate normals. 

 

 

 

As always with CC it was warmer than normal cause of high dews causing overnight lows a degree or two warmer than normal. It did not "feel" like a warmer august in the slightest.

While the minimum departures were a little warmer relative to the maxes, the average highs were still warmer than what is normal even using the warmest 1991-2020 climate normals period. I agree that it felt cooler relative to the heat that we had earlier in the summer. This has largely followed the 2020s summer pattern of major heat early on followed by heavy rains.

The day before it's always hard to predict what areas will get the heaviest storms. But with multiple rounds today, most areas should do well.
