Weather: Looks like no rain in sight

Posted by Reema Bazzy on Wednesday, September 11, 2013

The first nine days of September weather have ranged fairly wide, according to local weather observer Guy Verhoff.

Our highest temperature during that time was 91 degrees (F) on Monday, September 9 and our lowest temperature was 47 degrees (F) during the overnight of September 6.

Notably, we had very little rain in the first nine days of September.  The first and second days held less than four one-hundredths of an inch of rain.  And no rain has fallen since.

The greatest temperature swing in one day was on Monday, September 9 when the high was 91 degrees and the low was 57 degrees, a difference of 34 degrees in one day.
