The month of July ended up being slightly cooler than normal, but that doesn’t mean we’re in for a cooler August. State Climatologist Harry Hillaker says temperatures will be a few degrees below normal in the first week of August; maybe getting up to normal the second week.He expects the dry pattern to continue for another two weeks. He says there’s no real strong tendency in the forecasts either way, but he wouldn’t be surprised if August ends up a little bit drier and a little bit hotter than normal. Hillaker says July was slightly drier than normal and we could use some extra rain in August to catch up.
