Mid-July Highs below 75
Posted: 17 Jul 2025 05:30 AM
Forecast high temperatures for this fine Thursday are expected to struggle in the lower 70s for most of the state. So it is a good time to check in on how frequently this occurs. The featured map uses long term climate sites in the state and plots the percentage of years that have at least one day between 10 and 20 July with a high temperature below 75°F. Most of these stations have a period of record lasting at least 70 years. The map shows an intuitive north to south pattern with higher frequencies found over the north. An overall average is about 25%, so about once every four years this situation happens at least once for the year over this specific period of days.
