This summer warmer than average – so far

Last week saw some strange weather across the Inland Northwest. On July 12, it was 89 degrees at Spokane International Airport. The next day it felt like fall with a high of only 63 degrees and showers. About 0.25 inches of rain fell from that particular storm in Spokane, but nearly an inch of rain fell in Coeur d’Alene. Since that brief cool and wet spell, summer weather has returned to our region. The normal average temperature from June through August is 66.3 degrees. This June was 1.6 degrees warmer than normal, with a reading of 63.2 degrees. So far, July is about 2 degrees above normal.
