Weather of Father's Day Past

I hope all the dads out there had a great Father's Day!  Temperatures reached the lower to mid 80s with plenty of sunshine!

I decided to look up some Father's Day weather data from previous years.  In the last 139 years, 28 had temperatures between 90° and 96°; 62 days with 80° to 89°; 44 days with 70° to 79°; 3 days with 60° to 69°; and 2 days with 50° to 59°.

The warmest Father's Day occurred on June 16th, 1918 when the high temperature was 98°!  The coolest high temperature was on June 18th, 1876 with a temperature of 54°.  The coldest Father's Day morning occurred on June 21st, 1991 with a low of 43°.

While we lucked out this year and had no rain, it rained 2.16" on June 18th, 1950, making that year the wettest on record!

Have a great workweek, everyone!
