Cool June Begins To Heat Up

June 2013 temperatures in the Quad Cities are still running 2.7° below average with 10 of the first 16 days of the month experiencing below average temperatures.

That chill should not come as a surprise since we've had three days with high temperatures in the 60s and seven days with highs in the 70s.  Of the remaining six days, five were in the 80s and one (June 12th) was in the 90s, at 92°.

Monday is going to be a very warm one with highs well into the 80s before we cool off to around 80° Tuesday and Wednesday.  If you like warm to hot weather, you'll love the forecast for Thursday through the weekend.  Highs will be in the 85°-90° range.

Here is the temperature forecast from NOAA's Climate Prediction Center.  It shows that it will be warmer than average for the eastern half of the country from June 22-26, 2013.

Have a great week!
