Cool August Likely To Continue

It hit 87° in the Quad Cities Wednesday and that marked the warmest day this August.  However, for the month, temperatures for the first seven days are running 2.9° below average.

It looks like that trend will continue.  High temperatures over the next seven days will generally be in the upper-70s to low-80s.  The average highs during this period are around 84° and 85°.

Here is the temperature forecast from NOAA's Climate Prediction Center for August 15th-21st and much of Midwest, Great Lakes, the Ohio Valley, and the mid-Atlantic will likely see below average temperatures.

The fall temperature preview continues!
