August Weather
Continuing in August where we left off in July, temperatures were two degrees warmer than the average high and five degrees warmer than the average low. According to weather historian, Chris Burt, at least 15 cities in the Western U.S. had their hottest summer on record in 2017 including Fresno where the average mean temperature was 85.3 beating the previous record of 83.5 set in 1981. Air quality throughout the month of August was also unhealthy caused by fires throughout central California. Lets hope for a cooler fall.
