S​ummer 2024 is likely to be one of the hottest on record in the United States, according to an updated outlook released Friday by The Weather Company and Atmospheric G2.

The heat will be widespread. Above-average temperatures are expected from the Southwest and Rockies to the East Coast, with parts of the Midwest, Plains, northern New England and the Southwest being the most above average.

"We've run out of superlatives to describe what we expect as an historic summer." - Todd Crawford, Vice President of Meteorology, Atmospheric G2 The lone exception may be the West Coast, from western Washington to Southern California. Temperatures there could be pretty typical for summer as a whole, running slightly above or below average.

Two recent summers were among the nation's hottest. In case you're curious, 1936 and 2021 are tied as the hottest summers in U.S. records...🙄🙄🙄 1936....

Everywhere or just the areas where the atmosphere is being chemically stimulated?

A lot of us are expecting a hot summer this year, as long as there is affordable electricity it doesn’t affect the indoors.

“Temperatures [on the West Coast] could be pretty typical for summer as a whole, running slightly above or below average.”

In other words, the average temperature on the West Coast will average out to the average.

Note that this is a prediction and has not happened. If it does not happen they’ll get a retraction right out.

Everything, even stuff not related to the weather, is a man-made crisis on Weather.com.

Funny, I thought predictions were the domain of The National Inquirer, not a hard news organization.

So why is this even in the “news”? Geez louise. Most people will just read the headline and start crying that Greta “pay attention to me” Thurnberg or whatever was right.

[VTenigma]

It’s been 68f here for the high the past few days.

[struggle]

It has rarely broke 90 here in the Carolinas so

Just like elections depend on who’s doing the counting, “hottest on record’ depends on who’s doing the measurements.

[FamiliarFace]

It also might depend on who is altering the record books because they think the data wasn’t recorded “correctly”.
