Mike Calloway is the 33/40 WeatherWatcher for Weaver, in Calhoun County. Mike enjoys digging into weather records and trends. He ofers these interesting facts about Birmingham Airport so far this August:
Averages for August through yesterday (Tuesday) at Birmingham Airport:
Average high: 99.9
Average low: 76.1
Average daily: 88.0
The 88.0 degree average is 3.2 degrees warmer then the warmest average for a month. (the old record was 84.8 set in August 1995) The reason I say was, is, this month is a certainty to become the all time warmest month after it’s all said and done.
We’ve reached at least 95 20 out of the first 21 days of the month. 17 days we’ve reached at least 97, 12 days and counting about reaching 100.
