For example, the first weekend in June saw 150 record highs in the Midwest, but a cold front moved through and dropped temperatures to near-record lows immediately afterward. Coastal areas of South Carolina and Georgia were praying for a cool-down last week, after recording triple-digit temperatures. Meanwhile, the Northeast was enjoying above-normal temperatures before a chill caused frost warnings and advisories to be issued in the region. In the West, portions of Colorado witnessed a 30-degree temperature drop in one day.
Such temperature variations tend to drive people crazy — especially those in the HVACR trade, who depend on “predictable” weather.
