...WARMER AND WETTER THAN NORMAL JUNE...
JUNE 2024 WILL BE REMEMBERED FOR ONE OF THE EARLIEST LONG DURATION
HEATAVES ON RECORD. FROM JUNE 16TH TO 22ND, 7 DAYS WITH HIGHS 90+
DEGREES WERE RECORDED, WHICH TIED FOR THE 2ND LONGEST JUNE STRETCH
OF 90+ DEGREE DAYS IN SOUTH BEND. NOT ONLY WERE THE HIGH
TEMPERATURES IMPRESSIVE, BUT THE LOW TEMPERATURES WERE TRULY
UNPRECEDENTED; THERE WERE 3 NIGHTS OF RECORD BREAKING WARM LOW
TEMPERATURES DURING THE HEATWAVE. JUNE 18TH, 19TH, AND 22ND ALL HAD
RECORD WARM LOWS WHICH TIED OR BROKE OLD RECORDS. OVERALL, JUNE 2024
FINISHED WITH AN AVERAGE TEMPERATURE OF 72.4 DEGREES, WHICH IS 3.6
DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL. THIS WAS THE 10TH WARMEST JUNE ON RECORD AND
THE WARMEST JUNE SINCE 2021.
WITH A HOT AND DRY STRETCH OF DAYS MID-MONTH, THIS LED TO FLASH
DROUGHT CONCERNS DEVELOPING. SOUTH BEND WAS NEVER OFFICIALLY IN A
DROUGHT IN JUNE 2024, THANKS TO DAILY POP-UP SHOWERS AND STORMS
DURING THE MIDDLE TO END OF THE MONTH. THERE WERE 2 DAYS WITH
RAINFALL TOTALS OVER AN INCH THIS MONTH: 1.15" (JUNE 23RD) AND 1.06"
(JUNE 25TH). ULTIMATELY, SOUTH BEND ENDED THE MONTH WITH 4.87" OF
RAIN, WHICH IS 0.83" ABOVE NORMAL. THIS WAS THE WETTEST JUNE SINCE
2021 AND THE 33RD WETTEST JUNE OVERALL.
