Damn! It's Hot Out!!!

How many days like that do you ballpark get per summer?

I pulled-up the weather history for last summer on Weather Underground. The nearest main weather station is at the Portsmouth NH/Pease airport, a few minutes south of us. Here are the 90+ degree days and consecutive hot days for last summer, both in Portsmouth and York (near our house):



So for last summer, the number of 90+ degree days was 17 at the airport, and 15 near my house. If you went right to the coast, it would be much less. And then inland, like Concord NH (near sadchild), it would be a lot more.

There's this misconception that it never gets that hot up here. But the high temps are similar to the rest of the east. It's just that it usually gets cooler at night, because of lower humidity.

Ok, I'm not sure how to get that cool stat sheet you posted but I was able to look at June 2025 for North Lauderdale and we had 24 days of 90 degrees or over.

It involves typing letters and numbers into a blank document.

That sounds about right. I bet if we looked at daily low temps, it would be much more dramatic.

And here ya go. Much more different (2025 data). BTW, I tried North Lauderdale, but it gave me Ft. Lauderdale Executive Airport.



In the middle of the summer (July), the coolest night in FTL is similar to the hottest night in Port. And in the spring (April), there's just no comparison. It's like a whole different climate!
