	July Temperature Records

Posted by: ClimateChange, 12:04 AM GMT on July 25, 2012

July has been a very hot month for much of the Midwest. Below is a look at some of the numbers for various locales in northern Ohio and northwest Pennsylvania.

The figure below for July 2012 represents the projected final value for the monthly mean temperature. In computing the projection, I used the month-to-date temperature with the Best Forecast values for the various airport sites through the 31st. For the sake of comparison, I've included the month-to-date temperature in parentheses. I've also emboldened the values for July 2011 and July 2012, to give a better idea at how hot these last two Julys have really been!

Cleveland (KCLE)

1. 79.1 1955
2. 78.2 2012 (78.6)
3. 77.6 2011
3. 77.6 1949
5. 76.8 1921

Akron/Canton (KCAK)

1. 78.0 1931
2. 77.8 1921
3. 77.5 2012 (78.1)
3. 77.5 1916
5. 77.2 1887
6. 76.8 2011

Toledo (KTOL)

1. 79.0 1921
2. 78.8 2011
3. 78.6 1916
4. 78.3 1955
5. 78.2 2012 (78.7)

Mansfield (KMFD)

1. 77.0 2012 (77.3)
1. 77.0 1934
3. 76.8 1921
4. 76.7 1955
5. 76.5 2011

As you can see above, the projected value for 2012 is the second highest of record at CLE, third highest of record at CAK, fifth highest of record at TOL, and highest of record at MFD. July 2011 was also among the five warmest of record for all of those sites.
