Default August 2008 Weather Data Summary

AUGUST 2008 CLIMATOLOGICAL SUMMARY
August 2008
Black Cat Island Weather Station

-- norms are in parenthesis, and are from Concord NH --


Average temperature: 66.0 F (67.3)
Average Daily Max: 74.7 F (79.8)
Average Daily Min: 58.5 F (54.7)
Heating Degree Days: 63 (39)
Cooling Degree Days: 94 (111)
Highest: 81 F on the 18th
Lowest: 50 F on the 27th

Total Rainfall: 6.60 inches (3.32)
Max Calendar Day Rain: 1.91 inches on the 7th

Wind Speed Average: 8 mph
Dominant Direction: East
Peak Wind Gust: 42 mph from the east on the 6th

Days with Rain: 15
Days with Fog: 15
Days with Thunder: 8

Notes: For the second month in a row, overnight temps were above normal while daytime temps were below normal. This resulted in the month's overall average temperature being only slightly below normal. The most likely cause, for the second month in a row, is the abundance of moisture in the air all month. Cloud cover and fog both help to keep temperatures warm overnight.

The month's precipitation total was the greatest since 7.65 inches fell in October 2006. This brings the year-to-date total to 30.22 inches. Normal total for the entire year is 36.37 inches, which will likely be surpassed before year's end.
