Pacific NW Summer 2013

This summer didn't stand out for me. Perhaps it was slightly warmer than normal, but there were fewer extremes than normal and no 100's at all. Three of the last 4 years have not seen 100 degrees broken in Portland.

July and August were, as usual, bone-dry, but the closing days of September brought record-breaking rain to the state, largely as a result of a former typhoon in Asia.
