So far, this summer hasn't been overbearing when it comes to heat. This is especially true when compared to a stretch of early-July days in 1936 when the temps varied between high 90s and low 100s with one day peaking at 106 degrees.
Flash-forward to 2025 and there's plenty going on in the outdoors. Flowers are still in bloom, berries are beginning to ripen, and mushrooms are showing up thanks to recent rainfall.
