The heat wave has moved out of here, too, and we got a bit of rain this evening when it dropped to 66 degrees! This is what it is currently:

Observed at: Salt Lake City, Utah
Elevation: 4226 ft / 1288 m

68 °F / 20 °C
Mostly Cloudy
Humidity: 73%
Dew Point: 59 °F / 15 °C
Wind: 8 mph / 13 km/h from the SW
Pressure: 29.87 in / 1011 hPa
Visibility: 10.0 miles / 16.1 kilometers
UV: 0 out of 16
Clouds: Few 7500 ft / 2286 m
Scattered Clouds 11000 ft / 3352 m
Mostly Cloudy 15000 ft / 4572 m
(Above Ground Level)

That 66 degrees earlier today was the coolest it's been at any point in precisely 14 days, and we got .11 of an inch of precipitation; certainly not a lot, but it felt nice (not to mention it was the first measurable precipitation in 25 days, at least at the airport; my house got a thunderstorm a couple days ago). But it felt nice to say the least, and there's more expected tonight.

I remember back in 1997, temperatures at my hometown dropped to 63*F that summer during a rainy event.

You have a PUMPKIN avatar already??? That's just about as bad as starting to see the Halloween candy out! :eek: :lol:

You guys certainly went from one extreme with that humidity to this. I'm glad you're still getting rain though!

Si......I mean, think about it, harvest time is only 4 weeks away :eek: :lol: Our veggie garden this year has been UNBELIEVEABLE, truly unreal....I've NEVER seen things grow like they have this year, the heat coupled with the "killer" dewpoints (60-75°) and RH values in the 70-80% range, has created PRIMO conditions.
