Seems like the SPC/FWD/Euro must have caved towards the NAM and HRRR. The updated Day 2 Outlook moves the threat further east and the discussion is more in line with a severe MCS developing and propagating ESE.

July average (not the high, the AVERAGE): 91.4
August Average: 93.4
1.5" of rain for July, August and September
71 days over 100F.
Summer high of 110.
June thru August Average High: 101.2 (2nd only to 1980)
June thru August Average Low: 79.8 (1st)
The only year to have two streaks of consecutive days over 100 in the top 10 of all time.
I've mentioned this before and if I can find it I'll post it, I have a picture of a telephone pole shadow with dozens of birds lined up in it with their beaks open trying to keep cool. Also have video of dust devils. That year was awful.

The good news is that 2011 was an anomaly. There are a few years comparable to 2011 (like 1980), but we have to remember that those years are extremes. That does not mean that we will not have another 2011 this year. We certainly could, but let's also remember that there are a lot of other years that started off rather dry and became wet later. Every year is different, and while there are certain patterns that can lead to certain conditions, they do not always yield the same results. If that were the case, there would never be any surprises during hurricane season.
