After this weekend, summer will be gone for another year and there wasn’t much to brag about weather-wise.
In a look back at the summer months, 660News Meteorologist David Spence says it was cooler this year with temperatures averaging half-a-degree below normal.
But when it comes to the rain Spence says the numbers are misleading.
For June and July Calgary’s rainfall was below average and it wasn’t until August that we went above normal levels with 86.6mm of rain. The precipitation was so evenly distributed it seemed like it was raining all the time.
For fall, Mother Nature isn’t going to help us out.
Long range forecasts show that the unsettled and cool weather will continue through the beginning of autumn.
