OMG it is so hot I can’t stand it. Really. If this continues, I’m going to have to move somewhere cooler. <\/p>\n

Monongalia County has broken or tied maximum temperature records for June and July seven times<\/a>. Six of those records were broken in a ten day period. (6\/20\/2012, 6\/29\/2012, 7\/4\/2012, 7\/6\/2012, 7\/7\/2012, 7\/8\/2012, 7\/9\/2012)<\/p>\n

We may have broken that streak today, with a high of only<\/em> 90F. Which is still unpleasantly hot. (Average historical temperatures should be in the low to mid 80s.)<\/p>\n

That’s right, people haven’t had power while temperatures have hit record highs.<\/p>\n

I know full well that the plural of anecdote is not data, but this weather is abnormal, and I really don’t want this to become the new normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
