| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A record-setting ridge of high pressure (600 dm over northern New Mexico) built in over the Great Basin and desert Southwest, beginning around June 29th, lasting through approximately July 7, when it hit another peak in temperatures. This resulted in extreme high temperatures, well above normal across the region during this period. The hottest days in July were the 1st through the 3rd, during which several record high minimums were set, as well as highs well over 100 degrees. Prolonged heat in the higher terrain was a significant impact, like in San Diego County. |
