Only the Records Are Falling!

Not only was a daily record high set in Chattanooga, it was within 1 degree of tying the all time record high. 105 was recorded at Lovell Field at 2:26pm which surpassed the old record of 102 set in 1968. The all time record high is 106 set on July 28, 1952. We are also seeing other records fall. We are still on pace for the hottest August on record with an average temperature of 86 degrees far above the current record holder of August 1993 with an average of 82.5. We have experienced 20 straight of temperatures above 95. The old record was 18 days in late August and early September of 1993. We could set another record Friday with highs around 100. The record is 101, so another record is within reach.
