Welcome to July. Yeah, it's toasty!
On tap: Independence Day, the Summer Olympics, Baseball's All-Star game, and, lest we forget, it's also time to celebrate Shark Awareness Day, Be a Dork Day, and Paperback Book Day
On average, the month of July is the hottest of the year, and 2024 is likely to set new records, according to the national Climate Prediction Center.
While the longest day of the year is the summer solstice in June, it takes time for the extra sunshine to warm up the Earth’s surface and the air above, which is why July always swelters.
And with global war…
