July has been a 2 faced month this year. On one side, oppressively hot & humid, on the other side, this odd cool/dry weather towards the end. We have also seen -the weirdest- storms since moving here many years ago. Storms that are more typical of tropical climates with tons of rain and wind, and moderate to light thunder/lightning.
One thing is for sure, the climate is changing. About 10 years ago the usual seasonal cycles and weather have started to get more and more erratic. This last winter we had an ice storm that put 4 million people in the dark right after we had one of the biggest (in time vs accumulation) snow storms in recent memory that caught many people off guard. We also saw one day go from 55 degrees in the afternoon, to minus 2 degrees that same night.
Strange (and concerning) stuff.
