Looking Back at July 2023 in the U.S. August 9, 2023

As I often do I reproduced John Bateman’s article in its entirety when I provide a review of the prior month.  I really did not have a link for his article but similar information was available at NCEI but John provides a good summary of the information so I tend to use it.

But I also like to add after John Bateman’s article, a few additional graphics namely the state ranking maps. These show how temperature and precipitation for each state ranks relative to the 139 years of what is considered to be the most reliable data we have.
