This sure is not what I would call this!!.....In fact this is by far not that! Ok time to do some debunking…..Ok here is what I’m going to do I will list every day with the Average high and low along with the mean temps for that day, will also list the record highs and lows for that day…..This is for Rice Lake only!!! However with this last heat wave and doing some checking for other cities we found some record breaking temps however nothing we would call unbelievable, unheard of and unreal and so on…..This warm spell should not have come to a surprise to anyone, as our forecast for the fall was calling for above average temps….

So as one can see this past heat wave was not unbelievable, unheard of, and unreal…..If we would have 90s then the those words would have fit….Sorry not this time around they don’t…..This is typical of a year when La Nina is rebuilding ….Just like last fall and more like last October….Last October we had our first snow fall on the 27th ……Last October this same time we were basking in temps in the 70s so this October is about the same as last year just a little warmer….
So don’t believe everything you read or hear, you can always count on us for the facts, not some miss guided info with a few facts that get blowing out of proration…..
