2009 The Summer That Wasn't

Spending time at Casey Lake is wonderful no matter what the weather is like, but when it's a sunny day, around 82 degrees with a light breeze, it's hard to beat. The summer of 2009 so far has been fall-like with lots of clouds, cool temps and wind. According to Meteorologist Karl Bohnak of WLUC-TV6, "June was over two degrees below average, while July is close to six degrees below normal. Secondly, due to the strong temperature contrast between here and areas to the south, strong low-pressure areas have developed close by. These lows have produced a lot of wind." Let's hope that August brings summer warmth and calm breezes!
