July Opens with Near-Record Cold
MILWAUKEE - July, like March, has come in like a lion. Today's high temperature was 63 degrees, missing by a single degree the all-time record for coldest high on July 1st.
"The record low high temperature is 62 degrees, set in 1986 and 1876," said Storm Team 4caster Brian Gotter. "We got about as close as we could, but there will be no white-out taken to the record books today."
The lowest high temperature on record in July was recorded on July 2nd, 1982, when the high was only 57 degrees.
The weather should improve by the July 4th weekend, however, as Koplien predicts sunny skies and warmer temperatures.
"We're seeing a warm front moving in by Friday, and that will push the temperature into the 80s for much of the weekend," Gotter said.
