Summer 2020 Generally Wetter and Warmer Than Normal

Sep 02, 2020

By Pam Knox

The preliminary climate summary for the Southeast for June through August 2020 shows that most of the Southeast was warmer and wetter than normal, although there was quite a bit of variability across the region. The driest areas were in central and southern Georgia and in southwestern Florida, while the wettest areas were along the path of Hurricane Isaias. Daytime high temperatures were fairly close to normal, but nighttime low temperatures were much above normal, in part due to the humid conditions experienced across the region.
