Which Texas city has had the coolest temps this summer? Here's the breakdown.
When you think of a Texas summer, you probably envision bright, unrelenting sunshine and daily triple-digit temperatures. This summer has been different, though. Persistent rainfall and widespread cloud cover have kept temperatures significantly cooler than expected across much of the state. Since the start of meteorological summer on June 1, most of Texas has recorded slightly below-average temperatures. Of the state's 22 metropolitan areas with a population of at least 100,000, 18 have recorded cooler-than-normal conditions. That included San Antonio, which has had an average high temp of 92.4 degrees this summer — 1.6 degrees below average. What's the coolest spot in the state, though? That honor belongs to Amarillo, which has recorded an average high temperature of 87.3 degrees. However, that's really no surprise, due to Amarillo's northern position in the Texas Panhandle. The more unexpected standout is San Angelo, which is located in the Concho Valley. The city has recorded an average high temperature of just 90.6 degrees so far this summer, an impressive 4.8 degrees below average. That's the most below-average of any city in Texas this summer. Amarillo comes in second, followed by Wichita Falls and Waco. The only Texas metro areas which have recorded above average-temperatures this summer are Brownsville, Houston, Corpus Christi and El Paso. Central Texas weather forecast for the upcoming week High pressure will shift slightly to the west, resulting in temperatures rising slightly higher across Central and South Texas. The hottest days of the week are expected to be Tuesday through Thursday. Austin is likely to reach the upper 90s each day. Low temperatures will stay consistent, falling into the mid- to upper 70s each morning. Long-range weather models are showing a low chance of tropical development in the Gulf by the late week. This could bring a chance of scattered showers and storms into South Texas by next weekend. Uncertainty is still very high with this potential Gulf disturbance, so it's definitely not time to push the alarm.

Storm Center PM Update: Starting June with Warmth and Smoke
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — It has been another hazy day across KELOLAND, but temperatures have stayed above average in the 70s and 80s. Canadian wildfire smoke will continue to hang around going into the evening and through tomorrow. Most of the smoke will be aloft, but could be near the surface at times and reduce visibility. The quiet weather continues for tonight with lows staying seasonable in the 50s. Breezy winds West River will calm down and by tomorrow we will see southerly flow return. The heat will get turned up across KELOLAND, just in time for the first day of meteorological summer. We will see highs climb into the mid to upper 80s, with some of us sitting on the brink of 90. The upper level ridge that has been bringing us this warmth will move eastward into Monday and drag a cold front through KELOLAND. A line of showers and thunderstorms is looking to form late Monday afternoon and push eastward going into the evening. Portions of eastern and southern KELOLAND are in a slight risk for severe weather. The main threats with strong to severe storms will be large hail, strong wind gusts, and locally heavy rainfall. Behind the front, temperatures will cool back into the 60s and 70s. Going into next weekend, we will look to get back to more seasonable highs for this time of year.
