Phoenix officially records Hottest month Ever, sets National Record for July 2023


The Valley's sizzling hot month has finally come to an end, but with that in mind, July is also looking to be a bit of a scorcher. Kylee Cruz reports.

PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) -- July 2023 will go down in the history book as the Hottest month Ever in Phoenix and the Hottest month Ever recorded in a US city, according to the state’s climatologist.

Arizona State Climatologist Dr. Erinanne Saffell says Phoenix broke the national hottest month record set by Lake Havasu in July 1996. During that month, the Arizona city’s average monthly temperature was 102.2. Phoenix’s average monthly temperature was 102.7 in July 2023, half a degree above the Lake Havasu record. Since this is a U.S. city record, Death Valley isn’t included in these stats.

“I think beyond the Phoenix metropolitan area, many people in the Southwest are going to remember this July as the hottest July on record for them,” Saffell said.

Our average high was 114.7 and our average low was 90.8 for the month. Phoenix broke many heat records in July, including the most consecutive days with morning lows in the 90s. Sky Harbor recorded a 16-day stretch of morning lows in the 90s.

“I think it’s important to recognize how that built up so we had that really strong ridge of high pressure that impacted more than just the Phoenix metropolitan area. The Southwest was impacted as well. We need that ridge of high pressure in Arizona to bring us our thunderstorms, but we had a delayed monsoon,” Saffell said.

Saffell says the urban heat island in the Phoenix metro also played a role since it doesn’t allow us to cool off overnight. Phoenix also recorded 3 days of 119 temps last month and 4 days of 118. In fact, 17 days in July were at or above 115, but don’t expect August to be much cooler. Thirty days in July recorded highs of at least 110 degrees.
“It still looks when we’re looking at that long-term trend to be warmer and drier this summer,” Saffell added.

As of Monday morning, Arizona’s Family First Alert Weather 7-day forecast shows 6 of the next 7 days at 110+.

Nothing we don't see every year.

People die all the time from heat here. Especially the homeless. Deaths are actually a little slow this year.

Each year more and more snowbirds elect to stay and ride out the summer. For some, it's a not a good choice.

We lose hikers in the Superstitions every year. For as long as I've hiked them there are canyons where the air does not move and they can become miserable. Best strategy....don't hike in the afternoon in the summer. It's asking for trouble.

Back when they had metal seat belt buckles, ER's would treat a steady stream of summer visitors who would wear shorts and sit on one (buckle) after their car had been in a mall parking lot in the afternoon.

IT'S PHOENIX and it gets hot here in the summer. Always has.

Hot weather.

I hope they have reliable, natural gas or nuclear power, to run their AC.

IT'S PHOENIX and it gets hot here in the summer. Always has.

Wow, that really got the message across.

Phoenix doesn't see new records every year. As temperatures increase, more people are sickened and die of heat-related illnesses.
 
The OP/elektra is DISHONEST.
There does Not have to be a ONE DAY RECORD to show undue or Record Heat.
In fact, a 30 day record is much more significant.

It's official. Phoenix has again reached temperatures above 110 degrees. On Saturday, the Valley surpassed 110 degrees for the 30th day.

The Record-Breaking streak continues to Smash the Previous Record set almost 60 years ago. In June 1974, a streak of 18 days was set. As of Saturday afternoon, the temperature at Phoenix Sky Harbor reached 110 with forecasts of temperatures as high as 114 degrees.

The morning in Phoenix provided no rest from the high temperatures as residents woke up to a scorching 95 degrees.
That high-low Broke the previous Daily Record set four years ago when the temperature was 92 degrees.

Maybe instead of reporting that it is hot in phoenix, they should say it is hot in the desert/phoenix.

People are pretty dumb when it comes to hiking. I hiked some short trails in Sedona. After a hour I figured out a gallon of water was not even close to being enough water.
