I don't remember this much rain in the summer since '72 when Mark Spitz hauled in gold. This year we have the human fish Mike Phelps.
Wasn't someting brewing with the price of gas that year of was it '73
I remember getting a good deal on a new '74 firebird 400

Yep, very cool in the east; very warm in the west.  -seems to depend on the location and locked pattern of a jetstream that normally wanders.

Read in an AP news article that Chicago is experiencing the coolest summer since '32.

At the same time, back in '32 horrendous dust belt heat was sweltering the regions south and south west of them.  Similar to this year.  And, as you say, there's New England.  Of course it never stops raining in Maine.  ;D

So one of my theories for the onset of a new ice age is the locking of the jetstream in this summer's pattern for a relatively long time, say through several years.  After all the deepest glaciers were in Laurentian Canada and crept farthest south in the eastern U.S., New York State, etc.

-And the Sun's still at minimum white light sunspots.  ....very minimum.  A lot of grants will depend on whether spots soon appear.... duhn, du, duhn, da.
