If you thought that June 2013 seemed like a wet month, you'd be right. In Clarksburg, rainfall was over 2 inches above the 30-year normal for June. A good chunk of north central West Virginia had been on the verge of drought conditions if we didn't see some rain and this should certainly help out with that.
Temperatures in June 2013 were pretty close to the 30-year normals for both highs and lows, with our average high for the month being around 3 degrees below the 30-year normal for June and our average low for the month about 3 degrees above the 30-year normal.
More wet weather and near normal temperatures are on the way for the start of July. There are indications in the long term (toward the middle of the month) that the big ridge of high pressure which is out over the western U.S. could shift eastward a little bit. There is still some uncertainty as to how far east it could build, but with a trough in the East to start the month and a large high pressure system over the middle of the country by the middle of the month, things look to stay wet here across north central WV.
