1) 29 Days with Above Average High Temperatures

2) Hottest June on Record

June 2022 is now the hottest on record in San Antonio (Copyright 2022 by KSAT - All rights reserved.)

The average of June’s high and low temperatures was 87.7 degrees, making it the hottest June on record and the hottest June since 1990.

3) Most 100-Degree Days

June 2022 saw the most 100-degree days of any June on record (Copyright 2022 by KSAT - All rights reserved.)

With seventeen days at or above 100 degrees, June 2022 now has the most triple digit days of any June on record.

Why has it been so hot?

The primary reason for our unusually hot June (and, May!) is because La Niña conditions are ongoing. La Niña is a climate pattern in the Pacific Ocean, which usually results in warmer, drier weather for South Central Texas.

That being said, there is abundant evidence that climate change causes Texas temperatures to average about two degrees warmer now than in the 20th century.
