Weather in Baytown Reflects Broad National Cool Spell
Baytown's weather scene mirrors a national pattern with temperatures 3 to 4 degrees below normal across a wide arc from California to Virginia. Weather expert Philip Clapp cites reduced Gulf air inflow and more polar air from Canada as causes, while heavy rainfall and cloud cover limit daytime warming. Signs include unusually early bird migration, a wheat shower on a 1250 foot Empire State antenna, and record cool days in Chicago and St Louis. Clapp warns that his 30 day outlook calls for warmer but still below normal conditions into mid September.
