Broiling wet? That air conditioner is gonna make the electric bill more than a little scary if it's accurate.

Just like someone who's gone to the doctor and gotten bad news, I decided to seek out a 2nd opinion. In this case, it was from NOAA's Climate Prediction Center. The bad news is their 3-month outlook more or less agrees with what Farmer's Almanac is saying. Notice we're in the darker area.

I would advise you check out what Farmer's Almanac says for yourself. Let's hope there's an update at some point where they say "whoops, our bad...we were wrong". In the meantime, make sure that air conditioner and box fan collection is prepared for the worst.
