If the forecast holds, it will be the first June in history where all 30 days of the month have had a 100 degree or higher high temperature. And, we're going to have several days in a row of 110 or higher starting on Friday. The record for the longest streak of 110 degree or higher days is six, and that was in 1994. We probably won't break that, but mother nature has been making us sweat in this city to kick off the summer.
