Summary

The July 1965 Beaver Beacon publishes Fire Officer Bill Wagner’s weather report for the preceding month. It records 2.22 inches of rain, a high of 86 degrees on the 27th, a low of 36 on the night of the 3rd, and average daytime and nighttime temperatures of 70.5 and 49.3 degrees.

Evidence and limits

The issue’s month context indicates that these figures describe June, although the newspaper does not label the reporting period with a separate month heading. This is a local report, not an official weather-station log.
