Average Summer Temperatures

  • Did a search to find average daily temperatures for summer 2010 in Long Beach. Closest answer I found was for Los Angeles International Airport, August, which is close enough, except L.A. is often warmer than Long Beach.

    **Aug 20l0 *Normal August*Summer*SUMMER 2010*Normal Summer**

AVG MAX TEMP xxxx 71.4 xxxx 76.8 xxxx 70.3 xxxx74.9
AVG MIN TEMP xxxxx 60.3 xxxx 64.5 xxxx 60.5 xxxx 62.6
AVG TEMP xxxxxxxxx 65.8 xxxx 70.7 xxxx 65.4 xxxx68.8

I was surprised to see the normal average summer temperature is only 68.8 degrees. This is the first summer that I slept with a blanket rather than a sheet. No matter how hot it gets I always need a cover or can not fall to sleep.

It took many hours for me to warm up after sleeping outdoors on cold concrete while street living. Yet I saw many homeless who wear shorts and t-shirt year-round. Some people's bodies tolerate weather extremes better than others.

Hope you can understand that chart. Blogger makes me want to scream, re-doing what I posted, rather than how it looks when I type it. Aargh moment for sure and does not help because idiot next door is blabbing on the telephone once again and my patience is fried.
