CURRENT WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR BONNY DOON, CALIFORNIA
August 2010 news:
Hottest day so far this year today, August 24th: 103.1F!
(Santa Cruz broke a record back to 1926 with 101)
(Scotts Valley broke a record with 107)
Yes, its been much cooler than "normal", and I think we can all agree on one thing: cooler weather means less chance of a forest fire.
I will be replacing the hardware that runs this weather station soon at a cost of $1,195.00. I have used the same hardware for close to decade now, so it's time for an upgrade.
This weather page has been a labor of love for me for over a decade now. For me it's become more than "just a hobby".
