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".
