Delaware's Hottest Summer on Record | Dover News

Delaware’s summer just shattered heat records—temps ran 2-3 degrees hotter than average, with highs hitting 87.6°F (tied with 2010) and stubborn lows around 67.4°F, making nights nearly as scorching. Five new daily highs were set during intense heat waves in June and July, with meteorologists noting little relief between days. The National Weather Service warns that the real danger lies in those relentless warm nights, making it hard for bodies to recover without AC. While El Niño is active, officials say it didn’t drive the heat locally, and long-term trends remain unclear. This summer’s data? Unmistakably hot—and possibly just the beginning.
