How High Will Phoenix Reach in March 2014?

If you watched the news and weather this morning you know the mid-west and eastern seaboard are still in the deep freeze while here in the Valley of the Sun we are bumping up against ninety degrees Fahrenheit.

When do you feel we will go from warm to hot this year? A more important question maybe, is your air conditioner ready to keepl you cool and comfortable? Yes, I know, it was working when you shut it off at the end of our last summer’s cooling season.

Do you know that some HVAC companies recommend that once a month an AC unit needs to be run for ten to twenty minutes to keep the unit in good shape.  I don’t know about you but while the temperature in December was in the low fifties I didn’t want to run an air conditioner for twenty minutes.

We would like to remind you that now is a great time to do your spring AC tune-up.  Do it now and that way you know your HVAC unit or air conditioner will really be ready for the coming summer heat-waves.

Did You Know?

An average Phoenix Metro Area summer has 106 days above one-hundred degrees.

I don’t know if you would consider this worse news, but here is the average number of days that will be over 110 degrees here in the Valley of the Sun – 17.

Want to know what year we had the most number of days at or above 110 degrees?  That was 32 days in 2007. Wow, a whole month worth of days at or above 110 degrees Fahrenheit! Don’t blame the National Weather Service for that, they just keep track of the statistics.

In 1974 Phoenix had 18 consecutive days with maximum temperatures of 110 or higher.

Here is one temperature fact that we don’t often think about. The record high for an overnight low is 96.  Ninety-six degrees would be considered a respectably hot summer day in most of the rest of the country.

So enjoy our fantastic spring weather and temperatures, here in the Phoenix Metro area, while you can.
