"This summer has been cooler than normal because there were below normal sea surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean," Harrington said. Lower temperatures changed the pattern of the jet stream that usually flows along the U.S.-Canadian border, he said. This summer the jet stream migrated south, bringing with it the cooler temperatures from the north. According to the National Weather Service, the average temperature in June was 69 degrees, 4 degrees below normal. July averaged 76 degrees and August dipped to an average of 71.3 degrees. The total amount of rainfall was 14.27 inches, which was about average for eastern Nebraska. The cooler-than-normal temperatures however, did provide excellent crop growing conditions. Although the low temperatures slowed crop growth, Ralph Neild, UNL horticulture professor, said bumper crops are expected for the fall harvest.
