Weather Question

something like this? http://www.almanac.com/

I''m not sure. I know there are ones out there but I''m coming up short, hopefully someone will be able to help you out!

www.weatherunderground.com is invaluable!

The only thing is, I can''t figure out whether it''s more accurate to compare dates (say, June 1) or day of the month (second Saturdays in June)? I would assume day of the month, but I''m certainly not an expert...

The Weather Channel has an actual "wedding weather" page you can set up that gives you historical weather info, plus forecasts for your wedding day. I set one up, and it was fun to check it out every so often. Here''s a link: Weather.com wedding page

Day of the week does not affect weather, except in highly urban environments where extra traffic on weekdays might increase smog, say.

So look at Jun 1, not first Saturday in June.

But also look at May 15 through June 15, as you are really looking for a prediction, and there still will be statistical variation in our records from day to day as we have not been keeping weather averages long enough to fully smooth them out.

Both averages and extremes are useful.

Useful to know that the average high temp is 89, the record high temp is 101. (Meaning upper 90''s is possible on your wedding day.) Useful to know that average rainfall is 0.05 inches, but record rainfall is 1.2 inches. In conjuction with knowing that the average number of rainy days in June is 4, this tells you that rain is unlikely but possible at your venue and you need a rain plan.

Thanks guys, this will be a big help!

Well, I didn''t actually mean day of the week (like Fridays versus Sundays), but rather, for instance if I''m thinking about having a wedding on April 18, 2009, should I be looking at historical data for April 18 or historical data for the 3rd Saturday in April (so 4/21/07, 4/15/06, 4/16/05, etc.)

Selkie!
I love you, that weather site is perfection!
It gives historical hour by hour highs and lows, (and imp for you and me, wind speed and direction!)
thank you kisses!
