SEATTLE (AP) — The National Weather Service says temperature records were set across Washington on Saturday, with Spokane reaching the highest temperature ever recorded in June.
The temperature reached 90 degrees at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport at 3 p.m., setting a record for the day. Other records were set in Olympia, which hit 92, and Bellingham, which reached 85.
The weather service says the temperature reached 102 degrees in Spokane on Saturday, hotter than in downtown Spokane. But warm temperatures were expected again on Sunday, which could potentially set a new June record. The previous June record in Spokane was 101 degrees on June 23, 1992. The previous record in Spokane for June 27 was 98 degrees in 1925.
