It’s early to think of the blistering heat of mid-summer, but that’s exactly what was happening on this date in 1919. Thermometers soared to 100 degrees in Cavendish, and topped out at 101 in St. Johnsbury, the highest ever recorded there. The heat wave lasted from the 2nd to the 6th. Amazingly, record cold at the end of the month brought scattered frost!
