The Heat Is On. The Fourth of July Window Just Got a Lot More Interesting.
What the latest outlook means for retail demand, consumer spending, and public health.
The updated 6-10 day outlook issued June 22 shows a powerful above-normal temperature signal building across the Central and Eastern US through June 28 - July 2. The Ohio Valley, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast are now showing a likely above-normal temperature outlook — 80-90% probability in the core. The 8-14 day outlook extends that signal through July 6, well into the post-Fourth of July selling window.
