What July feels like

July is Golden Days, when the town dresses up for a week and somebody always ends up in the charity jail on the back of a truck. It's also the heart of Interior fire season; most summers are fine, and some summers the smoke rolls in from a fire hundreds of miles off and simply sits.

Expect about 6 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. Humidity stays comfortable; the air never feels heavy.
