Setting records is one of the only consolations to come from the scorching summer of 1994. Several measures of misery have already been established - including Sunday's wilting 104 degrees in Provo - and the Wasatch Front was on the verge early Monday of hitting another.
The low of 82 degrees this morning could be a record "high minimum," if an expected rain storm this evening doesn't cool things down too much. The pre-eminent high minimum is (and could be was) 79, occurring in July 1956.
