A record-breaking early September
Last week was the hottest early September period in Coeur d’Alene’s history, dating back to 1895. The first three days of the month had temperatures at or above 100 degrees at Cliff’s station. Two of the three days were record-breakers as a sizzling 103 degrees was reported Sept. 2.
During that very hot afternoon, the warmest readings were away from the lake as there was very little wind. However, near the lake, such as North Idaho College, high temperatures Sept. 2 were in the mid to upper 90s. The outlying areas were also very hot. It was 102 at Post Falls and Hayden, 103 degrees at Kellogg, 104 degrees at Dalton Gardens and Rathdrum, with a sizzling 105 degrees at Athol.
