Summer 2012 Climate Summary

The following are the Summer of 2012 summaries plus daily data for each month in a spreadsheet for the five ASOS (Automated Surface Observing Systems) stations in Western Massachusetts. I plan on releasing an autumn climate summary in December and thereafter a summary for each month with seasonal updates as well. Hope you find them useful!
