Fresno has always been known for it’s hot and sunny summer days as the weather typically ranges in the 100s. Last summer, Fresno hit a new record with a high of 114 degrees, July, 11. So why is Fresno already starting to heat up in winter?

The 135 year tradition of Groundhogs day, predicts that there will be six more weeks of winter as Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow, Feb. 2.

Currently the temperature spans from a low of 40s to a high of 70s. This weather is beneficial to California’s agriculture and blooming of flowers.

Blossoms have started to bloom on campus and around the valley. You can visit the eastern Fresno County Orchards by visiting this map, Blossom Trail Map. For more information about the blossoms, check out Fresno County Blossom Trail.
