  • The 102-Degree Heat Wave of the Year Without a Summer

    The 102-Degree Heat Wave of the Year Without a Summer
    Sep 23 2026
    In June 1816, in the middle of the famous "Year Without a Summer," Massachusetts went from killing frost and June snow to 102-degree heat in about twelve days. Boston diarist Ethan Allen Greenwood recorded 102 degrees on June 23, 1816, with Salem at 101 — less than two weeks after Williamstown's thermometer read 30.5 degrees with heavy frost that killed the crops where they stood. This is the forgotten heat wave inside the coldest summer in New England memory, the story of one wildly wavy jet stream producing two opposite extremes in the same month — and of the silver linings that grew out of the suffering: government relief, public health, the invention that became the bicycle, and the westward migration that shaped a growing America.

    1. The Forgotten Heat Wave
    2. Five Days of Winter
    3. Twelve Days to 102 Degrees
    4. One Pattern, Two Extremes
    5. The Cold Comes Back
    6. Silver Linings in the Frost
