*MDA = Most days above
*MCDA = Most consecutive days above
Note: MCDA days can be heat waves with only a portion of the days inside July.
Overall, it seems that 2021 had more days that were hot, and longer stretches of hot days, but 2024 had the temperature hotter. This makes sense, because we already started getting that special temperature pattern in July.
