Tropical Storm Elsa and a severe weather outbreak on July 29 helped spawn eight tornadoes in the month of July, putting 2021 near the top for most in one year. Meteorologist Joe Martucci and New Jersey State Climatologist Dave Robinson sit down to talk about it. Dave says we still have plenty of the year to go to get the top tornado spot of 17 back in 1989.

T.S. Elsa and the tornadoes both came with plenty of rain, with Robinson says way well above average. That rain did help put a lid on extreme heat.
