NOAA released their climate summary for July 2015 today.  You can find it at https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/summary-info/national/201507.  The summary shows that July was just above the long-term average in temperature for the contiguous US and that it was somewhat wetter than normal, including a surprisingly wet California, which was impacted by the remains of Hurricane Dolores.  Usually California experiences almost no rain in the summer.

In the Southeast we were above much above normal in temperature in many climate divisions, while most of the Southeast was drier than normal, with the exception of parts of the Florida peninsula.

The report also provides statistics for the January through July period and states that the temperature for the year to date is the tenth warmest on record sine 1895.
