Tuesday was officially the first day of summer, but around the southeast, summer weather has been around for a while. A slight cooling trend — from triple digits to the low 90s — is in store for the Bulloch County area for the next few days as possible thunderstorms could bring life-giving rain to the parched earth, said Bulloch County Public Safety Director Ted Wynn. “(Tuesday was) the first day of summer,” he said. “Temperature wise, summer has been here for a month” While Tuesday’s high was around 100 degrees — recorded as higher in some places — the temperatures are expected to stay hot, but ease up just a bit later this week, he said.
