Record daily high temperatures were recorded at the courthouse in Broadus last week, as the mercury climbed to 106 on Wednesday the 24th, and 109 degrees on the 25th. The heat caused the cancellation of the muddy pig wrestling on Wednesday.
The previous daily high temperature on July 24th was 105, recorded last year, on July 24th, 2023.
The previous record on July 25th was 104, recorded four previous times, on July 25th of 1983, 2003, 2007, and last year, in 2023.
The all-time high of 110 occurred in June and July of 2021. Records in Broadus go back to 1920, though a good portion of records from the late 1920s through the mid-1930s are missing.
