A heat wave is defined as three consecutive days when the temperature reaches 90 degrees, and we’re certainly experiencing one of the hottest months of July in years. With our town being a peninsula, we know how Winthrop residents grow up and appreciate being so close to the water and having our great yacht clubs and sailing activities, plus our beaches. Yes, it’s been maybe a little too hot for our liking as we get older, but summer is the best time of the year, with people out and about enjoying all that our fantastic town has to offer.
