The heat wave you felt last month wasn't just in your neck of the woods.

From the Rockies to the West Coast, much of the contiguous United States baked under record or near-record warmth, the National Climatic Data Center announced Wednesday in its monthly , making June 2015 the nation's second-warmest June on record.

The average U.S. temperature for the 48 contiguous U.S. states was 71.4°F in June 2015, or 2.9°F above the 20th century average and behind only June 1933 in a historical record that dates back more than 120 years.

A few other highlights from the report:

Texas saw its wettest year-to-date precipitation on record, with just over 24 inches -- or 10.7 inches above its average from January through June.Wetter-than-average weather persisted across much of the Southwest, Great Plains, Midwest and Northeast -- Illinois, Indiana and Ohio each saw their wettest June on record.Drought conditions improved across the Southwest, Upper Midwest and Northeast, but California remains firmly in the grip of the nation's worst drought -- more than 46 percent of the state is in the worst category of drought (D4, exceptional drought).
