In June 1933, it hit 95° in every U.S. state and it topped 100° at least once in 44 states and 105° in 35 states. So far this month, it has reached 100° in 35 states and 105° in only 14 (data in the maps below are from NOAA. https://xmacis.rcc-acis.org/).
Oh, but what about "averages”? Well, I’m glad you asked. By the measured GHCNd station data, June 1933 was the hottest on record in the U.S. Of the top 10, eight occurred before 1955, and only two have been in the last 70-years:
