Pattern Flaming Feb 2021

RDU finishes January 2021 with a 0.0 departure from normal. Completely average! Impressive. Highest temp: 60, lowest: 20. Mild and seasonal weather predominated all month with very little in the way of extremes.
 
Brad. In all seriousness. If we can't score that would be very unfortunate. I mean we saw precip like 5 days last week lol Screenshot_20210201-111113.png
 
CAE finished January 0.8 above average. Our highs were actually -0.5 but our lows were +2.1. That seems to be the story the past few years, our nighttime lows are getting warmer and warmer. It's a big deal now if we even hit freezing at night.
My understanding is that AGW is expected to cause lows to rise faster than highs, so that kind of jives. Also, maybe the UHI in a lot of metros is increasing, which has a bigger effect on nighttime lows than daytime highs. It’s been a couple years since we saw teens here, which is unreal. I hope that changes soon.
