I want to extend a congrats to Phil, who has THE bragging rights of the day as GNV had THE warmest DJF temp on record beating the previous warmest of 89 and also obliterating today's old record high of a "mere" 87! Go out and celebrate by having some beer! The prior earliest 91 was not til 3 weeks later, 3/16 (in 1942.!!What's more is that this is the EIGHTH new daily record record high of the month! Two of those were at 89, which at the time had established new record highs for the entire month, too, as the record hottest for Feb had been 88 before this year. These are such amazing stats that one has to wonder about what's going on globally that may have contributed to this. Regardless, -PNA/SER/warm Atlantic ftw! This month's thread title should be switched to "Amazing Feb" because what has happened this month has ben truly amazing in so many aspects. Not necessarily amazing in a likeable way, but rather in a hard to believe way.
Meanwhile, I've been socked into a drizzly wedgey day with near 60, which is actually slightly cooler than average for the afternoon.
