Pattern Failbruary Thread

Wow what a day for February! It got to 73 degrees in Roanoke and I got to play golf. Walked 9 after class with some friends who play college golf and beat the sh*t out of them. Was +1 thru 9 from the backs. Bring on spring!
 
At noon it is already 84 at Augusta and 82 at KSAV! KSAV was 2 cooler 24 hours ago and they had a high yesterday of 84, tieing the record. The record high for today is 86. Doing the math says that another record is possible. SAV has warm SW winds (no nearby ocean cooling) and sunny skies to help challenge it. Let’s see if they get there. The NWS has only a high of low 80s, which seems low.

This has been well predicted for at least a week.

The power of the SER! While GSO is at only 45 with a miserable wedged cold rain, we’re basking in sunshine with 80s! At 1PM, KSAV was at 82 though with 84 the high so far. Augusta is at 85!
 
With Augusta already at 85, I have been able to find only 3 met. winter days warmer on record back to 1875:

- 2/21/2018 with 86
- 2/28/1962 with 86
- 2/28/2021 with 88

Keep in mind that Augusta may go over 85. The power of the SER!
 
1. Augusta was up to 87 at 2PM, making it already the 2nd warmest met. winter day there on record! That leaves only 2/28/2021’s 88 as a warmer day and that being the case only if Augusta doesn’t warm any more.

2. KSAV was back up to 84 at 2 PM vs the record of 86.

3. GSO is down to a miserable 41 with rain! So, 46 colder than Augusta!!

absolute insanity...
 
Interesting at Augusta: note the asterisk by the supposed record. If the 88 stands, it would tie the alltime met. winter highest back to 1875 with 2/28/2021!

..THE AUGUSTA BUSH FIELD GA CLIMATE SUMMARY FOR FEBRUARY 24 2022

MAXIMUM *88R 2:50 PM 84 2017 66 22 78

NOTE: *RECORD HIGH TODAY MAY BE IN QUESTION DUE TO POSSIBLE ISSUES
WITH THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR AS THIS HIGH TEMPERATURE WAS
SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN SURROUNDING LOCATIONS. A TECHNICIAN WILL
GO TO BUSH FIELD ON FRIDAY TO INVESTIGATE THE SENSOR.

I call -------- on that reading, this puts into question their entire composition of new averages. Just like KATL, they have deviated so far higher from the other local reporting stations, it’s not believable at this point. KPDK is arguably in a more urban environment inside of 285 in Chamblee, a mere 10 miles north, and their January average high is 51.7F, KATLs is 54F.
I don’t buy it.

I swear there was a point in time when February and March were actually cold. This is a late April/early May pattern.

Well, they were cold in much of NC and TN today!

Today's high at KSAV was 85, which means that they have had 85+ in Feb for 5 years in a row and 84+ for 7 years in a row! Prior to this, the longest streak of Febs with 84+ was only two, 1996-7!
