Wedge breaking here
The sun broke out enough to hit 68 here. Feels muggy.

You would as soon as the tide hit your foot. Water temp is 50 at Dirty Myrtle.

Haha my kid doesn't even notice but I agree. I told her that foam is literally lethal but can't keep her out of it.
Only upper 50s at RDU today? Yikes
65/43 today cooler than most models had
From winter to summer as is more often the case with our warmer planet:

..RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE SET AT SAVANNAH GA
A RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE OF 86 WAS SET AT SAVANNAH GA TODAY.
THIS BREAKS THE OLD RECORD OF 85 SET IN 1997.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The 86 was only 1 cooler than the monthly record of 87, set on 2/25/2018. The last 3 Febs have had 86 for the warmest. This was our 3rd day in a row of 82+. The good news is that even assuming 80+ tomorrow, which is forecasted, we will end up with only 4 days of 80+ this month vs 6+ 80+ highs the prior 4 Febs.
The forecasts from just a few hours prior keep missing the highs by several or more degrees. I blame that on the persistent cold bias of most models.
Fortunately, March 2nd+ is looking much cooler with hopefully no more 80s for a week+ after tomorrow's expected low 80s and March 1, which I'm guessing will exceed 80 as the forecast for upper 70s looks too cool (CHS keeps missing too low) and models are warming as per the usual.

50 with fog
I dont want it to come back at all I've got some yard things to finish tomorrow. I do think it may be slower to warm up tomorrow than we'd like it to be
I’m almost willing to bet almost everyone in CAD regions is lower than this
Tbh the NAM was the best here today, that looks about right, that SW flow is gonna be cranking tomorrow
Can we get a shower today? Might as well beat the record.
RAH:
The front will slowly lift northward today, and any widely scattered
showers should move out of the forecast area by early afternoon.
Rainfall amounts will be light, generally on the order of a few
hundredths of an inch. Whether RDU gets the 0.02" necessary to tie
the record for wettest meteorological winter on record (or the 0.03"
necessary to beat it) is still up for debate but it will be close
no doubt.

Currently in Dunn it's 67 here didn't expect that when I got out of the car
53F cloudy
55F, very very foggy
50F, Fog/Mist. Will we hit the forecast of 68. I have my doubts. ?
