Pattern Flaming Feb 2021

44 and dumping cold rain in DC. Looks like the triad region and all of the nc Piedmont made it into the 70s so not a bust at least! One more day of this though tomorrow doesn’t look as enjoyable . Bet y’all wish you were in DC.
Yep, barely squeeked it in. Clouds started breaking up around 3:30, and we climbed to 71. Not a bust, but those clouds hanged on longer than I wanted them too.
 
Augusta's 87 is a new record for the entire met winter!

Make that 88! So, today's high was 2 warmer than any high in any prior met winter on record!

..RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE SET AT AUGUSTA BUSH FIELD GA

A RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE OF 88 WAS SET AT AUGUSTA BUSH FIELD GA TODAY.
THIS BREAKS THE OLD RECORD OF 86 SET IN 1962.
 
The station in laurinburg NC which has been running since 1946 broke its winter record high as well by touching 85 today . Darn CAD , today had record potential here if the inversion had broke earlier !
 
Gotta remember though, it’s never winter in Columbia
Pretty close , think both Columbia and Wilmington average February and December highs above 60 now on the new normals leaving only January which averages upper 50s more so .

warmest station in NC averages close to 59 (58.8 to be exact , big diurnals though low is like 34) in January 1981-2010, Southport NC. Been running since 1800s though sadly looks like after 2016 it closed . Would have been cool to see 91-20 averages for it.
 
Cold fronts still work

Well February 2021 was actually BN for a change! Baton Rouge NWS reporting station had a departure for the month of -4.3. The last few days of warmth erased some of the departures BN mid month from the Arctic airmass.
