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.
My guess is it has to do with how much wetter it's been. More moisture and more cloud cover at night means fewer chances for radiational cooling to occur. UHI I think applies for a lot of locations, but Columbia hasn't seen that much growth over the last 30 years, IMO.
