Mostly Record Highs

Posted: 06 Mar 2017 05:34 AM

The pleasantly warm weather this weekend was a reminder of the record warm just a while back during February. During which time we were setting a number of new daily record high temperatures. The featured chart presents the record high and low temperature set dates and beat margin. These events are computed as they are established with the passage of time. For example, records set in the 1940s may no longer still be records today, but are included in this chart. Anyway, the point of the plot is to show that recently we have certainly seen a larger share of record high temperatures set vs record lows.

Voting:
Good = 15
Bad = 2
