Few New Records This Year
Posted: 23 Nov 2021 05:30 AM
With only a month and a week to go with the year 2021, it is a good time to start reviewing how things
went! The featured chart presents the number of new daily records set for maximum high temperature,
minimum low temperature, and precipitation. Ties are not included in this analysis. Each chart also
contains a simple 365 divided by the number of years on record to the given year as an example model
of how many records may be expected that year. The first few years are truncated on the y-axis as
records are frequently set then with the limited period of record. Anyway, the totals shown for 2021 are
rather few. Additionally, over the past 25 years or so, none of the years are shown above the simple
model for new record low temperatures.
