| (From WSAZ.com) | I thought that this was pretty interesting. All of the record lows and highs were in a span of 3 decades: 70's, 80's, and 90's for the lows, 80's, 90's, and 00's for the highs. I would have thought with all the cold temperatures these past 2 winters that one of the lows would have been from them. This pattern of extremes in such a short span does show that there is definitely change happening. I also don't remember 104 in April of 2002 or -19 ever. Anyone else? |
I do remember the low in January, around Martin Luther King Day, because we had to cancel then move the WSAZ wrestling tournament that weekend. We had a week of low temps and the roads were frozen over. It was a mess.
ReplyDeleteI guess since I was still a kid then, I just don't remember it well. (Yes, I am calling you old.) I would have been a sophomore in high school at that time! :)
