Dec on paper was fine
In reality it was very rainy with a lot of missed opportunities
It will now be followed by an indefinite period of fall-like warmth.
I don’t think anybody would be complaining about Dec if we were seeing 30s and 20s going forward.
In reality, it seems like we had a marginal Dec and took a turn for the worse
People keep comparing this to last winter, but last winter was cold during the dry periods and warm for precip.
This looks more like an extended period of warmth.
