Clearly, the urban heat island effect at work in a town of 31,000 spawled across 3,250 square miles.

To be honest, not seeing much evidence of increasing cold extremes in the Juneau data.

Odd, why were -10s and -20s relatively common from the 1940s to 1970s in Juneau? But only twice since (1995 & 2025)? Very weird. Regardless, a quick search shows downtown Juneau was as low as -17F in 1998, so I don't know why the airport was so much warmer. By contrast, Salt Lake City has been above its prior monthly record high minimum temperature (since 1874!) for two consecutive days, and likely a third unless it drops to 52 or lower by midnight. So I don't think those two events are actually comparable from a historical climate standpoint.

Whoa. What is going on in Pennsylvania and New York on Friday?

For all the bashing of the models, this looks like an incredibly accurate forecast from the Euro AI for the current period.

Maybe not. I was looking more from an eastern United States perspective where many areas are warming by as 8-11F per century in December since 1970, but it looks like it's more 2-4F per century in the Pacific northwest.

Feels pleasant out there today after yesterday’s chill. Up to 47F at PIT.

Quick, somebody get the "Summer Wheeze" to put him out of his misery already.

2250? That seems rather optimistic.
