2 Days, 3 Record Temperatures

In an otherwise cold Spring, the past couple of days stand out as exceptional, especially if you like warm weather. And not just warm, but record-breaking HOT weather.

Yesterday's high of 93 shattered the old record of 88 (1970). This morning's low of 56 broke the previous "high low" temperature of 55 (1967). And today's high of 94 surpassed the previous record high of 90 (1954).

Temperature records were also set on the Oregon coast, and my friend in Roseburg Oregon reported a high yesterday of 105. Awesome, and way too hot.

Today, the moderating west winds kicked in around noon, reversing the east wind/hot weather pattern right on schedule with Temira's wind forecast.

Tomorrow's record high is 91, and it's not likely to surpass that, given the current west wind.
