Above Normal?

I was perusing through Richmond's climate this morning and was startled by one statistic - on average, temps have been slightly above normal so far this month. This is hard to believe considering the cold weather we've seen the past week - we tied a record low temperature on Sunday morning!

If you crunch through the numbers (high and lows), you get a 50.2 average temperature. Granted, the normal is 50.0, so we are *just* barely above the norm.

We have some rain headed this way for late this afternoon and especially this evening and tonight. This storm system will also bring in a reinforcing push of cooler air, so it is possible that we will finish the month at or slightly below normal.
