Ending February With Warmth
Two records to talk about today in the region -- a tied record in Wilmington (66) and a set record at Atlantic City (70, beating the old record of 68). Where the warm front set up (generally south of 195, east of 95 in the region) is where temperatures took off today, with mid 60's common along the coastal plain in Jersey, giving way to 70's from Atlantic City, Dover and points south. The 73 degree reading in Georgetown was one off their record from 1997.
Farther north and west, it was cooler but still above average for this time of the year as temperatures topped out generally in the 50's in most locations in Pennsylvania.
Today's high in Philadelphia marks the fifth time this month we topped 60 degrees, which equals the number of 60 degree days we saw in February 2002, both months the highest total for February 60 degree days since 1990, when it was nailed seven times.
