Autumn 2020 Ranks in Top Ten Warmest, Wettest in Many Locations

 

The Perspectives tool at the Southeastern Regional Climate Center shows how individual station temperature and precipitation observations this fall rank compared to their long-term averages. The maps show that many areas in the Southeast reported their top ten warmest falls on record, not a big surprise for those of us who have enjoyed it. Precipitation was also in the top ten wettest for many locations, a legacy of all the tropical systems which have passed near us this year.
