Observed Number of Very Warm Nights
Figure 4.3
Cooperative Institute for Climate and Satellites - NCKenneth E. Kunkel
This figure appears in chapter 4 of the NOAA-led State Summaries 2017 report.
The observed number of very warm nights (annual number of days with minimum temperature above 75°F) for 1900–2014, averaged over 5-year periods; these values are averages from 16 long-term reporting stations. The number of very warm nights has generally been above average since 1995, with a record number of such events occurring during the most recent 5-year period (2010–2014) because of very high values in 2010, 2011, and 2012. The dark horizontal line is the long-term average of about 8 days per year per station. Source: CICS-NC and NOAA NCEI.
