Spring-like 60 and 70 degree temperatures surge into Nebraska in Mid Winter
Ahead of another surge of Arctic air from Canada, mild spring like warmth entered the midlands from the Southwestern U.S. Without any snow cover to moderate the temperatures, high temperatures reached the lower 60's across southeast Nebraska and lower 70's across southwestern Nebraska. January record high temperatures are a little higher in western Nebraska, so although the highs were in the lower 70's they were a few degrees short of a record
New Record High for the day: Lincoln, NE: 60 F (old record was 59 F)
Near record High Temperature: Imperial, NE, 71 F (existing record 74 F)
Observed High temperatures for January 22, 2009.
Note the single digit and below zero high temperatures in Southern Canada
Note the huge temperature plunge as the Arctic air moved across the Plains the next day
