Spinning the Weather
Here's how NOAA pushes this winter's temperatures:
NOAA: Coolest Winter Since 2001 for U.S., Globe
Is that good news? In the first bullet point:
In the contiguous United States, the average winter temperature was 33.2°F (0.6°C), which was 0.2°F (0.1°C) above the 20th century average...
And then there's this point:
February was 61st warmest in the contiguous U.S. and 15th warmest globally on record.
Hardly seems like the headline is the best measure of the information.

However, I'll let you come and shovel my "global warming" next winter anytime, because it's killing my back.
