While no records were broken during this 4-week time span, it was certainly noticeable by many just how unsettled and chilly it was.  In fact, so far the highest temperature for the month of December has only been 42°, which would be the coldest max temp for the month in nearly 30 years. Well, it looks like our cold and snowy streak is coming to an end… at least for a few days.
