Interesting weather records for Norman, Okla

I was browsing around yesterday on the Mesonet web site and uncovered an interesting observation. The temperature records for Norman, which go back to 1994 (17 yrs now) and span two sites (in reasonable proximity, NORM and NRMN), show that the all-time record high AND all-time record low for Norman both occurred this year!

Record high: 109F, on 09/July/2011
Record low : -4F , on 10/Febr/2011

(The old site, NORM, recorded 108F in 1998).

What an interesting weather year you've had, Norman! Enjoy the rest of it.

**Edit: Thanks, Karen, for pointing out that Norman has a much longer temperature record than 17 years. I meant just that the Mesonet records start in 1994.
