We had a near high set last week when we hit 71 degrees on Wednesday, which was just three degrees below the record. We had a chance to hit that high, but a fast-moving storm moved in and brought gusty winds and overnight rain that kept us from reaching that high.

Hoping we will have a new record this week.
