The North Carolina State Climate Office has a fascinating look at historical temperature records in their state in this week’s climate blog. In their post, they look for the warmest hour ever across North Carolina and discuss how they use historical climate records to determine that golden hour. They have the complications of an ocean coastline and some pretty tall mountains to add complexity to the pattern across their state, as do many of the Southeastern states.
