National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) just released its annual climate summary for 2019. We were thinking it was hot well we were right. The average temperature in the southeast was considered the warmest on record. If you zoom in on the county temperature ranks you can see that Tift County is dark red. You can also see on the county precipitation ranks that Tift County was below average for the year. We said it was hot and dry last year, this just backs it up.
