First 80’s of the year at RDU

I know there was a WRAL piece on why RDU is sometimes warmer, but I still wonder if the runway construction has at least a minor impact. Since the new runway is going to go right where the station is, anyone know where it's going to be moved?

Looking at a recent sat photo (Feb 1) is it still in it's original location?

I don’t know, but once again it is SIGNIFICANTLY warmer than all surrounding sites. Still a record warm day but 80 seems excessive

Another KSAV high in the low 80s. That makes 5 of the last 9 days! It’s like mid to late April on these days! AC has been running.

 Another day in low 80s is forecasted tomorrow. Then hopefully no more for quite awhile/we’ll see!

-KSAV today hit 81. That makes 80+ for 6 of the last 10 days! We’re probably headed to warmest 1st half of Feb since at least way back in 1957!

-There will be 2 more shots at 80+ this week (Wed and Thu). Then hopefully no more for awhile. It’s been like mid April for most of the last 10 days here!

Picked up .12" overnight. High temp was 48 at midnight and we have been dropping ever since. Its 40 at noon.

Edit: Daytime high was only 42. Clouds and wind held all day. What a raw February day. 31 degree difference from yesterday.

 What a sharp wedge front! At noon it was 48 at Monck’s Corner 25 miles N of CHS, 56 at CHS, and 76 at Beaufort MCAS, which is 50 mi SW of CHS!

 At ~1PM it was 80 at Hunter, 78.9 here, and 78 at KSAV!
 
 So, winter in CHS area while mid spring holds on in SAV area for no more than a couple more hours.

 The short term/mesoscale models missed pretty badly the extent of the warmth preceding the wedge front Beaufort to SAV. NAMs/WRFs were awful HRRR was a bit closer. 

2:20PM update: wedge front came through, winds increased/shifted, and temps fell 9F here within just a short period. But at 2PM it was still 80 at Hunter and up to 79 at KSAV.

Edit: KSAV ended up with another 80+ high with 80, 7th 80+ in 11 days! This one was not at all predicted as only mid 70s had been expected.

At 2PM it was 79 at KSAV. At 7PM it was all the way down to 53!
