February came in like a lion, remaining that in that animal form for three weeks.
And, without warning, a lamb took its place on the 22nd and has yet to leave.
According to Guy Verhoff, Pandora weather observer, the 28-day month began with a low of 8 degrees on Feb. 3 and ended with a high of 61 degrees on Feb. 28, a welcome 53-degree improvement.
Yet, during a 21-day stretch from Feb. 1 to 21, the temperature topped above freezing only twice, on the 4th and 21st.
