The same warm ridge of high pressure that brought record highs to Utah Wednesday 11 / 4 (see my recent National Weather Highlight Record highs smashed in Utah) brought mellow warmth all the way to North Dakota Friday 11 / 6. Several communities set new daily record high temperatures:
- Minot reached 75, obliterating its old 11 / 6 record of 70 (11 / 6 /1949).
- The high at Dickinson, 73, beat an 11 / 6 / 1980 record of 72.
- Williston tied an 11 / 6 / 1954 record high of 69.
Minot's high temperature of 75 may seem even more amazing given these other statistics:
- The average 11 / 6 high for Minot is 41.
- The average 11 / 6 low for Minot is 24.
- The record 11 / 6 low for Minot is a bone-chilling -9 set in 1919.
