    Spot on. In affected ares of USA records continue to be broken for dates. Record lows and daytime highs continue to shatter records and/or many others dating back to (dare I mention it?) “Little Ice Age” times of late 1800’s. (“glaciation” of US – word you used in recent video was, um, ah – perfect!)
