 | Title : Today will be above normal

 | Votes : Good: 7   Bad: 7

The title of this feature is not much of a bold prediction considering 7 AM temperatures are already warmer in the low 30s than average high temperatures.  In fact, temperatures will approach 50 degrees today making it yet another day above normal this winter.
