Winters Warmer Than Ever, Says Blue Hills Weatherman

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Does it feel warmer lately? It should, for according to John H. Conover, Abbott Lawrence Rotch Research Fellow at Blue Hills Observatory, the average winter temperature in New England has risen three and one-half degrees during the past 100 years.

In fact, the average all year 'round temperature has risen roughly the same amount, but it hasn't changed for the last 20 years.

Conover doesn't know the reason for this difference, but, as far as he knows, it only holds true for New England.

"I'm afraid it doesn't mean that there will be an early spring, though," he concluded.
