| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | An Indian summer environment did not want to leave. Temperatures remained well above normal. Daytime readings in the 50s and 60s were common across the lowlands. The warmest days were on the 4th, 5th, and 14th. Hamlin had 81 degrees, while Madison observed 80 degrees on the 5th. Records were set on the 5th at Charleston with 77 degrees, Huntington with 76 degrees, both Parkersburg and Elkins saw 74 degrees, and Beckley registered 73 degrees. Flowers and grass continued to grow along the river valleys. Mosquitoes were even spotted as late as the 8th. Ski resorts continued to postponed their opening date for the new season, finally getting started by Christmas. Some residents in the southern lowlands did not see their first snow flakes of the season until after Christmas. The low water flows of November, on headwater rivers, spilled over into the first week of December. Surface water flows gradually increased during the last 3 weeks of the month. Normal to below normal temperatures arrived by the last week of the month, preventing the overall monthly temperature from reaching record levels. |
