| episode_narrative | A historical heat wave affected southcentral and southeast Wisconsin during the last three days of November, and extended into early December. Numerous record high temperatures and record high minimum temperatures were tied or broken. A jet stream pattern locked in over southern Canada assured that low pressure system tracked north of Wisconsin, allowing southern Wisconsin to experience south to southwest winds and sunshine in unheard of proportions. Much above normal temperatures, but not record-setting, actually occurred as early as November 22nd, the first day of a long string of days with daytime maximum readings in the 50s and 60s. The 64 degrees registered in Madison on the 29th was the warmest so late in the season. The new record maximum and high minimum readings in Milwaukee on the 29th are the warmest so late in the season.Here's a breakdown on the records:November 23...Sheboygan...new record maximum of 58.November 25...Madison...new record high mininum of 44.November 27...Madison...record maximum of 65 tied.
