North America Just Had Its Most Extensive November Snow Cover in at Least a Half-Century
Dozens of cities from Maine to Kansas to Texas and the Deep South had one of the 10 coldest Novembers on record, according to the Southeast Regional Climate Center. It was the coldest November dating to 1888 in Kansas City.
Five states - Arkansas, Illinois, Mississippi, Missouri and Oklahoma - had one of their top 10 coldest Novembers dating to 1895, NOAA reported.
For the entire northern hemisphere, the GSL found it was the third-most-expansive November snow cover in their 53-year database, topped only in 1993 and 1985.
North America also had its second-most-expansive October snow cover in 2018 – topped only in 2002 – and a record September snow cover extent.
