Lincoln, NE, Winter Temperature Averages - Ranked
NOTE: Although the public is much more familiar with the astronomical seasons (for example, December 21 - March 21 as Winter), The National Weather Service as well as the field of Climatology uses the period December 1 through the end of February as "Winter". The Winter of 2009-10 was therefore defined as December 1, 2009 through February 28, 2010. The Winter of 2009-10 was ranked 116th warmest (or tied for 7th coldest) out of 123 winters. |
