The Nation article - 90 degrees in winter. In South Dakota.

Of course, day-to-day weather is just ‘weather’, and just about anything could happen in any given year. There are always fluctuations and variations from the norm. But this is ridiculous.

“It’s hard to overstate how impossible this weather is—when you have nearly a century and a half of records, they should be hard to break, much less smash. But this is like Barry Bonds on steroids if his steroids were on steroids, an early season outbreak of heat completely without precedent in its scale and spread.”

It could be a long, long summer.
