You may be starting to pine for a return to the hottest year evah! A recent data dump from the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration confirmed that January 2025 was in the running for one of the coldest Virginia January average temperatures in more than a century.  The graph above captured on their tracking website is clear, and the ranking table the search also creates shows only 19 years out of more than 130 tracked Januarys were colder. Too soon to say the temperature spikes in 2023 and 2024, which were real, will be followed by more normal temps. But that is what weather does, it varies. Were January among the warmest the alarmist media would have been all over this, but the unusual cold is not what they are being paid to report. Bacon’s Rebellion again fills the gap.
