A Look Back at 2007

When it comes to the weather of 2007, two words can sum up the year for North Carolina -- warm and dry. We broke several record highs this summer including tying the all time record high of 105 at RDU. A warm 2007 was the story for the entire U.S. as well. In fact, 2007 will likely go down in the top 10 warmest years on record.

Let's hope 2008 will bring wetter weather, although the first week of the year should be dry.

Happy New Year from everyone at News 14 Carolina!
