Record warmest highs for this time of year tend to be in the lower 80s. Although we didn't knock a record, we still recieved much above average temperatures.

Saturday was also the first 100% sunshine in Grand Rapids since Oct 4. One hundred percent sunshine means that the sunshine counter at the National Weather Service counted sunshine the entire day.
