What a difference a year makes. Last year, Louisville recorded its warmest March ever at an average of 59.6 degrees (70.5 / 48.6).
This year, as of the 18th, the average temperature has been 41.2 degrees (49.5 / 33.0). At this time, we still do not qualify for top ten status for coldest March ever. The tenth place average is 40.0 degrees.
However, looking at medium-range forecasts, there is a likely chance we will continue to see below-average temperatures for the rest of the month.
In fact, based on those forecasts, I'm already projecting a finish in the bottom half of the top ten list. For that to happen, our average temperature would have to be in a range of 39.0 and 40.0 degrees, or 6th through 10th place.
I think this is a conservative projection. In other words, we could be looking at a colder scenario, which could vault us as high as 3rd place (38.5 degree average).
For the record, pun intended, the first and second coldest March ever were 1960's 32.5 average and 1947's 37.1 average.
