Christmases warm and cold

Merry Christmas, Wichita!

As Christmases go, this one is shaping up to be right along the norms for the city. A high in the 40s is right in line for this time of year, based on historical data.

Yes, it’s not a white Christmas, but only about 10 percent of Wichita Christmases are.

As you might expect – this being Kansas and all – the temperature extremes for Dec. 25 are pretty substantial. The record high is 65, set in 1960. The record low, on the other hand, is -6, set in 1983.
