But by January, temperatures dived.
However, earlier this week parts of Scotland saw frost and sub-zero temperatures, and in Carrbridge, Inverness, temperatures dived to -3.1C on Tuesday night.
The other parameters studied such as the water temperature, dive profile, hyperoxic exposure, or anthropometric data were not associated with the increase in extravascular lung water after the dive.
Instead of gentle transitions -- easing from overcoat to jacket to shirtsleeves -- the temperature swoops and dives like a phoebe feeding on the wing.
Perhaps the best known example in New York is the delicious frothy soup that appears at Pegu Club in SoHo every holiday season as soon as the temperature takes a dive.
We were in the middle of a brutal cold snap last week, just like the winters of old, with temperatures diving into the single digits and winds as sharp and merciless as a razor slicing through the city's streets.
The tags recorded each bird's position, how deep it dived in the ocean when feeding, and the temperature of surface water just before the dive.
The other environmental stressors investigated such as the temperature of the water, the dive profile, and the hyperoxic exposure were not significantly related to the increase in ULC number assessed by chest ultrasonography.
There was also a significant relationship between the daily maximum temperature and the daily temperature range, indicating that the sharks dove through a greater temperature range when they were warmer (p<0.000, r2 = 0.18, n = 775).
Ever so methodically, Mattingly is dipping his toes back into the baseball pool to gauge the temperature and see if he wants to dive in.
