The attached NOAA news release should be of interest to Climatologists and meteorologists and all interested in the environment.
As the attached document states...

The average temperature across both the contiguous U.S. and the globe during climatological winter (December 2007-February 2008) was the coolest since 2001, according to scientists at NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C.
