The warmest Valentines Day in the US occurred 100 years ago in 1921.
But this year, the US is looking at record cold.

The average daily maximum temperature in the US during 1921 was the second highest on record.
The percent of warm days in the US was highest on record in 1921. The two least warm years of past century were 2018 and 2019.

Pueblo, Colorado was largely wiped out by a flood during June, 1921. Much of Kansas suffered damage, and there was flooding on the Pecos River in New Mexico and Texas.

It is estimated that 1,500 people in Pueblo, Colorado died during that flood.
It was the hottest year on record in Texas.
