Meteorologist. Into weather records. Soft spot for subtropical 🌀. 😻 and nature imagery, too.
Oh wow. I’m more impressed then.

It turns out even the shorter POR sites were higher in some other year, such as 2005 or 1984. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’ll check the January pressure records. I believe only eastern IA, southeast MN, and short POR sites of WI stood any chance of setting January records this morning. This is near the border of records set in 2015 and 1927 (for longer POR sites).

Probably not much. Simply having something to look at in January there is unique. Why not pay attention in case the unexpected happens? :)
