California Hottest Winter on Record.
East Coast...about average.
California Just Had Its Warmest Winter on Record
By Tim McDonnell Mar. 13, 2014
<snip>
The map above ranks every state's winter temperature average relative to its own historical record low (in other words, relative to itself and not to other states). Low numbers indicate that the state was unusually cold; higher numbers mean it was exceptionally warm. As you can see, the Midwest was much colder than average, while the West was hotter than average (despite a season-long kerfluffle about polar vortexes, the East Coast wasn't exceptionally cold, after all).
