It turns out 2012 was one of the hottest on record in the Buckeye state in several of the Ohio cities.

Columbus Ohio had an average temperature of 56 degrees in 2012.

Some cities like Dayton, Toledo and Cincinnati all fell short of breaking their records. It still became among the five hottest years those cities have posted.

Jeffrey Rogers is the state climatologist and says more and more evidence points to having a factor on climate change for the spiking temperatures.
