We present a simple, pedagogical introduction to the statistics of extremevalues. Motivated by a string of record high temperatures in December 1998, weconsider the distribution, averages and lifetimes for a simplified model ofsuch ``records.'' Our ``data'' are sequences of independent random numbers allof which are generated from the same probability distribution. A remarkableuniversality emerges: a number of results, including the lifetime histogram,are universal, that is, independent of the underlying distribution.Comment: 14 pages, 3 figures.
