Corrections

corrected

Today was the first day of the winter, but the temperature was so high. It was 23 degrees.

The weather forecast said that the high temperature for tomorrow will be 14 degrees. The temperature gap between today and tomorrow (or between these two days) is so large, this weather will cause a cold. Please remember to put on more clothes.
