Early spring and late fall heat records I'd say. It's difficult to reach 34-35 C in summer, and the cold records are probably out of reach, although many December month and cold records were beaten in 2010.
So, probably a 13 C December day and a 16 C November day is coming in the next few years. Also 22 C in October is definitely not out of the question!
Life has shown that records are broken in Longyearbyen, in London, in Shijiazhuang or in Naryan-mar or wherever but not here. So the answer would be- not one. Cold records are even more hard to broke, no wonder that they are talking about some sort of climate warming. Maybe we can expect something about the precipitation records but those are not interesting. In theory, probably autumn and spring high records are most realistic, I mean to record some 20c in March, 24c in October- something like that. April and May records would be not that hard to broke either.
The one I'm keeping an eye on right now lol, no September day has ever been above 26.5C here since Bingley weather station was set up in 1973, and currently it's 25.9C at 3 pm (I only get hourly figures until the final high is reported at the end of the day).
We did it 26.9C was the final score, so the warmest September day here since records began, to go with the warmest September night on record we had last week.
We also had 9.6 mm in one hour and 14.4 mm in two hours in a storm this evening as well; might not be much to many of you but that's unusually intense rainfall for us. A very good day for weather enthusiasts.
Eight of our monthly daytime high temperature records have been set since 2011 (four of them last year alone) so none of them look that safe. Theoretically the February record of 14.7C is the most vulnerable since it was recorded on the 13th, so if we get a warm spell later on in the month we don't even need perfect synoptics to beat it.
I should also mention, the record high minimum was broken for August this year, with a low of 13.5°C. Always thought that would he an easy one, July's is 12.8°C. Probably could he broken again, considering September's is 18°C, and June's is 14.7°C.
The way things are going, in most places the record high temperatures are the ones that are in danger.
Lexington's record high of 108F will be hard to break. There have been 5 days since records began that we exceeded 105F, and all of them occurred within a single week in July 1936.

What I find odd is that July 1936 was extremely hot in the middle of the country, but near normal in North Carolina. Back in NC the easiest record to break is probably the all-time record high of 105, because it's been reached six times in three different months. I don't know about Oklahoma.
There were places that the month averaged 20 C below normal

I think I'd call this the easiest to break.
