The last 70 degree day in Memphis was November 15, 2009, or 102 days ago. This streak puts the city in the top 10 for consecutive number of days below 70 and the longest such stretch in 74 years. Listed below are the top ten longest stretches since records began in 1875. This winter season now ranks 9th in the list. (By the way, I fully expect this streak to continue for some time, as there are no signs of a pattern shift that will support 70 degree weather anywhere in the near term.)
