And nearly 3 to 1 in the last 30 days, and over 2 to 1 in 2014

From NOAA/NCDC: U.S. Records Summary

The summaries below list the number of records broken for several recent periods is summarized in this table and updated daily. Due to late-arriving data, the number of recent records is likely underrepresented in all categories, but the ratio of records (warm to cold, for example) should be a fairly strong estimate of a final outcome. There are many more precipitation stations than temperature stations, so the raw number of precipitation records will likely exceed the number of temperature records in most climatic situations.

See the table:

Unfortunately, it seems NOAA’s map visualization of the record is broken.

The tab “View Selected Records” fails to produce any data, no matter what the setting. I’ve sent a note out tot he NCDC webmaster.
