It looks like your original data may be tab seperated, if that is the case
then just use read.delim or use sep='\t' in read.table or scan.
I think that was only half the problem. If you do that, you end up with
one column containing both City and State, comma-separated.

Assuming that the only problem is the blank in the city names, here is
one way of doing it:
inFile - textConnection(City State JanTemp Lat Long
+ Mobile, AL 44 31.288.5

+ Phoenix, AZ 35 33.6112.5
