Quoting 
<https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/logging.html#logging.Logger.setLevel>

"""
Logger.setLevel(lvl)
Sets the threshold for this logger to lvl. Logging messages which are less 
severe than lvl will be ignored.
"""

INFO is both below WARNING and ERROR. If you add

logger.warn("whatever")

to your code 'whatever' will disappear from your log when you switch the 
level from WARNING to ERROR.
