The met from MU was touting -20 to -25 wind chills on Saturday.

-25 wind chills!

I feel like Elliott at MU downplays wind almost as much as he does wintry weather. Having said that, he's already emphasizing that Saturday will feature 60mph winds...

I think it's been a good 12 days or so since it's been above freezing officially? Looking at data it appears we were in the mid to upper 30s on the 22nd of January. That's one heck of an impressive run. We'll start another little streak in the coming days, too.

GFS with a cutter-type system next Friday and then a follow up coastal BOMB 2 days later that obliterates Delmarva into the Northeast. It just misses us east but man, what a storm it would be as depicted.

Correct. My station only receives sunlight during late afternoon hours during peak sun angle season. During the winter months it's shaded 24 hours a day.

My temp is 35.3 currently. There's a wunderground station near Rheems that is at 38, most in my area are between 33 and 36.

CTP lowered my high for today from 34 to 32. At 10:31am it's 33.

I really, really need to put my personal station online. I just haven't since I got my new one. This one is right down the road from me...maybe .2 miles? I'm literally in the radius of this station: https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KPAMARIE28?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR1aUZn05v6EL1SCu83D6YWAz4KB0xPA7zBHapk7ZxcoZfWMxfMgsX9YEUY_aem_AatgGdtB3HDmy_lQiEQW3p1bDKQzlUbvSccn8VpHsQ_8zcjQ2DxBPNU21ROdUrVrozfMvldDScho9lY6LgyGK0dL It's already 31 in Maytown.

Yep, that's one degree lower than my forecast which makes total sense.

To be clear, I wasn't doubting you. I was surprised by the amount of difference in temp though. And I'm even more surprised by the discrepancy in your forecast high for today compared to mine. 8 degrees is a lot.

The sun did some damage on my south-facing yard yesterday, especially at the bottom of the pack. Almost like it was melting "bottom-up".

I actually got up to 34 yesterday. I think @mahantango#1 @canderson got warmer than I did. I'm already at 28.2 today. (CTP has me reaching 34) I got home from Florida last Wednesday. Got home and spent time widening the driveway and in process got a good bit of snow on my floormat. That was on Wednesday. Yesterday it finally melted after sitting there for 5 days. The past couple of weeks have been what I dream of going into every winter. I just love the landscape. Also, I'm really intrigued for next weekend. Way out there still but it seems like there's a lot to be interested in. Maybe the thing I'm liking most is the advertised amount of QPF...if only that can translate to white gold; well, a lot of us would probably stop and give the winter an A right then and there.

My lowest temp was 20.3 at 10:54pm. 24.4 currently.

At 3pm my temperature at home was 32.8, making it the first time above freezing since January 23rd.

Yesterday's high of 62 in Great Falls, Montana was 4 degrees higher than the 58 recorded in Key West, Florida. Many areas in Miami-Dade experienced a hard freeze the past 2 nights. At Walt Disney World, the dancing fountains at Epcot were frozen over for the first time since the park opened in 1982.

People in North Carolina seem bewildered that they lost so much of their snowpack on a 30 degree day. Full sun + powder snow = no chance of lasting. So grateful for all of the ice in our pack. That's what's maintaining our landscape.

Yeah I think so. And with the breeze and some clouds my temp is off to the races. I was 7.3 at 7pm. Currently it's 13.6.

74,575 at Beaver Stadium this afternoon. Not too shabby for a college hockey game in 15 degree weather.

@Blizzard of 93 it's going to snow again and probably sooner than later. Maybe a small event or two over the next couple of weeks before a window for something bigger opens around mid February.

I actually think tonight is my best chance of getting close to 0. I'm already down to 15.4 after a high of 20.7. Give me several hours of clear skies this evening and that might do the trick.

Good point! The only (and final) thing I'll had to this week's temps - I was sitting in Key West this past Sunday looking at highs of 16, 14 and 12 for Thursday through today here. I've actually hit at least 20 on all 3 of those days. 20 just doesn't seem nearly as extreme as a high of 12.

Have to keep an eye on the river. If we were to get a big warmup and/or a lot of rain we're going to look out for ice jams.

My low was 6.6. As I mentioned yesterday morning, I was concerned about cloud over overnight. It's been a very cold week. Sub-freezing temps wall to wall. And yet despite the fresh snow cover from last Sunday's storm this week fell quite short of modeled low temps here. My temp never fell below 5 degrees. That's at least a double digit departure about what at least some models indicated. I think it was @CarlislePaWx who shared an image last week showing MDT getting down to -19 this morning.

Not sure I've seen this before. NWS Morhead City has issued a Shelter In Place Warning for the Outer Banks.
