  1. MSP only dropped to -9 overnight. We should pop above zero today after ~65-70 hours below zero.
  2. Four instances on the non-hourly 5min obs.
  3. Minneapolis had a high of -9 today.
  4. Coldest windchill at MSP was -48 overnight.
  5. -21 Coldest morning at MSP since January 2019
  6. There’s now 16.5” of ice on Lake Nokomis. The U.S. Pond Hockey Championships were supposed to kick off today but are postponed due to the cold. Not my photo but here is a Zamboni getting the numerous rinks ready in the snow yesterday.
  7. Windchill values have reached -40 here
  8. The further north track of this winter storm will allow a thick layer of cloud cover to build in throughout the night that will keep us much warmer than we thought 2 or 3 days ago. Lows will be in the -10Fs but with no wind we`ll just be uncomfortably cold versus dangerously cold
  9. The sun sets and it’s -6 with a WC of -31. Tundra vibes
  10. MSP fell below zero at 3:45pm dropping to -2 with WNW winds at 25 gusting to 37. Significant drifting over the road on the east side of the lake in my neighborhood.
  11. Five day total of 39.1” in Minneapolis. Must have been a wild week. https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/climate/journal/double-header-snowstorms-january-1982.html#:~:text=On Wednesday%2C January 20%2C 1982,fell on the January 22nd.
  12. Was out in Colorado 1/8-1/15, got blessed with 10” of powder on day 1, but it’s historically bad out there. Definitely the worst season on record. People throw out 76/77 but they didn’t have snowmaking to supplement things back then. Fire season will be lit. (Pun intended)
  13. Just under an inch of fresh snow today should help, although it’s blowing all around. Definitely expecting the coldest temps here since January 2019 when MSP had a daily hi/lo of -13/-28. I’ll be satisfied if we can get to -20 this go around. Outlying areas should have little trouble achieving that.
  14. Gonna be some nice polar cold here for sure but we’d probably really bottom out if the snowpack was deeper. ~4” otg imby
  15. -5 this morning, nothing to write home about so far.
  16. Looks like the CME has arrived at G4 levels. I’ll step outside once it gets dark. Feeling pretty blessed to have caught vivid light shows in my backyard multiple times this solar cycle.
  17. I’m following things closely hoping to get the chance to walk into the sea caves this year if the ice is thick enough.
  18. Sad the Bears season came to an end but if you’d have told me in early September they’d win the division, beat the Packers in the playoffs and take the Rams to overtime I’d have laughed at you. Successful season, now we are doomed with a first place schedule next year. All likable teams left in the playoffs
  19. The GFS keeps Minneapolis below zero for ~72hrs next weekend. Good stuff.
  20. -3F for the overnight low. Light pixie dust snow now, should pick up around the lunch hour.
