(cross-posted from general Dec thread) ... to give an idea of climate extremes at this point, current temps in lower MI are 5-10 F so this is a very chilly air mass coming in behind the snow ... I imagine the urban heat island will prevent the 1874 records from being surpassed but 24/12 would not surprise me as temp Sunday afternoon low Monday. It may still be warmer at 0100h Sunday to bump up that day's max, then Monday could see later warm advection spoiling another very low max. But these low max values probably indicate the coldest it has been in the daytime hours.

As you'll know, 1917 wasn't done by any means with this cold and snowy outbreak, all-time records fell 29th to 31st and into early Jan 1918 too.

The same can be said for 1933. And 1874 was followed by possibly the harshest winter of all, lots of record cold in Feb-Mar 1875.
