-19 here at the house. Just might be hitting the bottom now. Since this is an advection cold the normal low spots on my drive in didn’t bottom out in the -20s

Almost in a fog / haze out by me. Looked like a big storm cloud off in the distance and now that it rolled in it feels like it’s on the ground. Hard to explain and not sure if it’s something I’ve experienced before. I’m guessing it’s from the cold

Big winner this morning is Cook arpt on the N side of the Iron Range. -33 at 0655 to -38 at 0735. Winds went calm. -20's on the shore to -30's inland. Temps would have been colder except for the wind. Cook is the exception with my spot checking. Tomorrow a.m. should be calm across the board.

Coldest windchill at MSP was -48 overnight.

Morning lows across MN/WI were top 3-5 with some falling just short. Very significant cold wave. We shall see how the low max's pan out today.

Gonna suck when they have to make some of that up. Back in the day, we had a bad year, and Spring vacation got cut short. Schools are required to have so many days in a year. Unless they have an online set up that qualifies.
