damn that's crazy 

Difference is 13 degrees now. As the sun rises over the hills there is a rush of wind as it all mixes out. Very cool phenomena 

[CoastalWx]

-0.4. First time below zero this winter. See if we can tickle down more. 

[kdxken]

-4° coldest of the year.

[moneypitmike]

-6 at Pit2.

-21 at my office.  Glad it's a Saturday.

[dendrite]

Some really big differences this morning 

[Baroclinic Zone]

-9F

[VivaManchVegas]

"Best" so far. -7.  Tearing through the wood pile like it was 1999.  

My parents are freaking out in FL. I am going down there on Thursday.  Might have to pack a sweater.

-8 Home Davis, no walking the dogs this am...

[wx2fish]

Struggled to calm off until well after midnight locally. Wed and Thurs mornings were colder on my Davis. -5F

[dendrite]

Yeah we had some weak warming aloft last night too so we really needed to decouple early. Oh well…I’m not complaining. -4.3 is cold enough.

-16 at OWD. Lol. What a swamp there. 

[CoastalWx]

-1

[kdxken]

A lot of mehs because we are not setting records but compared to recent years the duration is notable.

Congrats Radarman 

That site is a mile or two south and lower down than me.  Radiates better than here.  But yeah, chilly night.  Further down in Ludlow at the Springfield Res hit -18 but I am not sure about those Accurite thermometers.  The AWOS at CEF was -15 again.

Coldest start to winter thus far through 1/30 at ORH since 2003-04. We will prob pass that season as colder over the next couple weeks as Feb 2004 warmed up. 
 

On the flip side, 2014-15 will be gaining ground in February.

-3.    Meh again

Got down to -9° at my house and there were lot’s of -5 to -10’s on local Wunder sites.  Your  elevation probably kept you from going lower.

[rimetree]

-5.4F. Coldest of the season.

[Hoth]

Seven cold miles on the books. Epic ice mustache at the end.

Honestly don’t mind running in the cold like this .. after a mile I’m always warmed up no matter how cold. 

Bigger problem is the icy sidewalks / roads

One of our pipes is leaking in the bathroom but thankfully it’s just a few drops for now. I’m probably gonna have to go out and knock some of the ice and snow off the roof that’s contributing. Can’t wait for a little thaw next week as this cold has just been brutal and relentless! The heat needs a serious breather as well.

Check around the bathroom stack.  We had a leak from cracked tar around that pipe one snowy winter.  Shoveling the snow away from the stack was a temporary fix and when things warmed up a quart can of tar made it permanent.

Reached -21 this morning but the max will be well above yesterday's windy 9.  Maybe another 40° diurnal range today; the 28th was 17/-23.
