Cougars with pickles?

ART went briefly calm and hit -33°. If the region was theoretically calm under this airmass we’d be in the -30s and -40s. (Up here with pack anyway)

Damn. Did it get any or was it trying to find a way in? Haven’t seen one here yet, but obviously they’re around.

Get the sun on the coop and it’ll get up to 35-40 in there

I can report all of the chickens are alive albeit very miserable.

I use mesowest, but you just have to know the limitations of the 5-min frequency obs vs the full observation at the hourly METAR time (usually :51 to :54 after the hour). 12z gives the 6hr max/min and DXR had -5. They’re still around that temp so we may need to wait until 18z to see if they sneak a -6 in. But locals here have been complaining about the DXR readings based on obs around it so maybe they’re reading too warm anyway. https://mesowest.utah.edu/cgi-bin/droman/meso_base_dyn.cgi?stn=Kdxr&unit=0&timetype=LOCAL

-17.2 Guess we aren’t done yet

Yup. HVN hit -3. BDR -4

Besides the actual values, the Euro had the mins closer to 12z vs the other guidance. Pretty good performance by it.

We’ve been down this road before, but it isn’t really -2.2. It’s -2 or -3. And given how long they were at -19C they probably snuck a -3 in there.

This may do it

BDR hit -4. Probably a -3 at HVN

Would be nice, but probably not. I don’t think they saw much of a dent after 2/2016 and we’ve seen those temps they have in the last 5 years yet a lot of those invasive bugs have still been creeping up to NNE. Those parrots in CT may be screwed though.

Looks like -47° is it for MWN.

-17° This can leave now

-15.3° -SN

Colder than ORH!

Noticeably lighter winds in the last half hour. Spitting some flakes again. -14.5

ORH -4F

-109 on the automated equipment

I think it was filmed an hour or so ago.

MWN on CNN right now

The cold in NNE tonight is on another level. Nothing tolerable about it.
