RCNYILWX Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 -9° at Sparta. -8° at Burlington, WI -1.4° here. 6° at Northerly Island Based on trends tonight, Weds night will really tank. 12z Canadian had -10 to -15 along/west of the Fox River in IL and WI and that could be conservative in a few spots if there are no cloud cover issues toward Thursday morning.

cyclone77 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Last winter we didn't drop below zero until Jan 22, and that was only at -2. The coldest temp of the season last winter was -3 on Feb 1st. Tonight we've already been as low as -5, with the potential to go down a few degrees over the next hour or two. Thu morning may be even colder than tonight. We're definitely off to a much colder start to winter to be sure this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 The big tornado outbreak of 3 weeks ago seems like a distant memory with this cold weather. It would take a while to figure out but I wonder how often any place in this region has had tornadoes and below zero temperatures less than a month apart.

Yeah it's gotta be rare to go from a PDS tornado watch/tornado outbreak to subzero temps in such a short time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbertfly Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I know it's probably getting overstated.....but what a difference a year makes....

nwohweather Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Wow doesn't look like we'll break freezing at all in the next week, actually it should stay below 20 for most of it.
