KBFD down to -4ºF, couple stations in that general area down to -8ºF. CTPs mid evening near term update addressed the temps. Def a good night for some surprise low temps if we decouple and stay clear.

 

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
TEMPS ARE DROPPING AFTER SUNSET AND WITH THE COLD/DRY AIR AND
DECENT SNOW PACK. A FEW LOCAL OBS HERE AND THERE HAVE ALREADY GONE
BELOW ZERO IN THE NORTH...AND THV HAS DROPPED 7F AND SEG 6F IN
JUST ONE HOUR. WHILE THOSE ARE THE DRASTIC END OF THINGS...IT
SHOWS THAT IT IS OUTRIGHT IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THE MICRO CLIMATE OF
ONE BACKYARD VS. ANOTHER CORRECT. WITH AN EYE TOWARD THE RECENT
COLD TRENDS AND RULES OF THUMB DEALING WITH COLD CLEAR DRY CALM
NIGHTS...HAVE LOWERED HOURLY TEMPS IN THE FIRST FEW HOURS OF THE
NIGHT...BUT KEPT THE IDEA OF LEVELING THEM OFF LATER. SOME MID
CLOUD WORKS IN FROM MI/OH ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SFC RIDGE.
THE RIDGE SHOULD BE OFF TO THE EAST BY 2-3AM LOCAL...AND WINDS
OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE WEST WILL BE SOUTHERLY. COLD.

NOTE THAT THE PROJECTED MIN AT MDT IS RIGHT AT OR SLIGHTLY BELOW
THE RECORD MIN FOR THE 4TH /3F IN 1918/. DOUBT THAT IPT WILL SET A
RECORD WITH -12F THE RECORD THERE - IN 1981. THAT STAT ALONE SHOWS
THE DIFFERENCES YOU CAN SEE IN MICRO CLIMATE. APPARENTLY...MDT
WAS NOT BELOW 4F IN 1981.

must be your location. I am at Walgreens on 309temp is zero. To 1 above. At my house in Hanover we were at -3 what part of the city are you in?

I'm basically a few blocks from Hanover Township. Seems to be what's happening is we get a quick leg down (now we just dropped to 3.4), and then it holds steady or even rises a couple ticks.
