ANOTHER ROUND OF BITTER COLD

This morning (Jan 30) the temperature bottomed out at -3° at home, and -6° at work. Despite mostly sunny skies thoughout the day, the temperature struggled to reach the mid-teens. Since late afternoon, the temperature has stayed just below zero, falling to -2° a couple of times (as of 1am, it is -1°).

The last time we were above the freezing mark was the early morning hours of Jan 22 (the high of 33° that day occurred around 1:30am). To find a day with a temperature of more than 34°, you have to go back to Jan 14, when it was a balmy 38°.

Update on Monday (Feb 2) — the low at home on Saturday (Jan 31) was -4° at home and -6° at work. It warmed up quite a bit on Sunday (Feb 1), topping out at almost 30°.
