1/8- Insane Cold

Good Thursday all-

Well, my house made it down to -4 this morning, which is pretty rare in this region and certainly is the coldest weather we've experienced this year. Now that we're through the brutal cold, let's focus on an accumulating snow tomorrow in association with a clipper system. I think that, whatever you got on Monday, you can double that or so (1-3" statewide seems about right at the moment). The storm will come in the morning hours, so there is a 40% chance of getting a school delay tomorrow. Moving forward, the weekend looks dry, while next week looks rather snowy- worth keeping an eye on for sure. Otherwise, no significant forecast changes from yesterday, and everything seems on track (Highs in the teens today and twenties until Monday or so).

Today in weather history- January 8, 2015- Today's cold is severe enough to merit a 'weather history' segment of its' own here, and I won't take away it's glory. I can't remember the last time we had 100+ school delays because of the cold and wind chills between -15 and -20. As odd as it is to say, enjoy this as we may not experience it again for a few good years.
