A RECORD LOW TEMPERATURE OF -28 DEGREES WAS SET AT CARIBOU ME YESTERDAY.
THIS BREAKS THE OLD RECORD OF -20 SET IN 1968
Unfortunately my family got to experience this!
But since people in my area are almost all in bed when the lows are recorded, I thought the more impressive figure was a HIGH temperature of -15 on Thursday, since that was the second-lowest high temperature we have ever recorded. And unfortunately, it came during the time of day when most of us had to be out in it.
But we're kind of used to it.
A foot of snow here and still falling hard. Coupled with the upcoming cold plus expected wind, it's wicked. I can barely see across my road.
Takes a lot to keep me home but tomorrow's commute will be about 80 miles round-trip. Schools and government buildings will be closed and people are being asked not to drive. Guess I get the day off!

Many years we would get 20s once or twice in Daytona, I guess Orlando is a little warmer.
From 1981 to 2010, 12 (or 40%) of the years reached 28 F or below at KMCO, using NWS Melbourne, FL (1. "First/Last Dates"; 2. "Orlando Area"; 3. "Min temp <= 28 F"; 4. "1981 to 2010"). I would reckon the long-term (since 1892) average is less than that
wow haha the midwest really got screwed by this system! here in new england we made out pretty well considering
