...TECHNICALITY EXPECTED TO PREVENT ALL TIME RECORD COLD HIGHS
FROM BEING BROKEN MONDAY...
WHILE MONDAYS DAYTIME HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO BE
BRUTALLY COLD AND PROBABLY COLDER THAN THE DAILY ALL-TIME RECORD
COLD HIGHS...IT LOOKS UNLIKELY THAT THE ALL-TIME DAILY RECORD COLD
HIGHS WILL BE BROKEN. THE TECHNICALITY THAT LOOKS LIKELY TO
PREVENT MONDAY FROM BREAKING THE COLDEST DAILY HIGH TEMPERATURE
EVER IS THE MIDNIGHT TEMPERATURES SUNDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY
MORNING. THE MIDNIGHT TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY TO BE THE DAILY
HIGHS MONDAY AND ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE BELOW THE ALL-TIME DAILY
COLD HIGH TEMPERATURE RECORDS. DESPITE LIKELY FALLING SHORT OF THE
ALL-TIME DAILY RECORD COLD HIGHS...MONDAY WILL GO DOWN AS ONE OF
THE COLDEST DAYS ON RECORD. HERE IS A RANKING OF THE COLDEST NOON
TEMPERATURES ON RECORD DATING BACK TO THE 1929-30 WINTERS IN
CHICAGO AND ROCKFORD.

TOBS, or not to BS, that is the question.
RANKING OF THE COLDEST NOON TEMPERATURES ON RECORD DATING BACK TO THE 1929-30… Oh I know, it’s because we’ve had a century of runaway hockey stick warming that we are having record cold across the country. Yeah, things have gone so hot that it has gone off the top of the chart and has to start again from the bottom. Right now, a few minutes from noon, windchill is -46°F near Chicago: http://vortex.plymouth.edu/uschill.gif
Once again. Read this.
