East Dubzz Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 That would mean about 386 hours below zero this winter! And this next graphic is pretty nuts too for a majority of the U.S.: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Dubzz Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Dubuque is at 1 degree currently, struggling to even get above 0. That's just crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 ORD will probably get out of the single digits today. Sitting at 9F. Too much open ground with the snow melt has kept it warmer in urban areas. This bitter blast def has some punch. Probably the coldest night remaining of the season will be tonight.

East Dubzz Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Currently 7 degrees here and starting to drop fast. About 5 degrees warmer than the Dubuque airport, and other observations around me confirm that mine is accurate. This is why I'm glad I have this weather station now, will be nice to report my own stuff instead of the Dubuque airport's.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of my town is in a valley, but I live on the top of a hill so my house isn't as much. Kind of funny, though, because right after I said the temps were rising, they started dropping again.

Kind of funny, though, because right after I said the temps were rising, they started dropping again. Down to -4. I'm sure a slight wind is playing with the temps. The amount of frozen water pipes I've seen in the last three days has been pretty crazy. Never seen a frozen water main burst so late in the season before.
