-15.6ËšC at Bellingham, ties the mark they reached in Dec 2021.
It's called clown range for a reason.

First <-10c temp in January at YVR since 2004. At least this pathetic streak is over now... and who would have thought during a strong El Nino. :lol:
I think YXX went from Jan ‘12 - Jan ‘20 without a temp < or = -10. It’s now occurred in Dec ‘21, Dec ‘22, Jan ‘24. Has a 1930’s feel to it now: extremely hot, cold, and dry.

-15.5 C when I left for work this morning. I'm curious when the last time Chilliwack's temp was this low? Not in my lifetime that I can recall.

-12.9c at YVR currently.

Looks like a new record?

:think:

Edit. Just noticed the records on the EC forecast page only go to 2013. So maybe not?

Stepped outside and aside from the cold there's a great predawn view of the mountains.

That's not Edmonton, you got baited. I literally just checked 5 minutes before your post.

Edit: I was looking at the city, Edmonton has an International Airport forecast because it's technically in Leduc, outside the city proper.

-15, windchill -24 and humidity 42% at the valley floor, so I'm thinking you're right East Whackerman, there might be some snow on top of your station.....

Wind has died down a bit here the last little while but might pick up again I'm assuming?
