Back in the deep freeze (updated)

February 28 is end of the meteorological winter so the records are:

• Coldest winter in 35 years.
• 9th coldest winter on record. 
• 4th coldest February

 

This is crazy. The deep cold has returned with a vengeance. The forecast is for below zero mornings through the weekend.

Apparently we are approaching the 4th highest number of below zero temps in history.
The big problem now are the roads. Because of these extraordinarily cold days, the ice and compacted snow are permanently stuck to the road. Driving conditions are awful.
