Our previous record low the house thermometer ever recorded was -20.
Beat that this morning, with -22.0 (actually has dropped to -23.3 at 7:30am)
The good news is that the forecast sunny and will warm up rapidly, before yet another bitter cold night.
Another no ski day for me. The morning Whitefish Mountain ski report:
***We have a 5:00 AM temperature at the Summit of -20 degrees, gusts up to 24mph and a wind chill of -45. We will only be running lower mountain lifts today (Chairs 2, 3, 6, 9 and the Big Easy carpet). Night skiing tonight will be canceled as well.*** It's day 6 of cold temperatures and round two of the coldest. I think all you can do is laugh, cozy up at home, sharpen your edges and do that thing you needed to do... call your grandma? It's a great reminder that in the end, the mountains and mother nature are in charge of the show. For the LOWER mountain we have a forecasted */*high*/ of 6 degrees and wind chills temperatures as low as *-37*, with moderate winds and sunny skies. *For those that head out on the hill today, be sure to wear many insulating layers, keep all exposed skin covered, and keep in mind it's always a good idea to *ski and ride with a partner.*
