A cold like never before seen in October is hitting Utah on Tuesday and Wednesday as a record-breaking Arctic cold front brings freezing air straight from Canada.
Parts of the state had highs only in the 20s, which FOX 13 Chief Meteorologist Kristen Van Dyke said has never happened before on an October day.
On Wednesday, temperatures in Salt Lake City are expected to break all-time records. The coldest recorded October temperature in the city was in 1971 with 16-degree low and 35-degree high. Wednesday is expected to see a low of 11 degrees and a high of 31.
Strong winds will make temperatures feel even colder. In the Wasatch Front, the feels like temperatures are expected to be at or below 10 degrees all night starting at 9 p.m.
It is a good thing their tent like magic underwear is warm.
Algore and Greta must be there
At least they’ve got power. Big package.
Same temp profile here in Reno. Currently 9 degrees F here at the ranch.
Your altitude???
Does this mean we are all going to die today? Where’s greta, the abused eco-nut?
That is the Mormon extra sock holder. For some reason they always want extra socks. Romney carries two or three pairs around every day. Plenty of room to carry them since nothing is there to crowd them out.
4950.
Well we aren’t going to die. Wood stove is perking along nicely.
Haha. :D
If you think that is funny see the end of 5 and 9
Gloabrrrr warming
Nice.
3 degrees per thousand feet lapse rate ;-)
Yes. Nice in the Summer heat but gets old in the Winter.
It’s much warmer in Cottonwood Heights (Salt Lake County) today. Currently 20, wind chill 15.
Yesterday was January weather. Brought in the brass monkeys.
Elev. ~ 4700 ft
I don’t know about Utah, but it’s cold enough in Phoenix that my husband fussed at me for leaving a window open and our furnace actually kicked on for the first time this year.
Just a little welcome for our snowbirds.
The Arctic air mass blew through North Idaho Monday afternoon. The temps dropped 35 degrees in a few hours and we broke all-time record lows Tuesday morning at 11 F. October also set the all-time record for most October snow at 7.1 inches.
CLIMATE EMERGENCY!! We must ACT now!!
