On February 4, 1996, in Couderay, Wisconsin, the temperature fell to a bitter cold -55°F (-48°C), the coldest temperature ever recorded in Wisconsin. Couderay is near Hayward, if that means anything to you.
The other night, with no snow in the forecast, I complained about the lack of snow. Last night we got two inches. It snowed again a bit tonight. Kinda nice.
