Yesterday at Peter's Sink (a mountain hollow between Logan and Bear Lake in N.E. Utah) the automated weather station recorded 43.6 degrees. BELOW ZERO.
Peter's Sink is long known as being the coldest place in Utah. Yesterday's reading set an all-time low for the month of October, but temps there have hit -69 as recently as 1985. That's the second lowest temp ever in the Continental US.

That's chilly for October. But don't worry global warming is going to kick in any minute and kill all the polar bears and sink Hawaii. .

Record low here last night. 19 degrees for the coldest Oct 30th in our local recorded history for that date.

Or of my great regrets in life is that I didn't do more in my youth to bring on global warming.

-40F ambient is the coldest it got here last winter.

I am so glad I left Calgary in 2009 after five winters there...We would head to our place in north Idaho just sixty miles south of BC to warm up.

Cold air loves holes. I wonder how much warmer it was 1000' higher. 60 or 80 degrees would not be surprising .
