I didn’t get a chance to blog last Friday because of the cold weather keeping things in the weather office, fairly busy, but let’s take a glance back at that historic day.
On Friday, January 16, we started the day at -13 degrees. Again, that’s 13 degrees below zero! That was the coldest temperature reported at Cleveland since January 19, 1994 when the all time record coldest temperature of -20 degrees was recorded. However, it didn’t even break a record for that day, amazingly. That record was set in 1977 when we bottomed out at -15. Needless to say, this is typically our statistically coldest time of the year. By the way, we did recover to 2 degrees for a high on Friday.
Hey, this week we may actually get ABOVE the freezing mark. Heat wave, here we come. 34 is my forecast high for Thursday.
Wishing for warmer weather, I’m Meteorologist Jason Nicholas.
