That sounds like the "cold air mass" that's been parked over our area for a week. only today have they lifted the burn ban due to zero wind. we didn't get that cold, but it did freeze for several days, highs in the mid thirties.

cuddle up, y'all.

Warmer than it's been the past few days!

It was 62 three days ago here, and 15 this morning when I walked a mile to the Metro. Too cold.
