Day 8.044: High lower?
The sad thing is I'm enough of a weather geek these days to understand how it can be 30°F with today's high being only 21°F.
It's because it's the daytime high - and daytime doesn't start until dawn. Still, it's quite strange for it to be warmer before the sun comes up than after. As it happens, the temperature never stopped falling and now it's 1°F and apparently feels like -18°F thanks to the 14 mph wind. According to the forecast, by the time I get up to run tomorrow morning it will be -13°F but, thanks to the wind having dropped it will only feel like -20°F (-29°C) - so that's OK then.
