Is that -52 deg. with or without wind? New Years Day 1969 it was -52 deg. in Great Falls, MT, and there was NO wind! Just remember "30, 30 and 30" if you go outside! (Thirty below, with a 30 mph wind, exposed flesh freezes in 30 seconds! :o

We are enjoying the Apache Junction sunshine right now, but our son, Rufus Edgar, in in Rochester Mn.

Since it is his birthday, he boiled a cup of water and tossed it up in the frigid air out the back door and made a mini snowfall. :)

Montana weather records -

 

The coldest temperature ever recorded in the lower 48 states was -70 degrees

at Rogers Pass, Montana north of Helena, on January 20, 1954. The warmest

temperature ever recorded in Montana was 117 degrees at Glendive, July 20,

1893, and at Medicine Lake, on July 5, 1937. Combined with the -70 degrees

Fahrenheit at Roger's Pass in 1954, this makes the all-time temperature range

recorded in Montana 187 degrees. This is the most extreme temperature range

ever experienced in any of the 50 states.

 

 

The greatest temperature change in 24 hours occurred in Loma (50 miles

northeast of Great Falls) on January 15, 1972. The temperature rose exactly

103 degrees, from -54 degrees Fahrenheit to 49 degrees. This is the world

record for a 24 hour temperature change.

 

 

The greatest temperature change in 12 hours happened on December 14,

1924. The temperature at Fairfield, Montana (30 miles west of Great Falls),

dropped from 63 degrees Fahrenheit to -21 degrees at midnight. This 84

degree change in 12 hours stands as the greatest 12-hour temperature \

change ever recorded in the United States.


The temperature at the Great Falls International Airport on January
11, 1980, rose from -32 degrees Fahrenheit to 15 degrees in seven
minutes when Chinook winds eroded an Arctic air mass. The temperature
rose 47 degrees in just seven minutes, making it the record for the
most rapid temperature change ever registered in the United States.
