I would say yes, even if after sunset. The wind and sun combo has melted and evaporated all the surfaces in my neighborhood streets and on HWY 29 in Lawrenceville. I feel confident in saying the whole area by this point unless you are in far NE Georgia, is safe to travel.

Interesting!

16/4 wind chill is 9. Airport is 19/7 with a wind chill of 9 degrees. NWS is saying 15 for the low and TWC is saying 14. I feel like TWC is gonna be more right. Wouldn’t be surprised if we got closer to 10 in the morning if we can get these winds to ease up a little more. Then again, maybe it doesn’t matter that much, I wasn’t expecting us to be in the teens before midnight.

[Ron Burgundy]

[J.C.]

11.5

 

[cyclogent]

Low of 9, with a gorgeous thick feathery frost. A bit of a rare treat to see a decent frost with these temperatures as it's usually too dry or windy.

 

[BIG FROSTY]

Low of 6.7

 

[Makeitsnow]

11.8 at my local...

 

[Rain Cold]

A clearer look at the snow and sleet covered mid-Atlantic and Appalachians:

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Lowest I saw on my car thermometer was 16...

I had something strange occur while getting ready to drive. My brake acted as if it was frozen. I could still push down enough to start the car and the brakes were fine afterwards, but it was odd.

 

[Triplephase93]

Got down to 8 with a thick frost this morning.

 

[Brent9]

Got down to 5.7 here in western York county sc

 

[BullCityWx]

1/25/26 was the fourth coldest mean air temp day for that date since 1945.

 

[Chazwin]

Just out of curiosity, does anyone have the temperature anomaly map for January to date. I’m interested to see if we end up below average again

Just the raw data from NOAA. With 4 days left in the month and probably looking at -8 to -10 anomalies each day I'm guessing we'll wind up around 2F below average for the month. Every month since August has been below climo average for us.

August: -3.6F
September: -0.7F
October: -2.6F
November: -0.1F
December: -3.6F
January: -1.0 to date
