Real Palm tree, last day uncovered November 24th

A winter weather storm system spread arctic air behind it and gave us our first taste of January this weekend. The Temperature fell quickly from 32.F at my location Wednesday Night, to middle 6.F with in hours of the passing of the cold front. Daytime highs were in the 30s on Thanksgiving Day, but that was at taken midnight just before the cold front passed. Actual highs during the daylight hours were in the low to mid teens, with wind chills Thursday as cold as -15.F. Local news stations said it was the coldest Thanksgiving we’ve had in 17 years!
