Deep Freeze Recap: Coldest Temperatures of the Century for Some

St. Louis

Persistent winds pushed wind chills into life-threatening territory, reaching 40 below to 60 below zero across a large swath of the Midwest. The National Weather Service in Wilmington, Ohio, said the wind chills were the coldest observed in central and southwest Ohio since 1994.

Records Broken... and Not Broken

On Tuesday, more than 50 primary weather observation sites (mostly in major cities) recorded record lows for the date. A few major cities, including Atlanta and Indianapolis, recorded their lowest temperatures since the mid-1990s. A few more cities, including Toledo, Ohio (1 degree Tuesday) and Madison, Wis. (9 degrees below zero Monday) recorded their lowest daytime highs since the 1990s.
