The temperature at Hancock International Airport in Syracuse, New York, hit 2 below zero (-18.9C) this morning.
The record for Dec. 16 had been minus 1, set in 1917.

Has anyone else noticed – and been amused by – the warmist weenies making screaming headlines when a new *warm* record is set (sometimes by a tenth of a degree, which is within calibration errors therefore meaningless) but they IGNORE cold records? I remember hearing one explaining away multiple new cold records of several degrees lower as “slightly cooler than normal”. Talk about “fake news!”
