A few early morning temperatures

zero at Anaktuvuk, Alaska, wind chill 12 below
30 on Mount Washington, New Hampshire with freezing fog
15 below zero at Alert with floating ice crystals (northernmost station in Canada)
65 below zero at Summit Greenland

Summit is a weather station on the thick ice cap in Central Greenland

It will be interesting to watch this winter if a super cold arctic airmass comes ac ross the North Pole and heads south into Canada and the USA. Those events can bring some headline making bitter cold outbreaks.

ANOTHER TEMPERATURE CONTRAST
At 5 this morning it was 54 at Birmingham Airport but only 44 in Trussville, a 10-degree difference.
