Quite the up and down temp contrasts from 24 hours ago. Yep, it’s cooler where it’s snow in the South just now but notice the warming further north over the ‘icebox’ that is the Northeast! Nearly 20 degrees warmer up in Maine but go west and here comes the next charge of brutal cold into the N Rockies and Plains.
