Record Lows

A list of the cities:
Lynchburg, VA 5 degrees (new daily and monthly record)
Richmond, VA 12 degrees (old record 14 deg in 1925)
Baltimore, MD 11 degrees (old record 12 deg in 1925)
Atlantic City, NJ 10 degrees (tied record 10 deg in 1950)


Due to the latest snowfall, a very cold airmass in place, and clear skies last night many areas in the Northeast recorded record lows this morning with temperatures in the single digits and low teens. Above is a map showing the actual lows across the country this morning as well as the cities that cracked the mark. The other is a visible satellite shot of the snow cover in the Northeast. Also to note is the cloud cover over the Atlantic from very cold air over warm waters.
