[Vision2020] Winnipeg 26 F. Above Moscow Last Night 5 AM?

[Dan Carscallen]

Ted (et al),

Just for the sake of curiosity, I'll add that as I drove north this morning at 0530 it was 17 degrees F at Viola, 8 degrees north of Crooks' Hill, and a balmy 2 degrees from Riverside to the Brinken Substation.

it was still 20 degrees at 1145 up on the Crane Creek/Meadow Creek divide.  

I guess fall's finally here

  While listening to 990 AM CBC Radio One from Winnipeg (off the airwaves, not Internet), Manitoba last night at about 5 AM PDST (3 AM in Winnipeg), they announced the temperature as 0 degrees (32 Fahrenheit), in Celsius, given Canada is in the modern scientific age and officially uses the metric system.  I had just checked an outdoor thermometer (near Joel/Cornwall between Moscow and Troy) and the temperature was 6 F. or minus 14.4 C.  

  At first I thought I must have heard the radio announcer wrong, given Winnipeg has colder average temperatures for this date in October than Moscow, Idaho.  So I checked, and indeed at 3 AM in Winnipeg it was 0 Celsius, 26 degree F. warmer than the outdoor thermometer I checked:
