Photo shop ... Cut/paste the 87 from the 2875 miles?
Looks convincing though
Don't think the DIC is capable of that low....

As a retired truck driver I have seen extreems all over the lower 48. From -50F to +130F. The -50 was in Minisoda and the +130 was in the Mojave. I have seen alot of 125 temps in Phoenix.

While in the Air Force I saw -80F At Glasgow in Montana. Wind was howlin like crazy. Everyone was restricted to the barracks. No one allowed outside

That's a long time ago since Glasgow closed in 1968 and must have been windchill temp. The lowest actual on record in the lower 48 is -70 at Rogers Pass about 60 miles west of Great Falls, MT in January on 1954.

Now for some other weird stuff. The greatest temperature change in 24 hours occurred in Loma, MT about 30 miles NW of Great Falls. on January 15, 1972. The temperature rose exactly 103 degrees, from -54 degrees Fahrenheit to 49 degrees. This is the world record for a 24—hour temperature change. I've seen some pretty good swings during Chinook winds but never anything like this.

The main base may have closed in 68 but the alert bomber area was still operational in 74. We had to pull 30 day temp assignments there out of Fairchild AFB in Spokane to support the alert nuke loaded bombers that were there.

The -80 was with the wind chill!

He could be a "Ice HHR Addict" like the "Ice Truckers"
