Why is Valentine so cold ??

[efb]

I notice Valentine is 12 degrees this morning. Seems like Valentine is colder in relation to some cold places than I would expect.
Example .. coldest temps ever recorded in Dec. are; -39 Valentine in 1989, -37 Grand Forks ND in 1933, -36 in Minot, ND in 1983 and -40 in Sidney, MT in 1983. Valentine, you're hanging tough with some pretty cold hombres. I do see however that Sidney MT was -47 in Jan., 1912.

That's not bad, I had 6 this morning lucky no one decided to calve last night. we are half done hopefully last half goes as good as first half. We are enjoying the nice moisture here will make the grass grow.

Grand Dad was in Roundup, MT in 1912 and saw -57.

In 1997 I was in Evanston, WYO, and with the windchill factored in it was colder than -95. 48 hours later I was in Calexico, CA, and it was 100.

I think it cuz it is so far from Lincoln and Omaha that there ain't many politicians hanging around very often. :lol:
