Cold, snowy January here in N Jersey

[bgreene]

About 3 degrees below average so far this Jan at 29 vs 33 average......
That average temp may fall based on colder air next week, and snowfall well above average too.

Still, not nearly as cold as winter of 1976-77 when the avg January temp was 19 degrees.
My parents saved the Time Magazine from that month........the cover headline was
" DEEP FREEZE ".
Arctic air continued to slide down across much of the USA, and snow was reported in Florida.
