Back in the '70s, I visited a friend when he was at the U. of N. Dakota in Grand Forks. A snowstorm hit the Sat. night of that weekend, and turned into a blizzard, and I was snowed in so that I couldn't get back to Illinois for work on Monday.
Just a few years ago, it got down to the coldest I've ever seen anywhere, and it was here in Rockford, IL, at -27; I believe it was the same day Chicago reached it also.
