Record low temperatures...

were achieved at Spokane last night according to this announcement:
"THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SPOKANE, Wash. -- Spokane residents suffered with a record low temperature of 2 degrees this morning at Spokane International Airport. The previous record of 5 degrees for this date was set in 1950. The normal temperatures in Spokane for this time of year are 47 for a high and 29 for a low. This has been an unusually harsh winter in the Spokane area. Snow earlier in the week pushed Spokane's season total to 88.9 inches, the fourth snowiest since 1881. The record of 93.5 inches was set in the winter of 1949-50. Last winter's 92.6 inches was the second highest amount."
In addition, the mountain snow pack is below normal.
