Whoever the genius is who repped this post and left a comment, "incorrect" Google it. Last I did, it was 47F in Montreal and 42F in Houston. I just googled it again. Now it's 49F in Montreal and 42F in Houston.

You know what I noticed... When the Jet stream dives south, it's much easier for Cold air to just flow over land and reach the Gulf Coast States VS when the Jet stream digs into Eastern U.S.


Let me show an example... Current on left. Example on right.


I know the trof's swing around and harder for the bottom to reach Florida but they rarely dig straight down in the East.I think the Gulf and Atlantic have something to do with that


Point is, easier to dig down to Texas & Louisiana than Georgia or South Carolina

Tomorrow morning will be even crazier. Colder in Miami than most of Maine.

You're right. I believe the Appalachian Mountains also have a slight effect on this, as well.

Even crazier...

Yesterday Calgary was warmer than Houston!

High yesterday in Calgary was 24.1C ....normal high is only 8.3C

High yesterday in Houston was only 19C ....more like a december high for them.

However, Calgary weather is more unstable....later this week forecast highs are all below freezing,
predicted high for friday only -9C.

Looks like it ended up getting down to 30F at the airport! This set a new daily record low min.

The last time we had a freeze in October was 2012.

The last time it got below freezing here was January 9. Shows just how pathetic this past winter was... Seems quite odd that October has a colder low than February, lol.
