Jesse Ferrell: -16*

Centre County Lows 2/16

The coldest weather this season for most stations this morning.

Selected* Online Centre County Lows this morning (and most recent colder record):

Elliot Abrams: -13 (None Since 2005) 
Jesse Ferrell: -12 (-14 2/12/14)
KUNV Airport:  -11 (-19 1/19/94)
Corl Street:   -9  (Not Enough Data)
AccuWeather:   -9  (None Since 2005**)
Mark Mancuso:  -9  (Not Enough Data)
PSU Shelter:   -7  (-9 1/7/14)
Marshall Moss: -6  (Not Enough Data)
PSU WalkerTop: -7  (?)

**No previous record lower since 2005, but station was missing during January 16, 2009 outbreak, which established the since-2005 record for the Jesse Ferrell station.

PSU did not set a daily record because their record for the day was -8 in 1904.

It would appear that we had a new record (since 2005) at Elliot Abrams' house. The airport KUNV was lowest since 1994, as far as I can tell.

One thing so notable about this cold outbreak is that it's not January. It's mid-February! Penn State says this morning was their lowest February temperature Since 1979.

If your station is not included in this list, please post a comment with your low from this morning.

Other Online Lows This Morning:*



Outside of the county, Erie set an all-time record low of -18! Harrisburg and Williamsport also set record daily lows. For comparison to the list below, the PA state record low is -42 at Smethport (McKean County) on 1/5/1904.
