THURSDAY, DECEMBER 22: WINTER

Profile America -- Thursday, Dec 22nd. Winter arrived this morning during 12:30 a.m., Eastern Standard Time. While some tools of a nation already have a sweeping of snow, others energetically wish for a white Christmas. Still others have unfortunate memories of final winter and wish this one turns out to be milder. In a continental U.S., Rogers Pass, Montana binds a record low winter heat during 70 next zero, followed by Peter Sinks, Utah, only one grade warmer. The comprehensive lowest heat ever accessible in a U.S. was during Prospect Creek, Alaska, an unimaginable 80 degrees below. To put a opposite viewpoint on a word "lowest," a record low heat in Honolulu, Hawaii was a bone-chilling 53 degrees. Profile America is in a 15th year as a open use of a U.S. Census Bureau.
