The coldest winter day in Columbus

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Capital Partners Realty 277320

 The coldest winter day The coldest winter day in Columbus history was on January 19, 1994, according to historical data from the National Weather Service. Temperatures dropped as low as -22°, and wind chills put this around -30°, per a news story that week by The Columbus Dispatch. This arctic freeze is now notorious for the rest of the Buckeye State + many other Midwestern states, including Pennsylvania.
I remember I had a home inspection that day and checked on2 vacant homes for freezing

Good morning Joe. I don't remember a temp below -20 in Chicago although I think we hit it for sure back in the 60's. That said recently with temps at -12 we had wind chill warnings of -15 to -40 plus. Guess that's why they call it the Windy City. Stay warm.

We hit a new record last week in Kalispell - I think it was -34º. I can say it was VERY cold outside!

Yes NW IN is also suffering from this arctic winter blast. So happy to now live where cold is low 30's. We are now headed for a warm up to lows of mid 40's and highs of mid 60's. Stay safe and stay warm.
