Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA high pressure system that moved over Delaware coupled with fresh snow cover from the winter storm on the 2nd and 3rd gave the state one of its coldest winter mornings in years. This was the first of three arctic blasts in the state during the month. While this was the coldest morning of the winter for some rural areas that are normally colder on calm wind nights, it was not the harshest. Because the high pressure system was over the region, wind chill factors and actual air temperatures were nearly the same. This was not the case a few days later and again around the 22nd of January. ||The low temperature reached 5 degrees at the New Castle County Airport, the coldest morning since January 28, 2005 when the temperature dropped to one degree above zero. The low temperature in Georgetown (Sussex County) also reached 5 degrees. ||Other low temperatures on the morning of the 4th included 8 degrees in Rehoboth Beach (Sussex County), 6 degrees in Dover (Kent County), 5 degrees in Newark (New Castle County) and 2 degrees in Smyrna (Kent County) and Redden (Sussex County).
