Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeWind chills fell to around minus 10 across southeast Missouri during the morning. This cold snap was just one of many cases of harsh winter weather during January. After the relatively mild winters of the past several years, the bitter mid-winter cold came as a shock to many. Temperatures fell below zero at many locations for the first time in several years. At Cape Girardeau, the low temperature fell below zero on four days in January, including lows of minus 3 on the 23rd and 24th. The prolonged cold weather resulted in numerous frozen pipes, as well as problems with heating systems. A number of house fires were blamed on overtaxed heating systems. There were no reports of deaths or injuries related to hypothermia.
