| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | An arctic cold front swept southeast across the region during Tuesday afternoon, January 13th. Extremely cold air followed this front through Wednesday, January 14th.As an Alberta Clipper passed south of Long Island Wednesday night, it rapidly intensified as it moved northeast of Long Island Thursday. The large difference in pressure between a strong low pressure system northeast of New England and a strong arctic high pressure system in Southeast Canada resulted in the combination of extremely low temperatures, high winds, and extremely low wind chill index values from sunset Thursday evening through sunrise Friday morning, January 16th.A record low temperature of zero degrees was set at Newark Airport at 2:53 am on January 16th. Low temperatures were around 0 (1 degree above 0 at Teterboro Airport and 1 degree below 0 at Caldwell Airport).
