episode_narrativeArctic air continued to pour into Southern Wisconsin on northwest winds of 10 to 20 mph. Morning lows dipped to 29 below zero in Monroe (Green county), 23 below in Plymouth (Sheboygan county), 21 below in Madison (Dane county), and 20 below zero (a new daily record) in Waukesha (Waukesha county). Wind chills dropped into the 40 below to 60 below range as daytime temperatures never recovered to zero. Ten people were treated in hospitals for frostbite injuries: one in Sheboygan county, 7 in Milwaukee county, and 2 in Racine county. Service stations were overwhelmed with calls for assistance, and hardware stores reported a booming business due to the demand for space heaters, snow blowers, and other cold-weather gear.
