episode_narrativeA bitterly cold arctic air mass invaded northeast Pennsylvania during the evening hours of the 16th and remained over the area through the 18th. Air temperatures dropped to near zero degrees over much of the region by early morning of the 17th. During the day, readings only managed to reach the single digits and lower teens. That night, temperatures from 5 to 15 below zero were observed in many areas. Perhaps the biggest problem, though, was the strong winds accompanying this cold snap. Wind chills of 35 to 55 below zero were common over the northern tier of Pennsylvania on the morning of the 17th. This prompted many school districts to cancel classes that day.
