USA EXTREMES

Yep, both the USA high and low in the same state. Not that unusual. Truckee is on the west slopes of the Sierra Nevada Range and a big snowstorm place in winter.

* Vic Bell reports that the 50 in Scrougeout this morning is 6 degrees colder than any July morning in the 8 years he has kept records there.
