Cold Temperatures Continue

The frigid temperatures continue to dominate the news with temperatures the lowest they have been in almost a decade throughout northern California. A freeze warning, that began yesterday morning remains in affect through 9am this morning as an arctic air mass lingers over California. According the National Weather Service another cold night was expected last night with 5-10 hours of below freezing temperatures- likely in the teens. This morning, we had low temperatures again ranging in the teens to low twenty’s and today’s highs will warm only a few degrees above yesterday’s mid 40’s, however the overnight low is expected to rise almost 10 degrees tonight putting Amador County in mid to high 20’s. Sub-freezing temperatures are possible again Wednesday night, though, according the National Weather Service the temperatures are not expected to be as cold as the recent near-record temperatures that we saw over the weekend. The rest of the week is looking to be in the high 30’s to low 40’s with below freezing temperatures at night.
