For February 10
(for Southeast Minnesota, Northeast Iowa, and Western Wisconsin)
  • In 1981, Mauston, WI (6") snow.
  • In 2008, An arctic front pushed through the Upper Mississippi River Valley Saturday afternoon (February 9th), bringing some light snow as it moved through. Amounts were small, mostly an inch or less. More significantly, the front brought with it strong winds and appreciably colder air. By the evening northwest at 15 to 30 mph were common, with gusts over 45 mph in some locations. The strong winds blew around the falling, and already fallen snow, leading to some blowing and drifting of the snow. The cold air funneled in Saturday night, with temperatures tumbling into the single digits and teens below zero Sunday morning. Factoring in the strong winds, wind chill readings of -30 to -45 degrees were common from late Saturday night through early Sunday morning.
  • In 1899, Medford, WI had its coldest temperature ever (- 45) and Neillsville, WI had its coldest February temperature (- 46).
