Three weeks ago, we had a pretty good storm hit. I had to go to Las Cruces on Friday, and as I passed the wood train trestle just down from Cloudcroft the thermometer in my car said it was 3 degrees F outside.
I thought that was pretty darn cold, and I was smart enough not to get out of my car there.
Tonight I was doing Apollo spotting at the observatory.
It was 15 degrees F.
The wind was gusting at 20 MPH.
The wind chill factor made it an effective -2 F.
Definitely gotta get better gloves and boots.
