He's going nuttier than the double rainbow guy. Apparently that happened twice during the storm. My reaction if that ever happened to me would be a little scarier. You don't go out in the snow usually expecting that. You don't associate being at risk of getting struck by lightning while building a snowman.

I guess the traveling meteorologists should have, and maybe have been, just stayed in the NE for the last month. The snow is just not going to melt anytime soon. Boston might see a high briefly above freezing for a few minutes within the next seven days.

For the extra insane weather, there is always Mount Washington. -35 or -36 this morning:

123 mph sustained wind, gust as high as 141 mph this morning. So, around perhaps 90 below zero feels like temperature. I want to see some of the TV weather people up there.

Not to be outdone though, Watertown, NY was also -36 this morning, but with calm wind:

I was looking at some places in Canada and Alaska and couldn't find many temperatures that cold. Even worldwide:
