Cold,Cold and more cold...Some pictures also...

Well if you like the cold you will love this.... Last night we got down -15 while the Rice Lake Airport came in with -12... The lows happened at 1 AM this morning... The week ahead will star more cold temps,more so closer to normal but nevertheless still should be below normal with highs from the upper teens to lower 30s with lows ranging from near -10 below to middle teens..The 6 to 14 day outlook will star even more colder air as temps will remain well below normal...Not really seeing any big time winter storms as of now....There are some systems to watch,however thinking is as of right now they will remain South of the area.... This is a fast forecast....
Now for those who missed yesterday's sundogs and sun Haloes,along with the sun pillars at sunset...Never fear I was able to photograph them.Picture below shows the sun Halo with the sundogs on either side coming off the halo to the left and right.
Picture below shows the sun pillar along with ice crystals towards the snow...

Picture below shows the sun being stretched with the sun pillars...

Picture below shows the sun pillar really taken off...
Picture below I just love..Very nice sun pillar and the way the sun is setting looks like the tree line is burning...So all in all it was a great sunset...Temps at +5° at the time these pictures were taken... Lots of ice crystals in the air....
