What makes for a brutal winter season? Perhaps having a streak of days below a certain temperature would qualify. The featured chart presents the longest streak of days below a given temperature for each winter season since 1893. A few of the most brutal years are highlighted along with the simple average of the lines plotted. Our upcoming bout with cold air will be intense, but does not look to persist for very long. The lack of snow cover makes persistent cold difficult to come by.
