It's been cold...REALLY cold over the past few days and nights and is expected to stay that way at least for a couple more days. This morning however, was a new record for Denver. The coldest low temperature ever recorded broke a 123 year record.

Oh yeah, it was cold all over the state this morning, check out these crazy wind chills.


While this morning's temperature broke the 123 year old record for lowest temperature recorded in Denver for this particular date, it's far from the coldest temperature ever recorded in Denver.

In fact this morning was pretty balmy compared to some of these crazy temps back in the day...
