Today’s weather station temperature plot. It’s been so cold at times the station data is not received… we think it might be the cold affecting the batteries.. but then why does it happen when it is relatively warmer?

It’s been a colder and snowier winter than last year… and that got us to thinking… how cold has it been? Looking through the weather station logs came up with this summary:
