* WHAT... Sub-freezing temperatures as low as 28 possible.

Those are the Weather Service’s own words. CNAW does not rewrite a warning.

Why it is doing this

The barometer is up 2.0 millibars in six hours. Rising pressure means air is sinking, and sinking air warms and dries on the way down, which is what clears a sky out.

The wind is out of the northwest at about 4 miles an hour, so the air over us is coming down out of the continent behind a front, which is the driest air we get.

The dew point is only 39. Dry air swings hard both ways: warm by afternoon, and a good deal colder by dawn than the forecast number suggests.
