Sustained cold temps--particularly sustained minus temperatures in double digits--are rare in Colorado. The lowest temperature ever recorded in Colorado occurred in February, 1985, when -61 was recorded in Maybell, a small (80 inhabitants), unincorporated town in Moffatt County in the far northwest corner of the state astride the Wyoming-Colorado state line. I couldn't figure out why it would be so cold up there until I saw that Maybell sits at 6,700 feet.

I wish it would be -61 in Iowa every day for about 100 years.
