Do you remember January 30/31st, 2019 in the Quad Cities?

It was the unquestionable coldest night ever in the Quad Cities. The low temperature hit -29° by midnight, making the 30th the coldest day ever in the QC.

Then, after midnight, it went down to -33° early on the 31st…making that the new (and still standing) coldest temperature ever in the Quad Cities.

Was your house making weird noises? Plenty of people around the Quad Cities recall their houses making weird noises due to the frigid temperatures 5 years ago!
