Embarrass 27 F
The reading at Embarrass narrowly missed the all-time state record for August 30th of 26 degrees F at Sawbill Camp (Cook County) in 1935. In addition to the above, Benson in western Minnesota reported a new record low of 36 degrees F. It appears there may be some addition near record lows tonight (Aug 31st), but the state record for the 31st appears safe at 23 degrees F at Cotton in 1970. Incidentally, on August 31, 1949 it snowed in Duluth, the only known occurrence of snow in the month of August. Stay warm..........
