No record low this morning, but today could see coldest high for the date

Our frigid temperatures this week have been the main topic of conversation, and they will make at least one mark in the record book.

This morning's low of 7 degrees at Barkley Field did not reach the lowest temperature for this date in Paducah, which was 3 degrees, set in 2021.

However, today's coldest low ever in Paducah is recorded to be 30, set in 2006. Today's forecast high is not expected to even reach 20 degrees, with wind chills lingering near and below zero.

Friday's high of 29 starts a rebound into actually warmer than normal temperatures next week.
