sf frost San Francisco ties cold record as Bay Area freezes Friday, November 29, 2019 If you thought Thanksgiving Day was unusually cold this year in San Francisco, you were correct. In fact, it tied a century-old record. The high temperature in the city on Thursday was forty-eight degrees. That tied a record high temperature for the coldest date for San Francisco in the month of November. That record had stood unchallenged since November 27th, 1896, when it last happened. According to the National Weather Service, the coldest high-temperature day ever in San Francisco was a freezing thirty-five degrees on December 11th, 1932. That day also holds the distinction for the coldest record low temperature ever recorded in the city, which is twenty-seven degrees. snow 7 feet in 7 days: See the snow piled up in Tahoe By Amy Graff, SFGATE Published 10:52 am PST, Wednesday, December 4, 2019 Back-to-back storms slammed the northern Sierra Nevada over the past week, and higher elevations of the Tahoe Basin are blanketed with fresh powder. "We’re doing pretty well snow-pack wise and we’re now above normal," said Evan Laguardia, a forecaster for the National Weather Service office in Reno. "What happened in just one week is incredible." Many ski resorts are reporting more than seven feet of pile-up. "It’s been exactly one week since snow started falling here at Squaw Valley Alpine Meadows and we are now up to 80 inches, or nearly seven feet, of snow on the upper mountain at Squaw Valley," said Liesl Hepburn, a spokesperson for Squaw Alpine. "That’s an average foot of snowfall per day." In higher elevations, Heavenly is reporting 86 inches, Northstar 81 and Kirkwood 92.
