Arctic cold stiffens Tulia
On this day in 1899, Tulia, Texas, reported the coldest temperature ever
recorded in the state--minus 23 degrees Fahrenheit. This was part of the
"Big Freeze," an infamous norther that killed 40,000 cattle across the
state overnight. This temperature was matched in Seminole in 1933. The
highest temperature recorded for Texas was 120.
