What brought you here to Logan?

Amazing discovery, just a matter of time before Peter Sink's holds the record low in the lower 48.

I love finding secret tunnels. I'm still looking for the one that has an old man handing out swords or magical potions.

You can goto this site to see the realtime temperature from the sensor inside the sink. It's definately colder. climate.usu.edu/PeterSinks/index.php

No, it is not, look up the temperature anytime during the winter. Peters sink is colder!

@@scojar4733 you're gonna have to remind me 5 months from now, because I'm gonna forget to check

@@matthewviramontes3131 Kings Peak's significantly higher elevation and exposure to raw wind means it will certainly have a cold temp advantage during the day when the weather is clear, while Peter Sinks' natural inversion means that cold air can accumulate over the course of several cloudy days and chilly nights to drop far below what Kings Peak will ever see. Which would suggest that while Kings Peak may average lower temperatures, Peter Sinks is capable of hitting far lower temps overall. Of course the issue with us internet randos trying to compare the average temperatures of the two over time is that the temperature on top of Kings Peak isn't directly monitored via any publicly available instrumentation I can find. It's estimated based on satellite imagery as far as I can tell, which means it's less accurate than the temperature data published for the Sinks by the USU Extension and it's measured much less frequently. So it's always going to be hard to say for sure.
