Though temperatures zero prevailed during the morning, Jack Frost relented his grip consid- erably late in the day, the mercury rising to the zero mark around nine o'clock Saturday night. The lowest reading overnight was onc degree a-« bove zero. Observatory officials stated that it was not unsual to record one ex- tremely cold spell in January, The next lowest January temperature on the records was registered in 1927 when the mercury dropped to 16 de- grees below zero. The mean temper- ature Sunday was considerably higher than on aJnuary's coldest day last year, due to the mercury rising throughout the day. Milder weather accompanied by snow will likely follow the cold, fore- casts indicated.
