cold snap #2

TV朝日系列は「米に寒波襲来 サンフランシスコで4人凍死」と報じていましたが、正確にはcold snapが襲ったのはサンフランシスコではなくシリコンバレー周辺地域のようです。気温はもどったのでしょうか。友達に連絡してみましょう。(UG)

Cold snap not going away anytime soon

The Bay Area's cold snap continued to send shivers through residents early in the week as freeze warnings remained in place, but temperatures are expected to warm up starting Monday.

Shelter officials throughout the region are keeping open additional beds for those seeking a respite from the unusually frigid weather, which is being blamed for causing the deaths of at least four homeless people since Nov. 28. Three of them were in San Jose, one in Saratoga and a fifth man found dead Friday in Dublin may have also died because of the cold.

Sunday night was expected to be the coldest of the week, with temperatures sinking into the high teens or low 20s inland, and between 30 and 35 degrees in coastal areas. San Francisco was the lone warmer spot with temperatures in the mid- to upper 30s, said Charles Bell, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.

"It's very cold, clear skies, generally light winds," Bell said. "Temperatures are just going to be very cold for our area."
