February of 1996 was the last time Wisconsin experienced temperatures anywhere near as cold as -20 degrees. Here's what life was like then:
- Bill Clinton was president.
- The number one song on the Billboard charts was the 'Macarena.'
- Gas was $1.23 per gallon.
- The Spice Girls officially formed.
- Rapper Tupac was shot and killed.
- "Independence Day" was top of the box office.
- The Nintendo 64 was launched.
- Brett Favre won his first MVP award.
- The first version of Google was released as a research project. It was called 'BackRub.'
- The Daily Show had its debut.
A lot has changed since 1996, but one thing has stayed consistent: Wisconsin winters are plain brutal.
The wind chill will reach -60 Wednesday morning with highs throughout the day around -13 degrees. Thursday will follow suit with dangerously cold temperatures.
