There have been quite a few times where temperatures managed to jump 40-60 degrees within a day.
Certainly nothing strange or sinister about it. In fact its happened before. In fact the biggest temperature plunge in Chicago was back in 1911 :

The changes may be part of a cycle, however, climate changes are taking place, they do exist. No one really understands it all, and what they mean, time will tell or eliminate the need to know.

This outbreak of ice came in the year when earth, moon and sun were in a relative position that gives a secondary maximum of the tide-producing forces. The similar constellation of 1912 was another great ice year in the Labrador Current - a year that brought the disaster of the Titanic.

Now in our own lifetime we are witnessing a startling alteration of climate, and it is intriguing to apply Otto Pettersson’s ideas as a possible explanation.

It is now established beyond question that a definite change in the arctic climate set in about 1900, that it became astonishingly marked about 1980, and that it is now spreading into subarctic and temperate regions. The frigid top of the world is very clearly warming up.
