(MORE: The Coldest Places on Earth | Earth's Coldest Town | America's Coldest Cities) February 1899: The Clear Number 1 The cold wave during the first two weeks of February 1899 is by far and away the gold standard for cold outbreaks in U.S. history. The definitive paper on the Great Arctic Outbreak by Paul Kocin, Alan Weiss and Joseph Wagner referred to it as a benchmark with which to compare similar events.
I'm having some trouble figuring out what my screen resolution should be. My monitor is the Dell UltraSharp Widescreen 2007WFP... which is a 20 inch widescreen. Its native resolution is 1680 x 1050. At this resolution everything is very clear and normal and good. However, everything is a bit too small for me to read comfortably.
For a 1280 x 1024 perspective (on a 19-inch monitor), stand up and look at the ground. Some monitors can handle higher resolutions such as 1600 x 1200 or even 1920 x 1440somewhat akin to a view from up in a tree. Monitors are measured in inches, diagonally from side to side (on the screen).
