A few motorists brave the brutal conditions early Sunday on Broadway Ave., in Sulphur, as a record-setting cold wave, bitter wind chills and about four to six inches of snow hit the area. On Monday, President’s Day, few people ventured out as schools and many businesses were closed. The temperature in Sulphur hit a record-setting -14 degrees early Tuesday with a wind chill of about -25 degrees throughout the morning, making outside work dangerous.
