Wrong again, Kenneth...
All of the cold records for January were set in 1950.
Try 1888.
1888 Northwest United States cold wave
Record low temperatures were set, including -65 degrees Fahrenheit at Fort Keogh (near Miles City, Montana) on January 14. At the time, it was the lowest temperature ever recorded in the continental United States.[4] It was not until 1933 that a lower temperature was read in the lower 48 states (-66°F in West Yellowstone, Montana).
Other notable records set during this cold wave are -41°F in St. Paul, Minnesota, -30°F in Spokane, Washington, -28°F in Boise, Idaho, -2°F in downtown Portland, Oregon, 1°F in Newport, Oregon, and 20°F in Eureka, California. All of these readings still stand as the record low for each location. Further, high temperatures of -10°F in Spokane and 9°F in Portland still stand as the coldest maximum temperatures ever recorded.
In Denver, while not record setting, temperatures fell to -18°F while winds peaked at 60 mph.[5] In California, temperatures fell to 20°F in Eureka and 29°F in San Francisco on January 14.[6]
