That paper answers a lot of the questions, but I need to read it in more detail to glean actual weather. For our thought experiment we'd be looking at the rotation period of 365 days, of course. I was surprised that the lowest baseline temperature, even on the night side, was as high as 240 degrees K (about -30 degrees F) and the highest was as lows as 300 degrees K (about 81 degrees F!).
