31.7° and growth/intensity picking up. Pretty breezy too.

Pretty cool to see flakes in NYC this late into May. Run of the mill cold.

31.9° We snow.

37/34 an hour ago at Miller St Park.

Virga 48/29

Looks like it was impeached.

My post was tongue-in-cheek anyway.

Josh's career peaked back when he was regularly posting here, but he's still making a pretty decent living for himself.

Kp 4 after being 6 earlier. Not gonna waste my time looking every 5 mins.

Massabesic Lake COOP in Rockingham county had a low of -43°.

I hit a roadblock at state selection just now. Maybe they’re having temporary issues.

Have you tried here for hourlies? https://www7.ncdc.noaa.gov/CDO/cdoselect.cmd

The -39F was on 2/16 along with the CON record of -37F. Maybe you just had a typo though.

Old scale

I put in a request for data from Limestone (and some other sites) and had no luck with beating the -52F or -54F. If you want to look at the data for the fun of it (while it's temporarily still available) here are the links.

For Maine...I know FVE had at least a -54F on 1/14/2004.

Yeah...before automation you had mainly hourly obs. MWN had all analog recording instruments and a thorough climate record so they had all of the paper charts of instantaneous obs saved. The 1-min ASOS data archive goes back to the early 2000s so if there’s a record wind chill since then you could look up those and find the precise coldest minute. You’re pretty much stuck with the hourlies before then.

The -107°F came from an observer so I presume it was an in-between hour reading considering the -44°F temp was in-between as well.

Maybe not. I just figured it was close to the record with that stretch given the -45F min and the 100mph winds.

Found an article from WMUR interviewing someone from the Mt Washington observatory and apparently the wind chill reach -107F during that Jan 2004 cold shot while the temp was -44F. And yeah, that Whiteface -114F isn't accurate. To beat those MWN numbers you need to do it with colder temps. At a certain point stronger and stronger wind magnitude only creates a negligibly lower wind chill.

You’re not kidding.

Mt Washington had a -103F on 1/16/2004.

No AURBO from MWN last night and they had 100 mile vis for awhile.

Skylar is over. Congrats on Toby though.
