OSUmetstud Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 3 degrees, wind chill is -8F. Probably won't make it to zero tonight as winds have turned south...but many areas in the southern tier of NY will or already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High elevation but also in a slight basin so they can radiate like mad. Too bad its completely in the middle of nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 surprising that it's a slight basin with the airport at 2117 ft. SLK is -12F. Yeah well it only takes like a 100 foot difference from surrounding ridges to really get the radiational cooling going, so even if its a pretty high spot regionally, if the immediate surroundings are bit higher then its off to the races. SLK is over 2000 feet too I think and they radiate like mad as well. I see the same phenomenon here in the ORH hills...there's some spots north of me that are in subtle basins but might be 1200 feet...and they will get down to like -15F on the same night I only make it to -2F or something. I'm on the side of a hill...and even worse is when I'm on the top of winter hill...they will be 5F and the bottom can be -10F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 7F...we might get it under 5F tonight. Chance of 0F is a major longshot. With snow cover, we'd probably already be near 0F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Springville is about the best spot in WNY to radiate. In Concord, on 219...there's a big hill that gets up to about 1800 ft...then you drop into an elevated valley in Springville which is 1300-1400 ft near the Cattaraugus Creek basin. There's been many nights where BUF is 0 to -5F (we don't radiate very well) and Springville gets down to -20 to -25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 No radiational cooling tonight though....winds are pretty stiff out of the NW...some sheltered spots may try and decouple late though towards morning as the sfc ridge builds closer from NY State.
