JTA66 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 2.1F when I left the house this morning at 7:00. I wonder if I would have made it below zero if the snow cover held? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainshadow Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 4F. The core of this air mass is so cold, as long as the winds stay up tonight (this probably wont happen iN some sheltered spots), temps are going to just keep steady/rising after this morning. http://www.nws.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/mos/getmav.pl?sta=KPHL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wederwarrior Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 -6 overnight. Still have snow cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 AM Low here in NW Chesco 1.6 below zero - breaks old record of 1.0 from 1981. Coldest in this location since I have lived here and only the 2nd below zero temperature. Coldest low in Chesco since 2/6/1996 when it hit 6 below zero. Also of note it is difficult to average out with a below average day in early January with a high of 55.5....but we pulled that off yesterday with an 11:59pm low of 6.8 we averaged out at -0.1 for the day.The 57.0 degree temperature change from 630am from the 6th to 7th - very impressive!

Chief83 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Worcester, PA. -1 this AM for a low. Not near the -7 I had a few days ago. I only drop to the rock bottom when there is snow on the ground and there is no wind. Wind gust to 44 mph. No middle of the night fires - so I am happy.

hazwoper Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Not in our area, but Central Park set a record low this morning (5, breaking the old record of 6 from 1896). First record low there since January 2004 (1). Yeah, you read that right. Not the first record low in January since 2004. The first record low EVER (in ANY month) since 2004. Wow Ray, can you easily figure out how many record highs Central Park has had during that timeframe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceman56 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 are highes predicted at midnight? I figure my 8.7 at midnight this morning will be it for today. Can't see it being that warm tonight. I think we get some radiational tonight to replace the advection we had last night to keep temps lower. Low this morning in NW Chesco - 0.9 currently 4.9. Expecting to get back near zero this evening with marginal snow cover and light winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 that was a cold day for me waiting for the bus looks like a sunday another coldest day 1/20/85 High 10F Low -10F also a sunday snow on the ground for both those cold days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 are highes predicted at midnight? I think most places will see their highs end up being their readings this past morning at midnight. Temps will likely be fairly steady (Tony said this too) through tonight. Some places that still have snow and decouple well might radiate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think I get out of the single digits today after recording a high temp of 8 at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophisticated Skeptic Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 off-topic but still significant. X 1.2 flare....directly earth facing just occurred with sunspot 1943. CME detected.
