I'm thinking we have a reasonable chance to hit 100" at the stake.

 

With 4" of new snow the depth is up to 83"...highest of the season.

-15.6 last night.  Will definitely need to round that to -16

 

Coldest since 1/16/09 at -17.2 which is my pws station record.

 

I believe the coldest since moving here in 1986 was the two nights of -20 in Jan 1994.

You caught up quick last night...-16.4F here. I had -27F in one of those '94 shots when I lived in Auburn.

This might have gotten a lot of the peaches grown in SNH.  -14 is the bad number, but some orchards are on hills so they avoid the worst cold.  -17.2 at my house last night, although I was strolling in the 77 degree heat yesterday in Savannah....home on Sunday and think I may have timed that well for a couple more weeks of deep winter.  When I was home for the last big storm I think the depth got to about 36 inches before sublimation.  Did yours?

My peak was a brief 33", but 2 days later it was down to 28".

What's special about -14?

The peach tree is relatively susceptible to damage by cold temperatures. Temperatures of -13°F or lower will generally destroy most peach flower buds and temperatures lower than about -17°F will cause damage to limbs, trunks, and leaf buds. Trees can be damaged by rapid temperature drops following a period of mild weather in early fall or early spring.
