IrishRob17 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 You should... You radiate better than 99% of us. If I'm not mistaken MGJ almost always comes in in the top 5 coldest reporting stations in the state. Awesome radiating location & unlike that phony location out in E LI you will stay cold when it matters lol.. JC in Millbrook does just as well, if not better.

UlsterCountySnowZ Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Currently -3f and the winds howling at the base of the gunks, sounds like a train Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chietanen Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Looking at the Wundermap, I'm really impressed by the consistency in cold temperatures across the region. Pretty much every station, save for the immediate coastline, is at 9 degrees or below in the tristate area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UlsterCountySnowZ Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Anyone know how to change a display name? Now that i don't live in orange anymore the names kinda rediculas, and I've never had I change one before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chietanen Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 -1/-11 here now... Many of us have a shot at -10 tonight I think you guys might do better than me tonight. The cold seems to be spilling in more from the west/northwest. Currently at 2 degrees here. Wind seems to be calming down a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's still ongoing CAA, though, and as noted above the cold is pretty uniform, so the playing field is pretty level. The benefits of airmass-driven cold are that different places can nab some impressive numbers, and that you don't have to deal with a 20-degree jump as soon as the sun creaks over the horizon. I'm not sure why that bothers me, but it always has... lol. Currently a bit slow to cool, +0.7F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chietanen Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Just brutal.. Pretty remarkable. I was just reading Buffalo's AFD and they set a new record low maximum for the date of 2 degrees. Coldest day since 1994. That reading occurred at midnight, though, and they dropped below zero shortly after and have stayed there since. I'm really hoping CPK drops to zero (or lower) tonight to add another layer to this cold shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Just brutal.. KPOU is running -10.4F below normal for the month, -9.9F at KMGJ. We may not put too much of a dent in those departures... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Well, the cold is the last holdout for a remarkable facet of the big storm system—snow and winds were both underwhelming imby, and I have to admit that I was expecting a more rapid drop in temps this evening. It's actually creeping up a bit; normally I would attribute that to the wind, but with -23C temps at 925 mb and -26C at 850, I'm not really sure where any milder air would be mixing down from, lol.

I've been wondering the same. Temps were dropping like a rock after sunset, but now they've almost leveled off. I'm down to 1, but it's been a very slow drop over the past few hours. I did record a -29 wind chill, so that was impressive. A lot of talk about ratios in the forum. Someone should sum up all the pages of storm discussion threads at the end of the season and compare it to inches of snow this season in NYC. I'm guessing the ratios would be much higher than 10:1.

West Point, NY Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I'm up around Montreal and with full sun today the best it did was -3. More snow back home on ground for sure. It literally hurts outside here tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hah, indeed. Like jm says, it's been worse than pulling teeth for the city and its environs. Nobody can say we didn't have enough to track, anyway... I wonder if the NWbW flow is warming (or at least moderating) us adiabatically via downslope off the Catskills and Helderbergs, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the NWbW flow is warming (or at least moderating) us adiabatically via downslope off the Catskills and Helderbergs, etc. Yeah I wonder that too, often the coldest nights here are not ones with strong winds like this but rather normal 30 degree days with near -10 850s that happen to have calm winds at night. Just a hunch but I think this cold outbreak will underperform in the valleys. Edit: The wind just finally died and it dropped 3 degrees in the last hour. Now down to -1.

Anyone know what the record for POU is for tonight? KPOU's record low for the 16th is -3F, set back in 1963... one of the warmest record lows for the month, actually. The station is at 2F now. My low for the 15th goes down as -2.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chietanen Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 -13 for a low. Shocked when I saw how low it got. Also recorded a wind chill around 1 am of -32! Checked out KPOU and they got to -12, it was 0 until 4 am then the winds went calm and they dropped 12 degrees in 3 hours. Similar here, I was 0 at 3 am. Deep snow pack ftw!

IrishRob17 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Only got down to -3 here. As much as I was hoping to do better I had a feeling that my -10 on Sat morning would be the coldest of the weekend for the reasons Julian elaborated on so well yesterday.

IrishRob17 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 This is my fourth day in a row with a below zero low. Friday's though was a bootleg, to some, since it occurred at 11:58pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Wow!! The bottom completely fell out this morning and I recorded a minimum of -17.7F (corroborated by that USCRN station in Millbrook that fell to -15.2, and is often a degree or two warmer than me on the coldest nights). That caught me completely off-guard. I love this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
