NorthShoreWx Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Drove along the north fork this morning. Large sections of bay that were open in yesterday's satellite photo were frozen this morning. The low temperature in Smithtown was +3.5F at 5:00am.

uncle W Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 this will be the first time since records have been kept in Central Park when both January and February averaged in the 20's after a December averaging in the 40's...this mid to late February cold wave will rival 1914, 1896, 1958, 1979...the first three had great March's while 1979 had a mild March...

Morris Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 This is far more exciting than the non-existent snow. What do the 0z models show for tomorrow night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doncat Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Temp here at midnight was 24 so that will be the high for the day...too bad the cold air didn't rush in a little sooner before midnight like places just to our west...with temps not rising today some spots could see high temps of 10-15 degrees for the day...would think that's a record for so late in the month.

Chaser25973 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 When was the last time the lower Hudson River froze over? I have an amazing view of the Hudson with sheets of ice reaching from Manhattan towards Jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazzo83 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Going to be tough for the park with temps approaching 20 now (18, up from 14 earlier). We needed to be in the low teens now to probably have a shot at 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah for sure. Allot of the ice comes down the river from upstate where it's insanely cold. And I meant I wouldn't recommend walking on it!!

Ice floes caused quite a bit of damage to the docks and pilings on the Hudson back in 2004 and 2005. http://www.nytimes.com/2004/02/07/nyregion/breaking-the-ice-can-be-a-river-hazard.html http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/19/nyregion/19boat.html?n=Top%2FReference%2FTimes%20Topics%2FPeople%2FB%2FBloomberg%2C%20Michael%20R.

Yea in the Shenandoah Valley in VA, we got down to about -15 to -20, parts of the state came close to setting the STATE all time record low. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1994_North_American_cold_wave DCA had a HIGH of 8F. Pittsburgh got down to -21 and Columbus to -22. Parts of KY down to the mid -30s? Yea, we haven't seen anything like this outbreak since. I also remember an outbreak in 1996 when parts of MN and ND had windchills approaching -100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowGoose69 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 The record at NYC tomorrow is 1 in 1888 although the nam mos shows them getting there I doubt it. Record lows start to increase notably after tomorrow so I think they have a shot at a record on the 20th-22nd which are 7 5 and 8 respectively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazzo83 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 It's amazing how much stronger the sun gets as we move through Feb. If this were mid Jan, or even very early Feb, we'd probably be stuck around 10F in full sun. We would have definitely gotten close to 0 in that scenario.
