donsutherland1 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 The 12z GFS suggests that some parts of the NYC Metro Area could challenge or break their 2/23 record low temperatures before midnight and then break tomorrow's figures, as well. Upstream, Flint's -17° temperature broke the 2/23 daily figure of -10° from 2011 and Cleveland's -5° reading edged the previous daily record of -4° from 1873. Furthermore, as of 11 am, NYC's February mean temperature stood at 24.5°. That currently ranks as the 4th coldest February average on record. February 1895's mean temperature of 24.1° is 3rd. If the 12z GFS is reasonably accurate, February 2015 could wind up as the 3rd coldest February on record, with only February 1885 (22.7°) and February 1934 (19.9°) having had a lower mean temperature (though the February 2015 departure from normal could set a record).

Even more impressive, this month will finish in the top 10 coldest months ever records, nevermind just February. This month will beat almost all Januaries as well. What's also amazing is that all of the months colder than this one were pre-1950, and in most cases, pre 1935, with the exception of 1977. Another point is that there were only 2 Febs in the top 8 coldest months. This will likely be the 3rd February in the top 8 coldest months. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:AlC9PTQOeG8J:www.weather.gov/media/okx/Climate/CentralPark/warmcoldyearsmonths.pdf+&cd=4&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With respect to temperature anomalies, February 2015 has a realistic probability of finishing at 11° or more below normal. That would top the February 1934 and January 1977 anomalies from their respective norms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle W Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 the last 30 days are averaging around 25.8...1/24-2/22...By Feb. 28th the average from 1/30-2/28 could be around 24.0...1934 averaged 19.6 from 1/31-3/1...1936 averaged 20.4 from 1/23-2/21 if my math is correct...24.0 would tie for ninth place for the coldest 30 days since 1934...

bluewave Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 The rapid temperature drop showing up in the models for later this afternoon into the evening would give NYC a single digit low for both today and Tuesday. NYC would move up to 7 February single digit lows right behind 1979. http://www.weather.gov/media/okx/Climate/CentralPark/Below10DegreeDays.pdf Most February single digit lows in NYC 12...1875 10...1934 8.....1979 6.....1917, 1914, 1881 5.....2015..so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chietanen Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 What's the consensus on the low in Central Park tonight? Low single numbers? The short term models are showing colder temperatures than the last couple of nights in which we were tracking a possible reading of zero or below.

pazzo83 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 maybe central park can dip below zero tonight if winds go calm i bet they can Central Park needs a steady N or NW wind to get its coldest temps.

doncat Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I think the low is suppose to be 2Either way I think most stations will be setting records for coldest so late in season...Got down to 0 here a few days ago for the first time in 11 years...If I make it below zero tonight it would be first time since 1994.

Juliancolton Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I'm going go out on a limb and say that tonight has a shot at producing a -20F reading here as well. My low on the 16th was -17.7F, and it seems that radiating conditions will be somewhat better tonight. Winds are currently quite active from the NW, but should die down over the next several hours. Not ideal for places like Central Park that rely on CAA to produce subzero lows, but in good radiating spots throughout the countryside, temps look to drop like a tank. I'm more convinced every year that extreme cold is just as interesting as heavy snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree...I think for those of us that have weather stations its interesting to see how low we can get in our backyards...I really don't care what the temp is at an official station that's tens of miles away from me in an urban setting...I'd gladly trade in a few inches of snow for extreme cold.
