vespasian70 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Hit a low of -19 in Newark. Hopefully the late February sun will work its magic today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxman_ind Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 incredible busts by the NWS....many places 10 degrees colder than expected. CMH at -10, Cincy -17 To beat the record low by 10 degrees is unreal. Trudging thru a historic Feb Yeah I screwed this one up. I'm not surprised though that it got colder than expected. At least I was close at Lafayette! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snohio Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 It is a balmy 1 here in northwest Ohio. Most if not all of the rest of the state is colder. That doesn't seem to happen too often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chambana Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Thermometer dipped to -12 here in C-U this morning, this shatters the old record of -2 set in 1967! This airmass was under modeled, wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonger Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 That's what the coldest month in most posters life time will do to the great lakes. I was born in May 1979, has this been my coldest month, using KLAN as my climate spot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonger Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I didn't think it was even possible to freeze Ontario over. Nobody tell the terrorists about our open border! They could scamper right across. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 The cold out east really has been impressive. We've been very cold, but nothing out of the ordinary. We average at least a few mornings in the -10 to -15F range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird to see those places so much colder than us, though I guess the snowpack is deeper there and winds stayed up a bit at LAF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could scamper right across. As deep as Ontario is hard to believe, but a little good news is that it looks like this little clipper that could may break up the lake at least for a couple days may eek out some more snow. But the sustaining cold has been very impressive to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 question for the lake folks....especially Michigan. How severe of an effect will these frozen lakes have with actual weather going into spring and early summer? In other words, is it not as obvious as it might seem and not as big of a deal, or will it have a dramatic effect on temps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, is it not as obvious as it might seem and not as big of a deal, or will it have a dramatic effect on temps? In early season severe events it usually stunts the warm frontal progression near the lakes such that you get a bulged northward front through the center part of the state yet being held back by Lake Michigan and Lake Erie/Huron on the ends. Also in general you have a lake shadow off of Lake Michigan in the summer usually leading to the formation of clouds further inland while remaining closer to sunny near the coast.

RCNYILWX Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 question for the lake folks....especially Michigan. How severe of an effect will these frozen lakes have with actual weather going into spring and early summer? In other words, is it not as obvious as it might seem and not as big of a deal, or will it have a dramatic effect on temps? I think there could be another impressive fog season for the IL and IN shore. Almost became a microclimate like they have in the San Francisco Bay Area. The lake took forever to warm up last spring and early summer, so it did have a pretty big impact on temps, with frequent lake breezes, while inland areas were actually fairly mild in May and June. We did a study about the impact of cold lake temps on intensity of lake breezes, and up until last year, there wasn't a huge impact found, but I think the very late ice melt definitely played a role. Could be fairly similar this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In roughly 4-6 weeks when everyones talking about some days in the 60s-70s the lakeshore communities (myself included) will be in the 40s with fog.

mjwise Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Yeah it's been cold, but compared to last season it's sort of meh. Mean trough has been further east in Feb. compared to last year. Also noticeable in that Lake Ontario is colder than this time last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 While last winter overall was colder, this month has been colder than any month last year. (or since Jan 1977, for that matter ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I don't think there is anything I hate more in weather in general than extreme cold. Anything under 20 degrees I cannot stand. Don't know how anyone lives in climo that is extreme cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, is it not as obvious as it might seem and not as big of a deal, or will it have a dramatic effect on temps? Snow depths will also add to the delay of the melting of the lake ice. Much of the older ice has extensive snow pack which will reflect the suns energy greatly slow the melting process. Ice with no snow is darker and retains much more radiant heating. I wonder what the frost depths are as of late ?? As soon as the melting process begins the roads are going to explode with pot holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilbertfly Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 -6 in the P&C for tonight... next Tuesday has the potential to feel like a mini sauna if some of these progged temps/DP's come to fruition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 -6 in the P&C for tonight... next Tuesday has the potential to feel like a mini sauna if some of these progged temps/DP's come to fruition Forecast here calling for -3 tonight and -4 tomorrow night. If we go below zero tomorrow night, it would be the latest occurrence in the season since 1984. Could conceivably get a 6" storm on Sunday and hit 50 degrees on Tuesday, though it remains to be seen how much the melting snowpack and clouds/rain would hold our temperature down.

stormtrackertf Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Record low tonight is -4°F at DTW, and the forecast calls for -5°F. Might have another record breaker tonight.Saturday's record is only -1°F so we should break that as well. Interestingly, today's record low is also -1°F so if things clear out quickly enough before midnight (doubtful) we could tie or break that too.

cyclone77 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Down to -2. 10th one of the month. 11th subzero day will be added in about 2 hours. EDIT: Just across the river at Clinton they're all the way down to -8, and already -10 at DVN. Winds must have settled a little more in those locations.
