MattyR Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 That's for the very top of the Toll Road, so the temps will be slightly less brutal where folks are skiing. I've skied at Gore Mountain a few times with a windchill in the -40 range and it's so cold, it burns. But, if you have the proper gear, it's manageable. Plus, the cold keeps the crowds in the lodge and off the slopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Have I skied in temps significantly below 0? Yes. Would I do it again? Most likely not. The coldest I remember being in in the northeast is 25-30 below and that is something special but, out west I've been in temps colder than -50 several times and that truly SUX! Fortunately those kinds of temps don't usually hold for long after the sun comes up but sustained in the mid 20's below is not as unusual as it may seem, especially in deep valleys on windless days.

Animal Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 still looking for the 35-50 mph wind gusts. winds have been a bust so far on my street. Temp has dropped to 6.4F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Hopefully the winds die down early in the morning and we can work on a shallow decoupling. That would yield some really impressive numbers as opposed to, say, -10, would would have been almost routine during the last couple winters.

I made the mistake of putting my gauge in my back, on my deck, and the house break my winds, so it's probably not accurate anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many are sited incorrectly and many of us have trees and other things in the way. If I get a good gust on my station I know it's really windy out there.

Animal Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Sharing the same brain here, the wind has been ripping here all afternoon. I must be in the shaft zone. Granted I have a lot of trees etc. Highest so far 25 mph around 1130 this morning. Forecast was noted for gust near 50 mph this afternoon. I was hoping to register some near 40 mph. might need to extend my anemometer 10 feet higher in the spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It clears to roof line by 10 feet. I am considering getting sussex rural electric coop to put a telephone pole in my yard. attach it to the top. I got a cost to do it and it was not too bad with $ . I was told that i need to put a spot light on it to get it completed per policy. Not sure what the people on my block would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 That would be a fantastic snow light right there. I also have to pay some sort of monthly fee depending on the exact light that I wanted. Cost would be as high as $12/month. May be worth it for a snow light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
