What you get and what you see Things that don't come easily Feeling happy in my vein Icicles within my brain Something blowing in my head Winter's ice, it soon will spread Death would freeze my very soul Makes me happy, makes me cold My eyes are blind but I can see The snowflakes glisten on the tree The sun no longer sets me free I feel there's no place freezing me Let the winter sun shine on Let me feel the frost of dawn Fill my dreams with flakes of snow Soon I'll feel the chilling glow Don't you think I know what I'm doing Don't tell me that it's doing me wrong You're the one who's really the loser This is where I feel I belong Crystal world with winter flowers Turns my day to frozen hours Lying snowblind in the sun Will my ice age ever come?

The state record is -47F so that -52F would be close. I'm curious as to what this guy's setup was. The Berlin COOP had -41F from that airmass. What a cold/snowy winter! And the Feb 1934 shot was even more impressive than the Dec 1933 one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think peak of the cold in Dec 33 and Feb 43 were more impressive than Feb 34 in most of NH, but Feb 34 was obviously relentless for the entire month...-12F departure for CON. Dec 33 pulled a record low daily max temp for CON with -11F which blows away the 2nd place of -4F set a couple of times. I can't even fathom S NH spending the entire day double digits below 0F in this era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't even fathom S NH spending the entire day double digits below 0F in this era. The closest thing I can think of to Feb 34 down here is Feb 2015 (for the entire month, not for individual extremes.) Feb 1943 was one of those really cold WW2 winters (I think NYC got down to -6 in that one? Not sure). Winters around WW1 and WW2 were both really cold here and in Europe. 1917-18 was a standout winter from WW1 (-13 here in December is outrageous!) If we got a winter like one of those again, there would for sure be some kind of misery with out of control heating bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither did the family in SNJ, much closer to the epicenter but with 6 active kids in the house, anything not strong enough to toss stuff off the shelves would probably not be noted. Some bits of slush on our road suggests the precip started frozen, but only T. Recorded 0.10" total precip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't even fathom S NH spending the entire day double digits below 0F in this era. That Feb 43 cold shot brought CON to -37 and PWM to an incredible -39. Other than the -31 at 11:59 the night before, their next coldest is -26 in Jan 71. I'd guess that's the country's coldest temp so close to salt water unless one is north of the Aleutian Peninsula. Dec 33 vies with Dec 17 at many locations for coldest ever in Dec. Dec 30 stands out as a cold spot in NYC records. Central Park has recorded -6 or colder on 11 mornings, and 3 are on 12/30, with -6 for both 1880 and 1933, and -13 in 1917 (their coldest maxima - 2 - and coldest daily mean, 2F colder than the 8/-15 of 2/9/34.) The other 8 days with -6 or colder occurred on 8 different dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over would be greater than -7F ie closer to zero...and I agree with him. The core of the cold should be west of us. I’d probably lean -3ish monthly right now. Happy b’day Jer.

wxeyeNH Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 We had to take a ride down to the tropics today (Boston). Always interesting to watch the car thermometer rise as we head 125 miles south. Usually about a 10F difference. 50F something felt so warm. Jeez, the leaves on the trees heading south on Rt 93 and around Boston. Looked like Columbus Day weekend along Storrow Drive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
