HIPPYVALLEY Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 As long as there is no wind the cold is tolerable. Pretty amazing to still see ice on the trees from Saturday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll definitely do fine during the day, probably challenging your cold high temp records. Nighttime will probably be a different story, cold but nothing record breaking (especially if we have wind). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 High of 12.2F so far. Not much wind at all so far and even tomorrow looks like NBD. That's when you know the arctic cold is entrenched over us. There's no monster gradient force advecting insanely cold air over us. It just oozed on in and looks like a typical fair day out there.

WxBlue Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 High of 15 in DAW. Barely above my personal coldest high... but tomorrow should break that along with new PR for the low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way the cold just rots over us with reinforcing shots every now and then is really impressive. It gets to the point that seeing -14 or -15C 850 temps looks kind of mild. The next time we see something warmer than that might be a week away and it could be due to warm air advection on the front side of a snowstorm....

tamarack Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 22 hours ago, tamarack said: Farmington reached -39 on 1/20/1994, for their coldest on record. Madison's records don't go back as far, and I don't think they've gotten down that low. State record was set in 2009 at Big Black River, with -50, and there were lots of mid -40s that morning in Aroostook. Correction to the above: Madison data goes back only to 1948, but on 1/20/1994 they recorded the exact same -1/-39 as Farmington. This tied 2/2/1962 for their coldest, though the earlier date had a max of -2, for their coldest daily mean. My record low is -13.9F last Feb 14. I wonder if we'll challenge that. I'm confident you meant "last year, on Feb 14. That's the day NYC ticked down to -1, and this past Feb had nothing even close to that cold. My low on 2/14/2017 was a modest -4, compared to -17 a year earlier. It was -12 as I left for work, and still dropping. It's doubtful the temp will reach double digits today, maybe not until the middle of next week. My longest run here with maxima <10° is 4 days, Jan 8-11, 2004. Looks like that record will fall, though it's nothing compared to Feb 10-17, 1979 in Ft. Kent, when it never got above -2 the whole 8 days.

powderfreak Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Didn't come close to sniffing double digits today in the valleys around here... MVL was missing some data this afternoon but had 5F for 3pm obs. MPV had a high of 5F. Welcome to Siberia. -10F up top in the sunshine and falling.

High elevation (like all above 1kft with most living around 1500ft) tucked on the east side of the Spine between Stowe and Jay. I've got a coworker that lives there and he gets snow similar to the base of Mansfield. I'll have 2" on those fluff mornings in town and he'll have 7". Elevated glen climate...they have a pretty decent lake there at 1500ft and that area has to radiate like mad. This the -7F already. Theres an old Eden COOP with decent snowfall data too if you ever want to weenie out. I remember driving through there in college and the snow like doubled and we were all like where the F are we now? It was Eden. I'd live there but it's like 30 minutes just to get groceries or milk. I get spoiled here with easy access to so much stuff in a resort town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
