jbenedet Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 9 minutes ago, dendrite said: So CON hit 74F today...broke the daily record by 10F and the monthly record by 5F. That is also the warmest temperature ever recorded there for meteorological winter. The previous sub-74F window ran from 11/21 (76F 11/20/1991) through 3/8 (77F on 3/9/2016). We have done some monster late Feb-Mar warmth over the past decade. Awesome. I still don’t think that does it enough justice considering the dews in the mid to upper 50’s. If we had dews in the 30’s —widespread low 80’s for highs?! Crazy. We got close to 90 in early April last year, but that was also with desert-like TD’s...

Definitely impressive, but I almost feel like we needed the tropical airmass to pull off temps like this. The Jan cutter had dews well into the 50s too except that obviously came with heavy rains. That melted a lot more snow here than this warm shot did. There were lots of 77-79F obs from various NHDOT/CWOP/HADS sites today, but I'm not sure which of those would be deemed "official" for monthly state record purposes. I'm guessing just the HADS sites? MHT hit 77F so at the least that one is in the books. What a crazy day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 It's almost unreadable. Why would lower arctic ice lead to NAO when the ice loss is happening mostly on the Pacific side? That correlation has been exact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 1 hour ago, CoastalWx said: I sort of cringed at the Harvey study. We know warmer air holds more water vapor, but we also know a slow moving TC is a recipe for disaster flooding. As you said, the mesoscale nuances are endless. To me and I know this was talked about...I’d be more interested if there was a GW component to the stalling of Harvey. Chris Landsea had a great rebuttal to the the Harvey stuff.

He's been a thorn in the alarmist's side for a while on the tropical stuff. His 2010 paper dismantled Emmanuel's earlier stuff about an increase in Atlantic TCs. But that is kind of how peer review should work...rather than being forced to listen to deniers vs extreme alarmists which are both often arguing points outside of the mainstream literature or using those extreme points to build strawmen. I used to post more in the climate forum...back when I did, I remember having to explain stuff like TOBs adjustments on the temperature record to so many who were obsessed wth the idea that the sfc record was adjusted upward because of some non-science motive.

HimoorWx Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Temp had been at 61 for a couple of hours when the wind suddenly gusted. Thinking the front was coming thru, I got up to close the windows. Checked a little while ago, and we're back up to 64. Guess that wasn't the front! High of 71 yesterday and today. At this point in the season any storm needs to be huge, or I'm ready for days like today!Sent from my SM-T713 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
