Rtd208 Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 I think the NWS (both Mt.Holly and Upton) were a bit on the low side with their expected high temperatures for today. I also think they are to low with their high temps for the next few days as well IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All due respect to Mount Holly but it wouldn't be out-of-character for them to bust low over the next few days. Really nice weather today honestly. I'm looking forward to fall but it was nice and sunny and hot. In the winter it can get too cold to breathe. I'll take the over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be opposed to it though, cold air holds less moisture, we wouldn’t have to contend with the waterlogged muck that we generally get.

It feels like the vast majority of our snow events occur with temps near freezing, but I suppose it depends on one’s location. Precip at 10 degrees is something I’ve definitely never witnessed, but we’re rarely that cold for any appreciable amount of time, if it gets that cold at all.

bluewave Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 The 596 dam height on the OKX sounding last night was one of the highest on record for the month of September. This follows the extreme February 588 dam cold season record and the early July tie for all-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your post said mid 20's...and he's saying that there have been numerous storms with snow with colder temps than 25. You are correct, many storms are b/w 25-33 however to say that it's exceedingly rare to see a snowstorm at less than 25 is not accurate...there are plenty of examples over the last 30-40 yrs.

I’ve seen it before and that’s usually a big storm that temps just keep dropping as the low intensifies with already an arctic air mass in place.

There was significant snow during early daylight hours of Sunday, Jan.20, 1985, in Brooklyn at least, on strong NW winds and 11degs. It cleared and we set a -2deg. record Monday morning.
