Sugarloaf1989 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Car thermometer in January of 2009 in Stratton, Maine. I was skiing with my son at Sugarloaf. -30F at the summit. Skiing with any kind of speed was painful. The coldest skiing I've ever done is also at Sugarloaf. December of 1989 was -37F at the base. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were some days in the 70s when you did about 5 runs and packed it in-too cold and you understood whey the mountain was empty! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coldest wind chill I hit was in Jan with a -55 at Sunday River. We were on the Barker Chair approaching the landing tower when a gust of tremendous strength blew our chair sideways high, the chair in front of us slammed into the irons of the tower high speed disengagement and dented the tower. We were the last chair luckily and let off as the lift slowed to a stop and were able to get off. That dent is still visible. The wind actually stopped our down hill descent on a steep run as we went down. Incredible cold and wind combo. Took this pic off a video posted last winter. Circled area is the damage still visible.

I remember skiing in NNE back in the day with highs well below zero. Last season and this season so far have not been very cold. You picked the wrong decade to have moved to NH. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenmtnwx Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Long range look on the overnights didn’t help. That PV looks pretty strong and jet stream displaced pretty far north. Not good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was up there skiing for my son's birthday. I have to say he was a real trooper and didn't complain about the cold, maybe 50 people were out on the mountain that day. Timberline trail near the summit at -30F. Taking this picture with a camera was not fun. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was right after that cold tuck event. We had like 3-5” of snow followed by the sleet/ice combo and the ice stayed on the trees for days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been the fakiators naked high fiving each other from 5-6am before the temp sky rockets after 7a. Whoopee. "Hey look how cold my valley got by the field with my unshielded accurite!" Meanwhile there's fuking Toucans in the tree canopy's above. I have a 4 year old Davis Vantage Pro 2 wireless mounted 5.5ft off the ground. It just so happens to be attached to a post on my garden at the bottom of the property....I can't help that my property sits in a valley with sandy soil, lol.

weatherwiz Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Just started looking at next week and initial thought was woah....we are going to be much above normal, however, upon looking at the lower levels and the sfc...it may not get as warm as one things...maybe briefly later in the week but much of the week looks like a sneaky CAD-type scenario. Maybe more in the way of seasonal temps as opposed to much above? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
