This is the link I where I found the information on Alaska. https://www.currentresults.com/Weather-Extremes/US/lowest-temperatures-alaska.php

Icon gonna be south

I don’t know, I’m somewhere in your age bracket and I still let it frustrate me sometimes. It’s pretty much why I stopped watching sports, because I feel ridiculous tensing up and yelling at the TV.

A few seconds of graupel here in Columbia- fringed!

Seems we are in a bit of uncharted territory here with the analogs. I wonder what the AI's take is with this. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk

-80 in Prospect Creek Alaska Jan. 23 1971. It was coldest US Record. Coldest lower 48 is -70 Rogers Pass Montana in 1954. -83 NA Record in Snag. Yukon.

GYX is holding off until the last possible minute to go to a warning for some here.

8-10 years from now..when your my age…it won’t bother you as much anymore. And that’s the truth.

Another winter of hands just like two balloons.

It appears the model spread has it really being from Yarmouth/Freeport - Belfast extending inland to your area. We'll know in 36 hours in any case.

I try not to let it get to me, but it’s been a little bit maddening. My last accumulating snow was almost 3 weeks ago yet it’s been plenty cold and I still need to heat the house.

HRRR (01z), RRFS, and ICON are a little juicier than the NAM: 0.2 - 0.3 liquid for NYC. Heaviest band could be fairly narrow. Snow accumulations along coastal plain likely intensity dependent. So far no obvious change at 0z.

Comfortably?

It was there at 18z as well.

That looks just like my map from the weekend.

I’m too numb to be angry.

I’ve been following the weather for many years. Most years during my childhood (80’s) the weather was oftentimes very cold during the winter and I took note of it. I didn’t write down the dates when the brutally cold air would build in Alaska and Canada, but my dad and I watched it and we knew it would usually eventually be unleashed into the lower 48. I looked it up on google just now and found about 24 cases where the temps were between -70 to the record of -80. These were scattered from Jan 19-20 1952 to Jan 29 1999. The coldest being Jan 27 1989 at -76 and Jan 5 1997 at -77. The ultimate coldest Jan 23 1971 at -80. I don’t see any temps that cold though in the 2000’s. So, there is definitely precedent for it to be lower than -60 with 24 cases at or below-70 in Alaska.

That’s not unreasonable considering the set up for this.

RGEM moves the IT jackpot up to Belfast-ish.

That’s bullshit Scott. I don’t really care if this shits the bed. It wont bother me one bit. Wow, so I don’t get my inch or two. I used to get angry like you, I don’t anymore.

It’s a shame we toss it.
