    MWN seems stalled at -45. Still might be 2-3 hours to drop it further but they aren’t reaching -50.
  2. ORH_wxman
    ORH -6 Seems be fluctuating between 2 and 3F too warm These temps are crazy considering the core hasn’t arrived yet
  3. ORH_wxman
    He was kidding…see the discussion about the ASOS a couple times in the past few pages.
  4. ORH_wxman
    Yeah it’s a legit dangerous night to lose power. It’s bad enough on a run-of-the-mill 10F breezy night in mid-winter, but this makes that look like a balmy summer evening.

    Yeah that’s a solid 2F off. Can make a good case for 3F too warm since those mesonets were 10 min before obs time. That’s pretty awful.
  7. ORH_wxman
    Just a few minutes to obs time, let’s what they come in with…
  8. ORH_wxman
    If their low is -15, I might go office space on the ASOS. I’ll be on the news in cuffs being perp-walked in below zero readings.
  9. ORH_wxman
    I mean it very well could cost them a cold record (and likely inflated their January departure too)
  10. ORH_wxman
    ORH 1F at 00z….ASOS temp there is tossed further than the BOS snow measurements at the sewer plant. That is a shame….
  11. ORH_wxman
    Getting an ASOS fixed is probably harder than getting cooperation from the IRS. They usually only fix them when it becomes super obvious. At least in the past. I just checked MADIS site and it’s been running pretty warm since late 2020 actually but there are no noticeable recent kinks in the graph. There’s a big on though in 2020.
  12. ORH_wxman
    Yeah and if they get to like -15 tonight, I’m going to wonder if they really did tie or break 2016 if all the surrounding mesos are -16 or -17. Oh well…can’t do anything about it now.
  13. ORH_wxman
    We’d weenie out over this type of cold outbreak in a good winter too. This is very rare to get a cold shot this intense. Even if it is very quick.
  14. ORH_wxman
    I’ve been noticing most of today, the mesonets at similar elevation right near ORH airport have been running 1-2F colder…You’d hate to have a wonky Asos sensor on a night like this when records are at stake.
  15. ORH_wxman
    You should smash 2016 up there. In that cold shot, you missed the core of it by a little bit but not this time…and the core of this one is a little colder.
  16. ORH_wxman
    Wind ripping sometimes does funky things to my woodstove and I’ll get a little bit of smoke backlash…but usually that’s when the fire is low. When it’s raging I don’t have that problem. I wonder if pellet stove sort of acts the same as a low fire (except just hotter)
  17. ORH_wxman
    That was a very cold stretch. Charles river though is pretty easy to freeze. It freezes most winters though I’m sure that year it was very thick and you could easily have walked on it.
  18. ORH_wxman
    Latest RAP and HRRR get -33C at 925 to BOS....that's insanity. Happens around midnight-ish.
  19. ORH_wxman
    I try to explain to people that CC warming will look a lot like a stock market chart....there is a trend up, but it's noisy. In a given month or even season, natural variability will outweigh CC by a lot. We can still get cold records....even all time monthly records....but they are just harder to get than warm records.

    Logan airport hasn't hit -10F since Jan 1957....Vday 2016 barely missed at -9F. The Logan airport site has only ever hit -10F three times...-12F in Jan 1957, -14F in Feb 1943, and -11F in Dec 1942
  21. ORH_wxman
    Down to 7.3F now...we've lost almost 4 degrees in the past 45 minutes. This is the big plunge right now....between now and about 03z.
  22. ORH_wxman
    This one is short-lived, but similar to Vday 2016, it is quite anomalous. 2016 produced the coldest readings at BOS and ORH since 1957. Not sure we quite match that this time, but can't rule it out. Wind chills will be top 3 in the past half century with this.
  23. ORH_wxman
    I've posted on the late 1940s/early 1950s winters in here before...those are some of the warmest years on record even if not quite as warm as the most recent warm winter...but esp up into SE NH and ME. Maine actually had 7 consecutive winters from '48-'49 through '54-'55 with temps +2 or higher than the long term avg....they haven't had a streak like that since....not even recently.

    Yeah it basically turned into Labrador for about a month with the sea ice extending out from the shore many miles all along the MA shoreline.
