I was down to 25 at 11pm, I assume that they was a little icing overnight but I'm at 34 now which is fine by me, I would rather not deal with freezing rain.
Didn't make a coating over here but did manage a dusting. This combined with the falling snow made for a nice evening walking and looking at Christmas lights here in the park.
While I don't know much about them I find micro climates very interesting so I'm always looking for more information on them.
Light snow showers/flurries in and around Goshen in the past hour.
Check that, I guess I needed more coffee this morning, I see that my low was 17 or 16.8 for those who go to the tenth.
Oh, I don't know if I'm smart enough to explain it much more but I've wondered if I fall in the warmer porion of that image too.
True I guess I misspoke a bit, I was thinking more in terms of cold air drainage, forested areas, that sort of thing. This isn't the best image but I don't have much time at the moment.
What's your elevation there?
We'll see if I get that low but it should be the lowest of the season for sure. For whatever reason raditonal cooling is hit or miss IMBY. It seems like I tend to stay a bit warmer but there have been a few instances when I radiated very well and wound up colder. I haven't been able to figure out the reasoning but I sometimes wonder if my weather station location is a factor as it sits on a little hill in the yard with a 4-6 foot drop off on three sides. Anyone else think that this could be a factor?
I assumned when you menyioned the lower Hudson Valley you meant south of Orange/Dutchess counties. I would considered my end of the Hudson Valley the lower end of the Mid-Hudson if that makes any sense.
I had the lightest of dustings on my car at home but as I drove into Middletown early this morning there was a decent coating with a few fender benders.
I'm home today so I could watch the temp drop 17 degrees in an hour or so from what I remember (I was cyber shopping with my wife so I could be a bit confused
Its a ways off still but from what I'm reading in in the other threads about the 12Z Euro sounds like we could be sitting in the same spot that we were last year with the exception of the last week of Feb
