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
