New England Cold wave of 1857. January 1857 was the coldest month ever recorded in New England. Average month temperatures of 16.7 °F (−8.5 °C) in New Haven, 16.8 °F (−8.4 °C) in Boston, and 19.6 °F (−6.9 °C) in New York City remain coldest months on record in those cities. The worst of the cold descended on New England on January 22 with January 23 being one of the coldest days known in the region. In Bath, Maine a temperature reading of −52 °F (−47 °C) and in Franconia, New Hampshire −51 °F (−46 °C) were recorded. In Norwich, Vermont −44 °F (−42 °C) was recorded. Boston suburbs of Malden and West Newton recorded −30 °F (−34 °C) overnight. Boston temperatures for January 23 never rose above 0 °F (−18 °C) all day and Nantucket Island was connected to the mainland by ice. In New York City, Erasmus Hall in Brooklyn reached a high of 0 °F during the day and the Hudson River froze over solidly enough for people to walk across to Hoboken.[

CON has a -37° in Jan 57, but it isn’t “official” since they weren’t using a max/min thermometer yet.

A severe cold spell you may not know about happened in Feb 1855. Caswell's weather diary from Providence RI states that on 6th and 7th, mins were -14F and -15F with max barely above zero. Then on 8th-9th 12.5" of snow fell at his location (within walking distance of Brown University where he was a professor). At that same time, Toronto had lows of -25F (on 5th and 6th) and daytime highs below zero (-6F on 6th). Caswell's diary runs from late 1831 to early 1860 with very few interruptions. The winter weather from 1854 to 1857 was exceptionally cold and snowy, an even colder version of 2013-16 for snowstorms of note. 

I don't know of any other N American data from 1855, sure there would be some though. Feb 1855 was also very cold in Britain, their third coldest February of 367 years of record (mean -1.7 C) ... only 1895 and 1947 were colder. The coldest part of the month in Britain happened mid-month to 20th.  

1857 was-50 in NH

Just being a dick. Long range forecasting is hard...only way to get any better is falling in on your face enough (not suggesting you did). I think I have another 22-32" to go IMBY this season.

That would give me my 56 I had thought I would get post NY

Well hopefully we can get something this week. Because as far as I’m concerned, if we miss everything since the storm before MLK and go into the warmup with nothing, that’s a fail to the much talked about favorable pattern. Myself included in that.

Patterns can easily flip. There’s no reason why this one can’t. EPS was ugly imo. Not sure what to think.

Here's the answer I got from AI when I plug in the  -1.9F others reported:

"Boston's January 2026 weather was 1.9°F below normal, with a monthly mean temperature of 29.4°F compared to the typical average of 29.9°F. The coldest temperatures occurred mid-to-late January, with lows dropping to -13°F on January 26 and -18°F on January 21. Despite the cold, snowfall was moderate, with 10 snowy days recorded, and total precipitation at 1.76 inches, which is 52% of the normal January rainfall. The month began with milder conditions, peaking at 53°F on January 15, but rapidly cooled as the month progressed."

They show a mean of 29.4F and an average of 29.9F, a difference of -0.5, hardly -1.9.  And Boston certainly didn't get to -13F and -18F during the month.

If this is how AI is going to work, I'll never use it again.

I was referring to your suburbs remark

Hard to believe that Boston was only 0.4 degrees F below normal for January.  I'm sure many suburbs around the city were much colder than that.

Agree Steve.  Looking pretty decent going forward…we’ll have quite a few chances this second half.  Not every one will hit. Or will be good for everybody, but we’ll have opportunities. All you can ask for.  No complaints here so far.  

Neighbors kids made good out of the driveway piles.

We had a 2 foot plus snow  storm and now they bust my balls because I said buckle up. Shit half these mofos think we are NNE and have no clue what climo is. Trolls gonna troll I guess because they sure as hell whine like 6 year olds over frozen water. Paybacks a bitch

That probably is a month not repeated for a long long time. The amount of storms and ferocity can’t be matched. 

We definitely never say never. But yeah that was incredible

It sucks but at least it’s deep winter .. If we can get a few more snowfalls before the pattern flips to mild and warm you mentioned , most of us can be normal snow YTD

Flip to mild and warm?
