I think all the snow cover can insulate away some of the arctic attack.....lose power..then its a big problem very fast.... I worry about this in multiple places as you know each winter..hope to be in town Monday or Tuesday.. - In southern Maine we are being punished for the mild winter of 09-10 this month....

btw 12572 zip forecasted 5 f for the lows overnight.... already 3 and not thinking it will be much warmer around midnight.....

Hey Sean...glad you found your way over to this new BB . Wow Re: that -7F. I hope the pipes haven't already had a problem there - but no bad news from the tenant. Tomorrow night definitely looks frigid. Hope we get a good storm next week then.

Rick it was forecasted at +7 for the Rhinebeck area last night... but our low (milan FD rt 308) -8F . THAT IS A HUGE BUST...

Before we get to the storm....we have the bitter cold tomorrow night and Monday. I wonder how far below zero it will get in the Mid Hudson Valley. The NWS point forecast says -7F in Saugerties. I am considering going down and putting a space heater in the garage underneath our small house in Saugerties that we rent out. The coldest I have recorded there this January was -2F so it isn't the greatest radiational spot, but tomorrow night looks colder. Back in the super cold winter of 1994, we recorded -24F at that location. My all time record there was -26F in January 1982. In that 1994 outbreak some people in the coldest hollows of Saugerties had -30F.

-7.4F Rhinebeck Town/ Milan FD.
