June In Southern New England...............


Mr Torchey

Recommended Posts

The most notorious part of the infamous summer of '16 was the cold snap in early June. Juen began promising enough and on the 5th temperatures in New England climbed into the low 30's Celsius, for example Salem, Mass., reached 32C. However, during the afternoon of the 5th thundery showers broke out over New England and later in the day a cold front swept across the region, dragging cold air down from Canada in its wake. The next day, the 6th, was much colder. Some places were as much as 27 degrees colder than the day before (Ludlum 1989), and in parts of Vermont and in Boston temperatures reached little more than 7C (Ludlum 1985, Laskin 1996). Conditions turned colder during the next 2 or 3 days and precipitation that fell became increasingly wintry in nature. On the 7th snow fell over the northern highlands of New England, snow flurries fell in parts of Connecticut and Massachusetts (Ludlum 1976), in Salem and Boston for example, and away from the coast, snow fell in June as far south as 42 degrees north (Lamb 1995). Near Danville, Vermont snowdrifts just over 50cms high were reported (Ludlum 1985). Contemporary reports spoke of prolonged falls of snow, snow settling and lying for a couple of days and very windy weather at times (Ludlum 1985). However, by the 10th and 11th conditions began to improve, although mornings were still frosty.

By the 12th June 1816 temperatures were rather more normal and in the 20's Celsius, and there they stayed until the 22nd to the 24th when something of a heatwave developed; during these 3 days temperatures around New England widely topped 32C. On the 23rd a high of 37C was recorded at Waltham, Massachusetts (Ludlum 1976) whilst on 24th June Salem, Massachusettes also reached 37C (Ludlum 1989). The Boston area also reached the high 30's Celsius during this time (Ludlum 1985).

lol....We're not having anything close to that this year.

Also.....as far as H85s go in Canada...April didn't seem that anomalous...

I think they've been running well above for the past week. No comparison really. Normal temps in March onward and slightly above for May. No major eruption even fractionally like 1816 this year.

What a morning, nice and chilly in the house, nothing but cool spring weather, sne is the new San Diego. So many forecasted a torch this month looking at threads and the June forecast competition, yikes potential major bustarama.

I don't see much warmth at all here in SNE. Might be a day or two that gets warm later next week, but it looks a little blocky with a semi permanent trough to the northeast.

He might have a game that day... poor kid.

We need Kevin to downplay the next event like this last one. Thats when last event became a lock to be prolific...he downplayed it while we were starting to get very interested in the thread the day before.
