Figured i'd try and see if people wanted to chime in with their highest and lowest temps of this year while were in the midst of the hottest day so far(and hopefully OF) this summer.

Coldest: -14.6 on 2/4

Hottest: 99 (so far) on 7/22

Range 113.6

Did any N VT sites get to -30 or below this winter?

A number of them did. I think out coldest was -23 at the house but we are an overnight warm spot as the coldest air usually sinks below us. I know Island Pond went into the -30's at least once.

I must have missed that one. I wish the guy at West Burke was still around. They used to drop pretty well there.

So far all I can find is 1/24/11

-26 in St. J, -29 in Massena NY, -22 in Montpelier, -19 in Burlington, and Saranac Lake was quite cold that day too but yet to have found the value. Burlington I believe topped out at 97 on thursday which would make their range 116.

Well so far I only see -26 for Island Pond on the 1/24 but Sutton Vt was -31 that day.

Here is a link to a blog with a saved version of the public information statement from BTV for 1/24/11

http://burlington-we...anuary-24-2011/

Islandpondweather.com shows a low of -29.7 for the year back on 1/24/11 with a high of 95 last weed. 124.7 range.

Here's our discussion on the NNE thread at the time for 1/24/11. Looks like I was remembering was a radio station report of -42 from Barton VT on the 24th. I never saw a print verification of that though a coworker lives in Barton and she reported -37 or something like that at the time. Doesn't qualify for this thead's purpose however.

Probably about a 10 day window to go above that 88 before a rapid downhill slide.

That's what I've been hoping to hear. I think ten more days with the chance of hitting 90 or better will be enough heat for me. Not ready to say goodbye to the 80's quite yet but pretty much all set with heat wave criteria type heat.

-22 on 3/4

88 on 7/22.

110F

I'd give 1-in-4 odds for exceeding the high this year, 1-in-100 for dropping below -22 in Dec. I've yet to see -20 or lower in 13 Decembers, odd because it's happened 9X in March.

Farmington only got down to -17 last winter (in Feb) and had reached 88 before last week. Given the usual difference from my temps, I'd anticipate about 91 there on 7/22.

Largest spread I've found in Maine is at Allagash.

-27 on 3/4

88 on 6/2

115F

CAR got up to 87 last week, so I doubt Allagash has topped that 88.

Im far from an expert but I would imagine the reason for all of the March coldness is from the atmosphere still having the memory of all the cold from the previous three months.

Same reason why we can get it to snow it the mid to upper thirties in spring but most of the time its just a cold rain in November and December.
