Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Back to reality, that was fun. 50/51 here now. Still above normal but the big fun is over with a slide towards average, slightly above/below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazey Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I believe so. It was posted on our local weather forum. I'll provide the link when I get it. Here is the link to the station in NS reporting 86F. Took a few days as the raw data is not accessible to the public. http://www.climate.weatheroffice.gc.ca/climateData/dailydata_e.html?timeframe=2&Prov=NS&StationID=27742&dlyRange=1999-01-01|2012-03-22&Year=2012&Month=3&Day=01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Dailies (monthlies)... BOS +27 (+10.6) BDL +24 (+11.4) PVD +23 (+9.4) ORH +30 (+11.8) Also, as far as I can tell, these monthly departures have never been seen at any of the four climate sites through the first 23 days of any month. Dec. 1989 might compete. It was double-digits below normal for many stations, and though the coldest was just after the 23rd, the mildest day was 12/31. (Unfortunately, I don't have access to my Excel data right now, so I can't prove anything.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Unfortunately, I don't have access to my Excel data right now, so I can't prove anything.) Dec 1989 and Feb 1934 are the biggest departures on record for here anyway. Dec 1989: -14.3F departure (from 1981-2010 mean) Feb 1934: -12.6F March 1945 is +10.6F. Feb 1979 was -10.5F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Dec 1989 and Feb 1934 are the biggest departures on record for here anyway. Dec 1989: -14.3F departure (from 1981-2010 mean) Feb 1934: -12.6F March 1945 is +10.6F. Feb 1979 was -10.5F. I seem to recall that December '89 was a double digit (more than 10°F) departure at BDL at the time using what would have been the 1950-1980 mean and had been the coldest December on record. It was a great month to be in Lyndonville, VT! I would think that the departure would be even more now given that the normals have risen some after the 90s. I recall talking to a fellow met (at the time) and thinking that we'd never see a departure like that again only to have January 1990 be so warm! What about January 1994? I have that as a larger departure from my 28 year mean than December '89. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dec '89 won't be matched in our life times most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
