powderfreak Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 HIE had 32F on 7/27/01 and 31F on 7/28/01. I'm sure BML will pull it off eventually too. First Ct Lake had 29F on that 7/2/92 date...not much of a growing season there that summer thanks to Pinatubo. They had a couple of below freezing lows in early July of 1962 too. Yeah those dates just blow my mind...getting a freeze prior to July 4th, that almost seems like a late season freeze instead of a fall one lol.

tamarack Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Yeah those dates just blow my mind...getting a freeze prior to July 4th, that almost seems like a late season freeze instead of a fall one lol. Only July frost I've seen was 7/31/78 in Ft.Kent. Took out my pumpkins and my next-door neighbor's beans. That year had several 32-or-below days in August, including a morning at 28. Latest 32 at my current place was 6/13, earliest 9/1. My avg growing season is 116 days, with last spring frost avg May 24, first frost avg Sept 18. That's 2 days shorter thn the Farmington COOP, one at each end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 If anything the euro got a tad cooler. I don't think anything changed. Yeah...not sure how it's mundane...it's a decently cold airmass for this time of year. For CON M-T-W the MAV/MEX has 34-31-31 and the MET has 32-30-n/a. Not bad.

I don't know....I just remember many a May cold shot with chillier temps but remember I'm not inland where perhaps it will perform better. It looked less mundane here a few days ago.

Ginx snewx Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 Euro suggests Tuesday/Tuesday evening will be the chilliest time wrt normal.Yeah but Monday afternoon with CAA will be chilly. As I stated in the original post will be close in some inland spots. Places like PVD and BDR were not included, I still think BOS has an outside shot.

CoastalWx Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 May has two different types of cold airmass. Continental polar and maritime polar. Maritime polar gives us our coldest max temps since it's usually accompanied by onshore flow and precip. This will be more continental. Certainly not the coldest airmass, but respectable for sure.

Ginx snewx Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 38 on the 14th for BOS is the record, seems vulnerable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 This cold shot looks the same as it did to me a couple days ago. Close to record lows in a few spots, but not quite. Its no May 18-20, 2002...but it will be pretty cold/frosty for many for a morning or two early next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 38 on the 14th for BOS is the record, seems vulnerable. I'll be shocked. My guess is 43 for the bottom at BOS.....maybe 39 at my house while I sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 38 on the 14th for BOS is the record, seems vulnerable. That's the 13th record low...the 14th record low is 37F. But both of those lows were prior to 1921 when the site wasn't at Logan Airport. The Logan Airport record is 39F for each day...it will be impressive they get under 40F. Don't think they will though. Probably lower 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 OT but 2/9/34 is a year pre Logan right? No, that is real...that airmass was just beyond ridiculous. Logan Airport obs I believe started in 1921. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 That Feb 1934 month is the only month colder than January 2004 at Logan Airport. Normaly you would think the coldest January on record should be the coldest month also...since January is colder than February...but not the case.

I believe the weather obs started there before the airport opened officially. Becuase there is a break in the METAdata in 1921 and NCDC also lists Logan obs as starting in 1921. Its possible that's wrong though...either way it doesn't make much of a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember discussing this with an old timer I took care of about 20 years ago. He told me people were routinely skating on the Charles near back bay that month.

moneypitmike Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Of course. Spring comes early and so do first frosts. My first frost is so much later than probalby 90% of this board. I alwalys envy the folks' reports of frosty mornings. Hard to come by up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
