snowman21 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Its weird tbh. But i think ur sarcasm is on point. Bos barely gets to 20 today about -14 departure on high at least -10 on the low and its "ho hum". Shows you how use to below normal temps we are. We need -12 for bob in the new Siberia BOS will put up a 56/29, 29/9, and 22/7 or a 3-day departure of -3.3 for this cold snap. That's not really that impressive for a 3-day stretch.

That's not really that impressive for a 3-day stretch. Why would you include a day with a high of 56 in a 3 day" cold snap". With that logic i bet a 4 day stretch would have less impressive stats but why include it anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Single digit lows are meh in the deep of winter. Got to get down to zero and below before its memorable to me. It's 26F today off a low of 8F and yesterdays high was 30F off a low of 10F. Below normal, sure, but nothing noteworthy that I will recall. The -12F the other day was far more impressive with a high the prior day of 18F. Those stand out. I thought the highs yesterday were pretty impressive, even for Jan.

N. OF PIKE Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 BOB how do you get 26 today for a high. At 2pm tan was 6f above , nearby PYM,OWD, PVD , Are they downsloping off dump in E Providence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Why would you use Monday ? Our cold snap in SNE is Tues-Thurs I was wondering the same thing....using Monday makes no sense unless we lived 400 miles west of here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right ...the first day isnt a cold snap , so im missing why its included . This thread is for 2 day cold snap. Mind boggling as this Rodney dangerfield of cold snaps wraps up.

Still, highs in the mid/upper 20s is not note-worthy. Highs in the teens are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of 2-day BOS January departure standard deviations, it's a -1.5 sigma anomaly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highs are in low 20's today around you which is about -15 departure on highs. Damn cold, we prob get a handful of - departures like that a winter. It seems like we get even less of them the last decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Lol when PVD, OWD, and PYM are all closer why would you use something that is off or further away? Serious question, maybe I'm missing something or you have a bit of L.L in you It's not. From a distance perspective, PYM is the closest, followed by GHG and PVD (which are damn close) and than OWD being the furthest away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
