powderfreak Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Man it is cold out there right now. Took the dog out for a quick evening walk and skies are crystal clear with almost no haze (finally) and a huge full moon. Could immediately tell it was very cold, the nostril freezing deep-breath hurts type cold. We have struggled for a good rad night here with the mins being a bit under-whelming...but it is finally happening at MVL. -18F at 8pm at MVL and -20F for HIE. LEB also tanking at -15F. That's fukkin' cold for 8pm in the evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 -5° here off a 8° high. Went sledding with the family at a big hill in town and there were a few other hardy folks out. As long you kept moving, it was fine....gotta enjoy the cold while you can. Amazing how some NNE spots are in the -20's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This must be what it's like to live in Siberia. We still have snow covered trees, occasionally it starts snowing for no reason and with no clouds... It's been a bit surreal. Had 2 renters with dead batteries and had to help an old lady today who couldn't get hers started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is growing tiresome Yeah, getting the dogs out to toilet has been a challenge in and of itself. They are like wtf man? I ain't walkin' in this sh*t! The boy and I played board games, built legos and watched videos today, no sense in goin' out, plenty of winter left for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow morning I'll try the boiling water to slush trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 2 renters with dead batteries and had to help an old lady today who couldn't get hers started. Drove through your neck of the woods today. Took my visiting English relatives over the Kancamagus, to N.Conway and back through Crawford Notch. The car thermo hit 10 in N.Conway but hovered on the negative side of 0 for most of the day. We got out at the top of the Kanc to take some pictures. Pretty cold but not as bad as yesterday at the top of the Appalachian Gap. Most of our sightseeing has been from a car with brief jaunts out to take snapshots or run into stores and restaurants. It’s been quite an experience for them the last week and a half.

WxBlue Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 7th night in row below zero after never experiencing it my whole life. Sounds about right for this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 -20F at MVL and ... ha. SLK (the cold spot) is at -9 but with 1.75sm -SN. Edit... -24F. HIE at -25F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 4 Seasons Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Pretty cool to see this for my area. From 14 to 4 back to 14F. What a difference a little bit of wind makes. I've seen a lot of stations pick up a few degrees when the wind kicks up or vise versa but usually not a 10 degree swing each hour in both directions.

Sugarloaf1989 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 -6.2F. Skiing on Monday at Berkshire East was nice, but cold with a high of 8F. I'm planning on getting out on Wednesday with temperatures in the 20's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adk Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 10 hours ago, powderfreak said: 20s would probably have people tailgating in the parking lot and skiing in bikinis like it was a 60F day of spring skiing in April. Hard to believe even teens would be 30 degrees warmer than it's been on the upper mountain. I saw a picture of closing day and I was skiing in shorts and a T-shirt. My brain couldn't compute how I was surviving outside like that. It isn't always this cold? Medium range guidance for next weekend even more impressive. -9F for the high here in BTV Saturday.....which might be the coldest high I've ever experienced. I've seen a lot of cold lows but a -9F high might be the winner. That's serious cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adk Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Good decoupling east of the greens tonight. MVL at -27 (down 2 degrees from 4am which was -25). Dewpoint is -31F so suspect it could go even lower right now. Newport -25 and Lydonville at -23F. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapturedNature Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 -10° earlier but now -2 off yesterday's high of 8° making yesterday into today my coldest day yet. The mean was 37° below where it should be (27°). I think I'll have greater ones this weekend but we'll see. I have to go back and look at my record and see what some of my other stretches are below freezing. I know in December 1989 we spent much of the month below 32 but I don't know exactly. I think by the time this stretch is done, it will be a pretty good one but we'll see when all is said and done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
