I like the description, "decidedly cold". You think? Nice archive. What's more surprising is there was a high of 12 at ORH, so BOS was colder.

Right, but it makes a difference where the siting is. Just like ORH used to be 500’ lower in the city. That 1875 though. True yore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1880 the population of Worcester was about 58,000 people, making it the 28th largest city in the country. But there was probably little or no heat effect like today's cities.

There probably is a margin or error too, so I don’t read too much into it. But for Chris and Brian to pull out the scrolls for 1875, truly was impressive.

Do you have any of the obs times for CON from back then? I find it hard to believe BOS was 10F at midnight and CON was 25F. Maybe the last ob of the day for CON was 7pm or something? 1875-11-29 39 25 1875-11-30 25 -17 1875-12-01 25 -14 1875-12-02 28 -5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 12z EURO/EPS show storm potential along the New England coastline in the next 72-120 hours. Followed by a ridge over the eastern US leading to warmer temperatures and calmer conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 12z GFS didn't show the nor'easter on the EURO and EPS mean, let's see in the next few frames if the 18z GFS is closer to the coastline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Wow 12z GFS shows the potential nor'easter for mid week dropping 27mb in 6 hours, imagine if that was on the benchmark with cold air present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rimetree Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Depending on placement of the low, and which model to believe at this early stage, could mean snow vs. rain here. Should get a better idea by 12z tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted November 23, 2018 Author Share Posted November 23, 2018 EPS doesn’t exactly have the pig but more like losing the ridge north of AK with the pig to follow? Here a pig, there a pig, everywhere a pig pig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted November 23, 2018 Author Share Posted November 23, 2018 I’ll tell you what. Yes the ensembles are giving us the pig but it’s pig light. The cold vortex remains on our side of the hemisphere and we may well have it pretty transient...like maybe 1-2 weeks max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
