Again not the historian that others are but as of yesterday BDL and BDR are sitting at 14th coldest winter on record. Coldest at BDL since 1996. Coldest at BDR since 2014. Won't last, but impressive through the first 2/3 of met winter. 

Edit: 18th at BOS, coldest since 2004.

That’s damn impressive . This winter is legit

If you choose the threaded stations…

BOS is currently 39th out of 154 years

BDL is 19th out of 121

PVD is 25th out of 122

CON is 35th out of 158

That’s helpful, thanks. 

At least for BDL that’s higher end but not all-time. Guessing we backslide a bit with the coming warm up.

That’s pretty damn good. I subtracted out 1904-05 that was missing December. It’s tough to compete with yore and that 60s-80s period.

Haha ART pulled a -36°. That site is like Peter Sinks lately.

No top 10 coldest anywhere though vs everyone out west seeing a top 5-10 warmest. 

It's been cold but nothing historic however it likely feels colder because its been a blowtorch for nearly a decade.

Pulled up the temp data from TAN. Pretty impressive lows.

 

 

same for OWD

Another cold night tonight; BOX has me at 8F wonder if we dip lower?

Lol, already down to 6F here at 8pm.

Woke up to -17 at the cabin. ADK Park 1800’ ASL. Was hoping for -20. Cold has been more impressive with its longevity than extreme temps. Case in point, snowboarded on some skidder trails on my land on snow that was 2 weeks old and felt like it just fell. That’s like Montana dry powder.

Just to amuse people… ORH schools have a 2 hour delay due to temps.  lol

You gotta’ wonder if tomorrow morning ends up colder than this morning was?

I’m assuming at this point you can probably commute on the rivers up there?

It still surprises me to see open water on the rivers. I guess it’s mainly were the current is faster but you’re not far off.

Back when BTV radiated... they used to put up some impressive lows.

-18F at BOS is the most impressive though of those.
