As impressive as the '82 temps were, I actually think the 4/5/95 cold outbreak was more impressive. It was bare ground and bluebird skies....full sunshine. ORH put up a 26/12 that day....that is beyond crazy for such conditions in early April. I remember that day vividly because I had to walk to and from middle school in that....across an open sports field too part of the way. The wind was like razor blades into your face. 

You forgot to mention that it was uphill, both ways!

what's funny is it literally was uphill both ways for me, not steep but a crest in the middle, and it was 9/10ths of a mile, they've since started bussing to my old house, but that storm happened during our April vacation too, so no snow days or fun until after, then back to school.

@CoastalWx, 

18z Euro skynet with the CAD most of the run:

Cool graphic on Tomer’s page. Strong signal for a torch .. except for us, lack of the black shading indicates there is much more uncertainty for us warm sectoring - while Central Jersey is 75 we could be stuck in the 30s/40s.

I’ve not been sold on this being more than melt and mud season. 
I don’t like the fact that the smeared out polar vortex is on this side of the north pole; it inherently means that we’re gonna have a compressed flow and fast flow in southern Canada. That’s a recipe for wedging… That’s always been there. It doesn’t mean we can’t get super warm but it just makes it really dicey wouldn’t feel comfortable going for that at this range.

Glad you had a god time.  I was in New Brunswick riding last week and had a great time. Until Friday morning when I went out to start packing the truck and found no trailer.  The trailer and sleds were stolen overnight.  The recovered the trailer later that day and have since recovered one of the sleds.  Luckily the sleds were fully insured but its a bit of a pain in the ass.

Damn, that's crazy, and sucks. I've heard snowmobile theft is a big thing up in Canada, hence the DESS key invention I suppose, but taking a whole trailer is bold.

It screams backdooring even down to Jersey.
