Butt cold
 
Mt Washington, NH

Northern New Hampshire is my wife's and I favorite region in the country. I love cold weather (it's the opposite of hot weather) and we are thinking about moving to NH in about 4 years. But I have been showing her weather reports from New England this week and even to me, that's quite butt cold back there. I know Mt Washington is the most extreme weather station in the continental US but it is fun to see such a low "feels like" number.

For those back there in the Northeast, please stay warm.

My current conditions in my hometown in CT:

-3 (feels like -26)

Today we hit a lot of -37 with the wind chill and that was in early afternoon! You're right...it sure is cold here!

Ryche 01-15-2004 10:57 PM

Well, I was going to say some snide comment about that being nothing compared to Minnesota, but DAMN, that's cold.

The rest of New England isn't any worse than what we had last week though.

bbor 01-15-2004 11:39 PM

-23 in Toronto.Dunno what it is with the windchill.

tucker342 01-15-2004 11:45 PM

-43 degrees with no windchill? That's crazy.... I can't even imagine what that would be like

Imagine having sex with a pint of Ben and Jerry's.

Imagine getting a full body hug from Hillary Clinton.

it's early, I have to go to work, and I can't think of any more comparisons. Damn, I really wanted a third one.

somehow "frigid" doesn't really do it enough justice.

Current weather is listed as "freezing fog". WTF is that?

As for the Wind Chills...
at the high of -23 and average wind of 63mph that gives you -67
Low of -45 average wind of 63mph gives -99
Log of -45 top gust of 103mph gives -108

SirFozzie 01-16-2004 07:13 AM

This is not normal, this is the lowest we've had in a couple decades, and for this day, it's the coldest ever.

I WISH we had some global warming here :)

corbes 01-16-2004 07:24 AM

Love that:

"Wind: Northwest at 85 gusting to 103 MPH"

Freezing fog is when liquid fog droplets freeze to surfaces, forming white rime ice. This is very common on mountaintops which are exposed to low clouds. It is equivalent to freezing rain, and essentially the same as the ice which forms inside a freezer which is not of the "frostless" or "frost-free" type.

WINDCHILL!!!
It is difficult to convey just how cold it is outside. Further still, it is in fact hard to fully appreciate the cold with layers of synthetics, down, and wool protecting every square inch of our bodies. There is a simple solution to these problems: Take your gear off and run outside! (we are trained professionals, do not try this at home!) Pete, our summit manager, promptly informed us that this was not in compliance with our “no skin exposed” policy, but then left the room to check on the furnaces. Upon our return to the building, shivering uncontrollably, we were still baffled as how to explain the severity of the cold. Jason came to the rescue stating, “It is 100F warmer in here than it was out side!” Tim then went one step further by factoring in winds that were gusting to 92MPH. The combination of the air temp of –39F and the wind brought the wind chill to a remarkable –97F. That gave us a grand total difference of indoor and outdoor “effective” temperatures of 170F!

Today marked the 3rd consecutive day of record breaking cold temperatures, and tonight could well be the main event. There is the possibility, based on some of the model data, that temperatures will fall below our all time low temperature of –47F. This would not only break our record but also the official State of New Hampshire record. All eyes are on the thermometers!

Why would anyone step outside into weather like that and then pose for a picture??

Kinda ironic that a guy from Georgia would post this...

:D

What is butt cold anyways? Is that different from balls-ass hot? What about suck-your-nuts-into-your-throat cold?

Buccaneer 01-16-2004 08:41 AM

And yet they found a hiker dead on Mt Washinton this week.

Airhog 01-16-2004 08:48 AM

I dont even think a well diggers ass is this cold.

Ummm...imagine Bruce Willis at Ashton Kutcher's bachelor party?


I got nothin'.

John Galt 01-16-2004 09:20 AM

Walking to the train this morning was an exercise in frozen stupidity. I nearly lost my balls from the chill.

rkmsuf 01-16-2004 10:00 AM

Have a frozen pipe said mother nature last night...

Even covered extremedies are at risk in this cold. Luckily it's going to be a balmy 10 or 20 this weekend in NH...

I walked a block down the street this morning. My nuts were the size of a dime.

Going from a nickel to a dime isn't so bad...

Ok, I'm getting tired of hearing about the Northeast cold snap now. New York City reached a record low of -1....wooo. We're supposed to be -10 on Sunday. No big deal, that's just part of winter. On the bright side, it gives you a great excuse to stay inside and do more 'interesting' things.

The Afoci 01-16-2004 04:46 PM

-1. Come to Fargo. That is summer weather. Either that or 100 degree days with ungodly humidity. Fargo, weather so bad, hills and trees left.

johnnyshaka 01-16-2004 05:07 PM

C'mon now...try sitting outside up in the rafters of Commonwealth Stadium and watching two hockey games in -35 degree weather!!!!!

Now, that's living!!!
