smokinandjokin Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 For all of you out-of-towners soaking up the sun in the south and west, you may want to consider that Buffalo has been a real hotbed recently. After one of the warmest summers on record, January was rarely below 32 degrees, and it seemed was in the 40's and 50's for days and weeks at a time. Buffalo News Article Interesting: After remaining unfrozen in only two of the 50 winters prior to 1996-97, the lake has remained unfrozen in two winters since, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Steve McLaughlin, who said this winter has a good chance to be the third. The first week or so of February is projected to be back into more normal, colder temperatures. Hopefully that will not equate to a huge dumping of the ole lake effect.

Movinon Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Terrible for the snowmobile enthusiast. I flew up last week and had to drive to the Tug Hill Plateau where fortunately they had somewhat ideal conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meazza Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 usually in this area, it is generally around -30 degrees celcius (5F) which is extremely cold but it has been mild at around -4 degrees celcius (31F). That is not normal. The mildest winter i've ever been through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 32'F = 0'C How can 31'F = -4'C? -4'C = 24.8'F according to a conversion calculator I have and -30'C = -22'F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
