Fall 2013 Thread — Northern Hemisphere (winters, january, Maine, Florida)

I've found them some of them have 7 months of subzero weather.

The ones at my latitude have 6months.

A Quebec poet:

Mon pays ce n'est pas un pays, c'est l'hiver ("My country isn't a country, it's winter")

[dunno what to put here]

In the city centre, I noticed many trees with coloured leaves. One was almost bare - they are evidently diseased.

After Wednesday coming up the Eastern U.S will start to feel the air and everyone should be feeling it by Friday. even down to Virginia where the highs might only be in the 70s there.(Euro)

NWS BTV says Euro might be an outlier (meaning standing on its own and not possible)

SOME DIFFERING OPINIONS AMONG MEDIUM RANGE SOLUTIONS REGARDING VIGOROUS NRN STREAM ENERGY PROGRESSING ESE FROM CENTRAL CANADA LATE IN THE FORECAST PERIOD.
THIS MORNING`S GFS OP RUN HAS BACKED OFF CONSIDERABLY ON SOUTHWARD PUSH OF THIS SYSTEM...WHILE THE ECMWF MAINTAINS ITS ANOMALOUSLY DEEP SOUTHWARD SOLUTION. GIVEN THE OP EURO RUN CONTINUES TO BE AN OUTLIER AMONG MEDIUM RANGE OPERATIONAL RUNS AND IS NOT GENERALLY SUPPORTED IN THE BACKGROUND ENSEMBLE MEANS IT IS NOT PREFERRED AT THIS POINT.

NWS Boston says:

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
AS THE FRONT PASS...EXPECT A POSSIBLE POLAR AIRMASS TO FILTER IN DROPPING TEMPS INTO THE 70S.

NWS Albany says if correct High temps will be October like.

LOWS WEDNESDAY NIGHT IN THE UPPER 40S AND 50S. HIGHS THURSDAY IN THE UPPER 60S AND 70S. ONE NOTE OF CAUTION...THE ECMWF HAS A SHARP SHORT WAVE TROF AND COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH UNSEASONABLY COOL AIR BEHIND IT FOR THURSDAY. IF IT WERE TO BE CORRECT...TEMPS ON THURSDAY WOULD BE ABOUT 10 DEGREES COOLER THAN CURRENTLY FORECAST.

Forecast low of 5c tonight.

12c max tomorrow.

Across the border in Labrador there is Labrador City which has 8000 people or so. And Wabush (also in Labrador) has about 2000 people.

There are basically the only towns in the area until you get further north along the coast of Ungava Bay where you have a few Inuit villages.

In central Quebec, a decent level of settlement doesn't go any further north than Lac-St-Jean, which if you look on the black snowfall map is the dot in what looks like a small I that's fallen down to the left. The stem of the I is the Saguenay River.

Settlement in coastal areas goes a lot further northeast than that, though it eventually gets sparse as well the further you go especially on the north shore of the St Lawrence.

Interesting.

Very cold. There are a few towns 1,900 miles away from me with highs in the mid negative teens.

Where would these be and these are records or winter averages I suppose, and not today?
