Doinko Posted May 15, 2022 Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 Apparently Hillsboro recorded a -14 low in 1930 and a -10 in 1950! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverFallsAndrew Posted May 15, 2022 Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 Silver Falls average low was 14.4F in January 1949. The only month on record where they averaged a sub-20 low. However, they are missing January 1950, and January 1930 and 37 were likely very very cold, but their POR didn't start until 1938.

Deweydog Posted May 15, 2022 Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 11 minutes ago, Doiinko said: PDX hasn't recorded a sub-20 low since 2016-2017. Obviously some of that has to do with UHI, but Hillsboro hasn't recorded a sub-19 low either (19 in Nov 2019 and Feb 2022). I hope we can somehow get a sub-20 low next winter. Maybe we're paying back for the 11 degree low at PDX in 2017 and the 3 degree low at HIO in 2017. Kind of fluky thanks to either seasonal timing of air masses or timing of shortwaves during cold episodes. But it’s also a pretty good illustrator of the fact we’ve been on the periphery of most cold patterns since 2017. Tough in those instances to eliminate mixing and/or cloud cover. 2 Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't want such a devastating flood but certainly wouldn't mind following that analog otherwise. You wouldn’t get one. There are a lot more dams on the Columbia now than there were then. The Fraser, on the other hand, is still free-flowing, so a 1948 replay is still very possible here. 1 1 Quote It's called clown range for a reason.
