Record Low Potential For Coming Cold Wave

Recommended Posts

I'm quite confident we will see some record lows with the coming cold snap so I figured it would be worth to start a thread regarding that.

 

Record lows to beat for SEA:

 

2-18 - 20 (1990)

2-19 - 22 (1990)

2-20 - 25 (1955) ... I want this one!  To break a record from the great 1955 would be awesome!

2-21 - 25 (1957)

2-22 - 30 (2005) ... ridiculous low hanging fruit

2-23 - 27 (2011)

Winter 2023-24 stats

 

Total Snowfall = 1.0"

Day with 1" or more snow depth = 1

Total Hail = 0.0

Total Ice = 0.2

Coldest Low = 13

Lows 32 or below = 45

Highs 32 or below = 3

Lows 20 or below = 3

Highs 40 or below = 9

Our best bet in SLC is a record low of 6F on the 21st. Record low maximums of 25F on both the 20th and 21st are reasonably possible to break.

Winter 23-24: Total Snow (3.2")    Total Ice (0.2")     Coldest Low: 1F     Coldest High: 5F

Snow Events: 0.1" Jan 5th, 0.2" Jan 9th, 1.6" Jan 14, 0.2" (ice) Jan 22, 1.3" Feb 12

What year did they cut over from the courthouse to SeaTac?

 

Sea - Tac records began in 1945.

That record of 30 is utterly horrifying.

 

Hard to believe that date has threaded the needle for so long.  It's almost a lock for it to fall this week, but clouds could make it close.

SEA did break the record low max on 2/21 by 6 degrees.  The new record is 34 which beats the 40 set in 1993.  I would say the record low of 30 today is sure to fall.

SEA broke the record low of 30 on 2/22 when the temp dropped to 26.

 

SEA has already tied the record for 2/23 with a temperature of 27 at midnight.
