Meteorologist Tim Buckley of WFMY-TV writes on Facebook:
All 50 states have low temperatures BELOW freezing tonight. (Monday night)
Yes, even Hawaii. Tall mountain peaks there regularly get below freezing, and even get snow.
This typically happens a few times during winter, but is very rare this early in the season.
Pretty neat!
The low temperature forecast for tonight shows the cold continuing nationally, with perhaps a second night of below freezing temperatures in all 50 states:

Who chose the colours for that map? By reversing from the normal (i.e. red = hot, blue = cold), it seems to hide the severity of the cold.
I agree, the ones picked by National Weather Service / NOAA make sense compared to WFMY’s graphic. First your finger’s turn blue, then purple, then white from frostbite …
Then black when it dies.
The colors are correct… red hot, yellow warm, violet cool… think of ROYGBIV… The colors are perfect according to the rainbow!
Are you an optician?
Please check your “facts” again. The graph shows purple hues, but there is no purple in the visible spectrum (rainbow). Also “violet” is a blue hue, not purple. But yeah violet does looks cold, but purple? Not so much.
All the funky color names are losing their significance. It’s all going (gone?) digital. Primaries & B/W (as well as the usual stuff like intensities, etc.) You get things like 2R1B1W.
are we really this concerned about the colors?! Lol
That is the reason I left Canada for the Bahamas last week. It is 81 here now, going to 71 tonight.
Oh, cry us a river! 😉
Enjoy the stay. We will keep heaters on back home for you.
Heading for Maui in a few days. Glad I’m not flying out of Buffalo…and I’m not going anywhere near 10,000 feet above sea level when I get there!
Thanks but I don’t come back until it warms up, usually mid May. I don’t know if this is another 30 year cooling period or something worse but I am not about to stay in Canada and die of cold, flu or in a car accident on bad roads.
You sound like my mother. She moved south 20 years ago, and has only been back for visits since. 😉
But you omitted the high humidity – it’s much more pleasant here where, though freezing, the air is dry (admittedly helped by a few brandies).
There’s no point enjoying hot air without humidity. Do you know why sauna has kiuas [gew-us], fireplace-heated bunch of stones to create vapour?
To make hot place a hotter place.
Besides, I think the stone age people thought the vapour is connected to breath and thus, magically to life itself. You’d get spiritual benefits in sauna, if spirits were not available. Bahamas is better option, however.

Soundsto me like the Kennedy Family “Sauna On the Rocks” — Take one Sauna add copious amounts of Stoli [or your favorite Vodka — to your taste of course} — direct from the bottle into a glass and especially poured directly onto the hot rocks — sit back and inhale the breath of life
Note for an added attraction add a few scantily clad young wenches to help serve the drinks, etc.
Shaken, not stirred, and vodka only please
Ha!
But it’s a dry cold.
I thought we only said that in the desert.
Your first graph showed that even Mexico is not in any great shakes!
And understanding about polar vortexes, how is Hawaii part of NA? (Other than politically). There is a lot more cold out there than just the US (lower 48) and Canada. And yes, it is cold here!
Forget HI. What about the other 7 States?

Has anyone noticed that the cold zone during North American polar vortices is a pretty close match to the maximum NA ice extent from the last ice age?
The Polar vortex never left Canada. This is just your garden variety Omega Block. Well, bigger than usual, but it’s happened before.
Might depend what it is you are looking at … at the time.
Whether at 70 hPa

or at 10 hPa
http://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/isobaric/10hPa/overlay=temp/orthographic=-94.39,66.89,410
the above HAS left Canada.
And the above appears to me to already be bigger than last January in extent of outer rings. Winds are not yet fully developed yet though. Found wind speeds of 123 mph so far.
@ur momisugly Ric It has been a huge block at one point pressure at our place (@ur momisugly 1200 m ASL was 104.3. and the block was from Alaska way down (and along / between the Coast and Rocky Mountains) to Arizona and lasted for 2.5 weeks , right now it is breaking down is dropping and @ur momisugly 102.8 but still strong. but you are right it has happened before if my memory serves right the last time in our area (west Coast) it was in 1973/4 very cold in oct/nov, t-shirts shorts at X-mas
“Has anyone noticed that the cold zone during North American polar vortices is a pretty close match to the maximum NA ice extent from the last ice age?”
I have. I’m waiting to see a summer where Hudson Bay remains frozen (regardless of what the Arctic Ocean does)

An international team of scientists, including Martin Jakobsson from the Department of Geological Sciences and Johan Nilsson from the Meteorological Department at Stockholm University, has published a new study in Nature Geoscience entitled “Deep Arctic Ocean warming during the last glacial cycle”. The researchers have reconstructed the temperature history of the intermediate and deep Arctic Ocean during the past 50,000 years, using novel geochemical techniques on microfossils in sediment cores from across the central Arctic Ocean. Remarkably, the results show that in the last ice age, from about 50,000 to 11,000 years ago, the central Arctic Basin between 1,000 and 2,500 m water depth was occupied by water that was generally 1–2 °C warmer than in the modern Arctic. This extraordinary finding, indicating that the glacial Arctic Ocean operated in a different dynamical regime, challenges the view of a general glacial cooling of the ocean.
The Arctic region has received considerable attention due to its sensitivity to the changing climate. Of particular concern is the rapid decline of the summer sea ice extent, which this year even may approach another record low since satellite observations begun 1979. The sea ice in the Arctic forms at the top of the ‘halocline’, a 200–300 m thick layer of low salinity seawater capping the Arctic Ocean. The low salinity of the halocline layer is reflects the high freshwater to the Arctic Ocean. The halocline is also very cold, close to freezing point of seawater near -2°C, protecting the sea ice from the deeper laying warmer and more saline Atlantic Water Layer that flows into the Arctic Ocean from the North Atlantic.
The new study published as a Letter in Nature Geoscience shows that the warm intermediate Atlantic Layer was displaced far downward in the glacial Arctic Ocean, resulting in a substantial warming at depths between 1000 and 2500 m. Based on a conceptual oceanographic model, the researchers propose a mechanism for the subsurface warming of the glacial Arctic Ocean: A reduced influx of freshwater to the Arctic Ocean acted to deepen the halocline and push the warm Atlantic Layer downward. Based on their results, the researchers conclude that the Arctic Ocean has a previously unrecognized high sensitivity to changes of the freshwater input over multiple timescales, which is manifested in large temperature excursions of the intermediate water layers.
My thoughts
This article I agree with and if a meridional atmospheric circulation remains in place or even magnifies going forward Ii think this will lead to what we have at present which is more snow cover /clouds for the N.H. and thus an overall colder N.H.
In addition I think a more important temperature metric rather then how far above normal or below normal the temperature is, IS the percentage of the globe that is below freezing on any given day and how far that metric deviates from the norm.
it really does not matter if temperature say in the Arctic are x degrees above normal if the temperatures are still below freezing. What matters more in my opinion is the extent of the below freezing temperatures.
This is what can lead to a climatic change.

————–
I have not read the study or the paper you refer to, but considering what you say, there is another interpretation, different than yours that leads to different conclusions than yours or others.
One thing clear is that 50K years to 11K years ago is a long time period, which most probably while the central Arctic Basin considered as per its heat content and its warming that heat content and that warming could just be the average value in the long term.
In other words it means that the modern Arctic is 1-2C cooler than the average, which while considering the last 7K years of the long climatic cooling trend seems very possible.So at about 4K years ago the arctic basin heat content has started to decline and putting it at a point now in modern period at 1-2C cooler.
That to me is a normal pattern, as far as I can tell.
Now that does not necesarely mean You wrong and I correct, but shows a point from a different prospective.
One thing that I do still fail to understand is that in Climatology there is no any approach yet to consider the climate and Atmospheric variations as cyclic in a long term.
From the point I stand, in the time period between 50K years to 11K years ago there is at least another Interglacial (for not saying 2 other interglacials) apart from the last one.
And that paper you refer to seems to inforce that point of view but the climatologists still stubborn to consider a cyclic climate.
Cheers
I applaud “Now that does not necesarely mean You wrong and I correct, but shows a point from a different prospective.“. If only all scientists used this (very scientific) attitude more generally…..
The interglacial prior to the current Holocene was 100k years ago, the Eemian.

——————–
Ok fair enough, but if I may ask; What certainty lvl…..at 97% I would guess!
And my answer was in relation to the new study mentioned by Salvatore, which seems to put what you say above to doubt, and there is many other things that will put that to doubt and away of the 97% certainty.
For once there is large enough errors in data and estimations through that data of climateric long term trends closer to date.
One reason that comes easy to mind for what you say above to be put in doubt is the dependence on the data that depicts clearly an estimation of the most extreme, that of polar regions, as a proper estimation of climate, and also I think the dependence of the estimation relying in the Milankovic Cycles explanation, not mentioning here that failing to consider the climate at all as a cyclic function will mess the estimation of the climate state through and by a wrong aligning of whatever data there is in respect and accord to the average, or the supossed mean.
In a cycle, the most extreme points are the most extremes from the mean of the cycle.
Estimating a particular state of a cycle through “actual” data concerning that period without taking in consideration and ignoring the mean value, will produce most likely something that contradicts the cycle in question.
Different ways of approach offer different pictures and outcomes….that was my point in the reply to salvatore.
Makes a lot of difference when all possibilities considered and weighted, before certainty is assigned to a given outcome.
cheers
“…in Climatology there is no any approach yet to consider the climate and Atmospheric variations as cyclic in a long term.”
Until the climastrologists produce a model which includes ice ages and interglacials, I will continue to distrust them. Or, at the minimum, project out far enough into the next ice age.
Usually when the cold air moves over North America the arctic becomes warmer from the Pacific air flow that circulates the cold arctic air South. So it seems logical that during the last ice age that, on average, the arctic may have been somewhat warmer. Obviously having the heat in the arctic doesn’t do us much good down here.

Never underestimate the heat capacity of water and consequent vast thermal “inertia” of the oceans. It makes climate look like a zero sum game.
So Trenberth is right, the ice ages are an illusion. Never happened. The heat was hiding in the deep ocean all the time.
If the Arctic Ocean were to remain open over a winter it would become a virtual snowmachine, dropping so much snow on the adjacent Canadian shoreline it would never receive enough heat to melt the following summer. In my opinion, this would be the Uh-Oh moment when we realize the inter-glacial is coming to an end.

It explains the Dansgaard Oeschger events. Periodic upweling of warm waters ventilated the Arctic causing the rapid rise in temperature.
Something has to provide the moisture for all that ice. The Gulf source is shaky because Greenland shows that you need snow at the center of the ice sheets to maintain them. +1
My, what a big vortex you have! If we’re going to get on with this catastrophic warming, these things are going to have to get smaller and weaker. Instead, they’re being sold as unprecedented and therefore caused by climate change. But I am so old I can remember when they called these things an Arctic blast. I must be discredited or eliminated. Preferably eliminated, I suppose.
So, around here, there was a similar vortex in 1903. Oh, the Change.
You think the Polar Vortex was bad? Beware the Arctic Horcrux! http://www.cap-news.com/story.php?id=201411003
Helps keep the uninformed ignorant…
…and dazzled…
Could a meteorologist please explain the difference between a Polar Vortex, an Arctic Polyna, an Alberta Clipper, a Panhandle Hook, and all of the other varieties of weather that have caused us to freeze our nubbies off up here in the Great Lakes? Are these names that come and go in and out of style, or are favored by individual forecasters? They seem to have pretty much the same effect no matter what they’re called. Soon going to have to go by the name “Colder in Wisconsin.” Nice of them to name that last glaciation after us.
I also would like to know that since when in early to mid Nov. having all the 50 states report below freezing temps is classified as “NEAT”, That to me is a serious problem, winter in any way shape or form is no joke! Let alone when a lot of people are not prepared for it.!
LET ME CLARIFY – At present we do not have a colder N.H. but I think this could come about if the atmospheric circulation remains meridional for an extended period of time, which would serve to create the pattern we have in place currently.
AO INDEX SUB -1.0 being common place going forward during this decade perhaps.
Well, maybe YOU don’t think the N.H. is colder right now, but I moved to Florida to assure I stayed warm and now it is below freezing HERE too! Oh, the humanity!! 😉
Seriously, though, we have double digits of “100 year+” records for cold and snow being broken. IMHO, it IS colder now. (And not just America. Look at the 100%+ snow anomaly recently in TURKEY and Iran.) There are some very strong cyclonic highs over the water areas sucking heat out of the oceans, but that air returns with mass and velocity at extreme cold down the center of the polar region, then spreads out over the land headed back toward the warm pole of this heat engine. At least for the moment, this view (model animation) shows it well:
http://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/isobaric/1000hPa/overlay=temp/orthographic=-49.64,58.18,336
IMHO it is the contrast between a warm ocean (from decades of excess UV) and a colder than “for a long time” polar vortex from lack of UV in the upper stratosphere that causes the strong cyclone up / vortex down effect and the loopy jet stream.
http://chiefio.wordpress.com/2014/10/17/gonzo-gonzalo-and-cyclone-up-vortex-down/
and that ends with the land areas of the N.H. being colder as we are the outflow from the arctic.
All that extra albedo will have to factored into the climate models. NOT!
And here in Buffalo we’re getting slammed by this lake effect snow, which is being driven by winds running the full length of Lake Erie.
Original forecast was for one to two feet …
Oh well … even the models can get it wrong …
So far, I’ve got about 18″ and I’m on the northern edge of the band of snow … a few miles north of me the sun’s shining and there’s only an inch of two of snow on the ground …
And about 5 miles south of me the village proper is already at 4′ (48″) of snow … and the storm total estimate has already been upped to 6′ of snow by the end of the week … and it’ll be at least another 6 weeks before the lake gets covered up with enough ice to cut off the lake effect machine.

This is my new favorite viewer for weather events. It’s clear to see that while the U.S. freezes, the Arctic experiences a relative heat wave: http://cci-reanalyzer.org/
@barry
> … U.S. freezes, the Arctic experiences a relative heat wave
So, let me guess, the warming part is ‘climate change’ and the freezing part is just ‘weather’? Is that how you would like to view it?
Actually, both the warming and the freezing can be explained by planetary-scale oscillations in the polar jet, possibly induced by hurricane Nuri, which simultaneously diverted the polar vortex into the States and also shoved some warmer air off the western coast up into the Artic.
You can see it happening right now in this GOES West water vapor loop (IR channel 3, 6-micron IR)
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/west/nepac/flash-wv.html
The intensity of the cold blast is a measure of the temperature difference between the polar and midlatitude regions. A warmer polar vortext would produce less cooling.
So why do even the warmists seem to be surprised by this wintry November cold blast?
I’m not surprised. It’s a result of arctic amplification.
You’ve got it backwards. Arctic Amplification predicts the poles will get warmer, thus _reducing_ the likelihood of these November wintry midlatitude episodes:
Arctic warming linked to fewer European and U.S. cold weather extremes, new study shows
So you should be surprised. Twice.
Barry – a simple question:
What would it take for you to stop believing in AGW? Would the onset of glaciation be sufficient?
What facts would be required for you to change your position?
Barry, TonyG has asked a very reasonable question.
May we see your view on it?
A
Arctic Bay is -24 C . That sounds like a real heat wave doesn’t it?
@jones
I have asked the question often, of many people. I have not yet received an answer from any whom I have asked.
Hi TonyG,
Thank you for that. Indeed, it is a most confronting as well as interesting question to ask. I myself used to be where a lot of the “alarmists” are right now and I find myself wondering just how they can go on believing the way they do but this is also from my perspective of having “converted” to the position I now hold.
Another interesting study is the Sir Harry Flashman person as seen elsewhere on WUWT who is now clearly simply trolling given the opportunity he has had to give reasonable responses put to him.
I suspect the motivations go much deeper and are explained very well by Patrick Moore in the context of groups who simply hate the current political and economic paradigms with AGW giving a suitable platform from which to attack them.
It has always been the way of things and when the case for AGW dies an inevitable death they will have no compunction in just moving on to another platform to continue their good fight from there….
Let’s be honest with ourselves and say we do exactly the same thing but within different arenas.
I find it all quite fascinating in truth and have reached the stage of life where I can be detached and not emote about it all.
Thanks again, sorry for the rambling tone…Keeps me thinking.

You should be so lucky, here we had Obama prattling on about saving the Great Barrier Reef for his grandchildren and demonizing coal,
Well, somebody’s gotta say it.
Where’s global warming when you need it?
I know really.
Instead on top of the cold, we get the alarmists babbling about how climate is not weather except when they say it is, like if the Arctic has an unusually warm day.
Bu, bu, bu, bu baby you ain’t seen nothing yet….
…What comes next, will be something that we will never forget.
There is a race to going on:
1) Solar magnetic cycle 24 slowdown’s affects on climate (Cooling and the start of new and long term weather patterns) Vs 2) US presidential election. (The persistent low latitude coronal holes on the sun’s surface that generate solar wind bursts make it a race. ) If Svensmark and Tinsley’s analysis is correct, the question is not will there be significant cooling of the planet due to the solar magnetic cycle slowdown but rather when the cooling will occur and how much cooling will occur. (I will provide an overview of the mechanisms and a more detailed explanation as to why there was a delay in experiencing the cooling due to the sudden slowdown in solar magnetic cycle 24 the next time a thread is started to discuss solar magnetic cycle 24.)
A question from a still relative warm Western Europe, how does the MSM report this ” event”. It’s the weather of course not the climate.
According to CNN, third video, this has nothing to do with climate change.
http://www.cnn.com/2014/11/18/us/cold-temps/index.html?hpt=hp_t2
There will never be climate change; there are temperature fluctuations as we see with the seasons of the year, but no “climate” change. There is tropical, dry continental (hot/cold), marine/oceanic, and arctic air masses. The rest is just weather produced by those air masses mixing.
13F here this morning in western Md. Went out on the highway, had another breakdown & just about froze my butt off in the strong winds. Replaced the alternator & hopefully that fixed it, but a breakdown in mid-summer would have been a vacation in comparison.
Right, we all have to be worried about a few tenths of degree warming. /sarc
