     More records have fallen here at Baiting Hollow,
NY in January '04 than in any month in the last
decade.
     This January was the coldest in history at my
station. Record go back to 1996. The temperature
averaged an incredible 23.2ºF for the month, which is
three degrees colder than even last years record cold.
 Also, the record for the second highest snow total ws
set at 17.7". Other record that fell in January were:

Low Temp: 0ºF (all time record low)
Low Windchill: -39ºF old formula {-22ºF new formula}
(all time record low)
Low Instant Windchill: -52ºF (all time record low)
Low attic temperature: -3ºF (all time record low)
Low indoor temp: 54ºF (2nd lowest on record)
Low indoor humidity: 21% (2nd lowest on record)
Low THSW: -22ºF (all time record low)
Low High temp (month): 51ºF (all time record low)
Precip: 2.43" (driest Jan. on record)
Low dewpoint: -15ºF (all time record low)
Low high temp (day): 13ºF (3rd lowest on record)
Time w/o rain: 13day period from 1/5 to 1/18 (Note
that most of the rain of Jan. 18 was freezing rain)

The last time we were over 40ºF was January 13th.
Also there were seven days with wind gusts of at least
35mph. The average wind speed for the month was
8.9mph., which blows away the old record of 7.0mph.

Whew...here's to more falling records!
