Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA large arctic high built southward from eastern Canada early on January 17. At the same time, deep low pressure settled in over the Canadian Maritimes. A strong pressure gradient developed between these two features, resulting in a northwest wind averaging between 15 and 30 miles an hour across eastern New York. At the same time, temperatures plummeted to between zero and 10 below, from the Mohawk Valley south, early on that Monday. The combination of the very low temperatures, as well as the strong wind, produced dangerously low wind chill values in the 40 to 50 below zero range. The dangerous wind chills persisted well into the midday hours, despite bright sunshine.
