Just one day after Boston experienced its coldest temperature since 1957, weather whiplash ensued and temperatures spiked 60 degrees or more in just over 30 hours.
Shots of Arctic air as frigid as what New England experienced in recent days are rare — only coming once every 5 to 10 years on average — and are not usually as intense. What’s especially unusual is how fleeting this weather was.
Providence climbed 57 degrees during the same window, climbing from minus-9 to 48 degrees. That was also a record; bookkeeping dates back to 1948 at T.F. Green International Airport. The previous record was a 53 degree leap from 5 degrees to 58 degrees in February of 1949.The most dramatic warm-ups were over Upstate New York near the Tug Hill Plateau. While Rochester’s 30-hour jump was officially 52 degrees , some places saw a spike of closer to 60 degrees.
