The coldest air so far this season will descend on New York City on Thursday, accompanied by icy winds and single digit wind chills.
Temperatures will only be in the lower to mid 20s on Thursday with a wind chill making it feel like the teens, which would make it the coldest Thanksgiving since 1901.
Cold winds gusting to 30 mph at times will make it feel even more uncomfortable.
Thursday’s high is projected to be 29 degrees. Prolonged exposure to cold can lead to frostbite and hypothermia. The city’s Office of Emergency Management has issued an alert for the extreme cold.
The coldest Nov. 22 in NYC was 23 degrees, which was back in 1880; the coldest Thanksgiving high was back in 1871 with a high of 22.
Chilly weather will continue into Friday for all of the shoppers, as highs only “recover” into the middle and upper 30s.
It’ll be a bit milder during the weekend, but a little rain is possible.
Brutal and Extended Cold Blast could shatter ALL RECORDS – Whatever happened to Global Warming?

You just can’t win with the Fake News Media. A big story today is that because I have pushed so hard and gotten Gasoline Prices so low, more people are driving and I have caused traffic jams throughout our Great Nation. Sorry everyone!

The bitter cold is definitely caused by global warming: since people are opening up their freezers to take out frozen turkeys to cook, it is cooling down the atmosphere.
We must encourage people from using frozen turkeys and in that way there will not be a major impact on the world’s climate……

What an idiot….
He said the same last winter when it was exceptionaly cold
Here is a map of global temperature anomalies from today. https://climatereanalyzer.org/wx/DailySummary/#t2anom
Chareidi amiti he’s not idiot for saying the same thing twice. All the scientists pushing global warming are idiots when it’s obviously getting really cold and they are having a harder and harder time telling us when it’s gonna rain and snow etc but they’re so confident about what the weather will be in 50 yrs. it’s comical worthy of all his scorn
Climate is not the same as weather. I can just as well use weather anecdotes to imply that it’s getting warmer, but that’s irrelevant. It’s irrefutable that average temperatures have been rising. Global warming skeptics claim it’s not caused by human activity.
Will everyone please get out their dictionaries (or, if you don’t have one, go to Wiktionary) and look up the difference between “climate” and “weather?” I’ve been paying attention to what’s happening, and what I’ve seen is that the summers are getting ridiculously hot, while the winters are only colder at the beginning of the season, and then are mild for the rest of it. I’m old enough to remember when it snowed on Sukkos. Can you?
