The "March 2015 New England cold wave was notable"? Its only March 3. Don't you think the page title should be February 2015 New England cold wave, or just "the New England winter of 2015?"Grace and peace thru the Lord Jesus (talk) 23:49, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Went well beyond New England

[edit]

Among records, many were not in New England. The Weather Channel showed, using NWS info, that five cities broke February temperature averages; Cleveland and Syracuse were two (I can't remember the other three but I'm sure that there are RS out there listing them). For snowfall for February, I know that South Bend, Indiana, broke its record.

I also agree that March needs to be stricken from the article name or at least amended. Mapsax (talk) 02:51, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

How is this consistent with the WP definition of North America? It should simply be the 2015 Northeast winter. Grace and peace thru the Lord Jesus (talk) 02:16, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There have already been more expansive (not North-centric) cold periods which have not received articles. I really don't like the idea of a 2015 North American cold wave article being named for what was cold only for the northeastern quadrant of the United States. 2015 Northeast cold wave isn't a great title, but it is more representative in my opinion than "North American".

  • Reply - "Northeast" by itself is vague, and should include the words "United States" or "North America". --Jax 0677 (talk) 14:26, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Northeastern United States cold wave? North America is unacceptable as it is ludicrous to name a period that only affected the northeastern quadrant of the United States after North America when there have been far more widespread events which actually affected the Great Lakes, Great Plains, and even much of the western United States.

Other like articles are 2013–14 North American cold wave anf November 2014 North American cold wave though these also are not consistent with the WP definition of North America. 2015 Northeastern United States cold wave is better than "March 2015 New England cold wave was notable..." And which appears to be ending this weekend. But it was not mainly cold that was notable for the NE winter, but snow. About to break the record in Boston with over 107 which almost all came in the last 45 days. http://www.boston.com/news/weather/weather_wisdom/tweetbost21515.gif. Therefore the 2015 Northeastern United States winter would be better. But change that the 5 day old March cold wave quickly!

Is there any objection to moving this to 2015 Northeast United States cold wave? Inks.LWC (talk) 21:14, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No objection at all. If this is even needed unless a lot more is added, since this stub is basically a copy of what I put on the 2014–15 North American Winter article. Grace and peace thru the Lord Jesus (talk) 19:10, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding this page

[edit]

I have boldly redirected it back to its source section at 2014–15 North American winter. I understand that the creator did not agree with such an action, but (from brief analysis), no significant information has been added to this article that is not already present at 2014–15 North American winter#Northeastern United States. You still have the right to object to my redirection of this article, but should you desire that it be restored, I would suggest that you expand it beyond what it was at the time I redirected it. You could move it to "Draft" namespace to do this. Dustin (talk) 23:05, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
