This is where my camp is-it’s really low but nowhere near last years. If I could post a photo of me walking across the bridge that is normally under water I would. Still-another crappy year where they drained the lake sI much to accommodate the kayakers and rafters on the yough river in Ohiopyle…..not caring about us boaters at the yough lake-such a shame to drain this gorgeous lake so the money makers stay in business…

Winnipesaukee continues to track just below the 1982-2024 minimum level for the date. Although it looks like estimated inflows are currently larger than discharges, so might stabilize or come up a bit.

Some improvement in the drought situation locally, but still dry in most places. The dry grounds really absorbed a lot of the rain, so area lakes and rivers are still quite low.

Despite a couple inches of rain last week, the reservoir levels have continued to decline. Should drop to 1,399' tomorrow. Further research shows it got down to at least 1,364' last year, maybe even a couple feet lower. Not sure of the final tally. Still aways to go before reaching those levels again, but with the current forecast could be looking at 1,380' later in the month.

No precip too.

Accuweather's early winter outlook calls for below normal snowfall (28-35") and near normal temperatures. Sounds like a repeat of last winter.

Down to 51, temp dropping like a rock. Maybe we make a run at 42/43.

We were saved from topping the futility chart by a March snow. Even if it didn’t happen most of us broke an inch. In 22-23 we were nowhere near an inch and there was zero chance of March “saving” us.

Here's how the second half of October has fared after a warmer or colder than normal first half since 1990.

Perhaps, but if so, it seems to be especially enhanced this year

High of 70 today at GSO with mostly sunny early October skies. Let’s see if we go down into the 40s tonight

Finally saw my breath this morning while walking to my 8am classes in Charlottesville!

So after next Wednesday temperatures are going to drop into the low 60s. They may may get into the mid-60s here and there after that, which is a average for this time of the year, but I don't see above normal temperatures heading into The latter part of the month.

Absolutely. Plus it'll be colder for longer. It's science.

please no. That would be almost as bad as 2016-2017.

what type of tree is this?

Great news

Next weekend looks nice with highs in the 60s. Looking forward to it.

Tons of Siberian snowcover early this season. Hopefully it continues through October when it matters more. I'll take any help I can get to bring us a more snowy winter.

A few HPS lights on those babies and you'll be harvesting into Thanksgiving

Hmmm it doesn’t seem torchy to me

There always tomorrow.

Our forecast is showing either a major front or backdoor front coming thru around the 8th or 9th. Low 80's before, low 70's after for about 5 days before warming up.

What a beautiful 1st day of October. After a low of 58, we had a high of 76. Dew points in the upper 50's and a brisk NE wind made for a very nice fall day.
