  1. No freeze yet or in sight here in the lowlands. Grass is green, flowers are thriving. I wonder if I see a freeze before I leave the tropics on Dec 1.
  2. It's been one of the most beautiful Octobers that I can remember. Arctic blue sky, perfect temps, no rain. It's not that dry. The trails i hike in the woods are moist like they usually are from November to May. The shorter days and low sun angle doesn't dry things out.
  3. I decided to take the day off and hike up Sugar Loaf Mountain. What's with the hazyness today? Low lever moisture? Wildfire smoke? Chem trails? It really limited the view and dulled the fall color. It was still a beautiful hike.
  4. Same. I think there's potential for some really exciting weather. Not just possibly big snow events. Big wind events, big rain events, crazy temperature swings. All fun stuff.
  5. Yuck. Glad I'm headed out of the tropics for the winter. I've seen more snow in one hour where I'm headed then what's forecast for my area the entire winter lol
  6. It would be lol. Watch it be dryer and colder than last winter. It seems like it's always the opposite of what humans think will happen. I've been humbled by mother nature so many times.
  7. It's starting to look drier next week. The trend is our friend for us business owners that operate outdoors. We're having a strong finish to a fantastic season. I'm looking forward to some rest, peace, and snow on Tug Hill this winter. How about that polar vortex disruption in the forecast? Wow
  8. Mild up here on Tug Hill at 1500'. Barnes Corner is reporting 43 degrees. (Just practicing. I'm still in Maryland where it's colder at 38).
  9. Right here. I'd say probably by Nov 10th. I've had a few light frost already which is pretty cool. This has been one of the nicest Octobers in a while.
  10. Flowers here are alive and well. Plants are still going strong. My climo here is so hostile towards the cooler seasons lol
  11. I've seen it take until almost December. Nothing new. There's been more light frost this Oct than I ever remember. This area has a climate similar to central NC. We don't do cold well.
  12. More perfect fall weather. What an epic stretch of classic fall weather. I don't mind the lack of exciting weather this time of the year. It's been absolutely beautiful.
  13. It sure is making for some amazing fall weather. It's making for a smooth finish to the season for us seasonal business guys. It looks like another beautiful day on tap.
  14. It's been beautiful. I've seen white roofs here more then once. That's early for my area.
  15. Right? What a beautiful fall that has unfolded. These sunny mild days and cool nights are going to bring on some high quality fall color. I'm pretty excited for upcoming peak color.
  16. Hell, even way down here in Maryland, 10 miles from the Chesapeake Bay we've had frost. Pretty early for around here. My winter home on Tug Hill seems like it had frost in September lol
  17. I'm moving up to Barns Corner, Tug Hill on Dec 1. I'm looking at forward to learning all the different species of trees up there. I know all the trees here in Maryland. I can identify trees by the bark, leaves, and crown shape. While I'm playing in the snow I'll be studying the different trees species. Sorry so the banter. I get excited when fokes talk about trees.
  18. Big ole ocean storm off our coast. Big ole ocean storm moving towards southern California. I don't care what JB says or any computer. The signs of a very exciting winter are definitely starting to emerge imo.
  19. White oaks are super underrated. I know there's not a lot of them in New England. We have lots here in Maryland. The thing about the oaks and hickory is that they turn late. I call it second peak. White oaks get auburn and purple. The reds oaks get bronze, and the hickory trees get gold. I live how the backdrop is gray from bare softwood trees during second peak. Oaks are the king of the forest.
  20. Yes sir. Coldest morning of the season so far here in the lowlands. 35 in my yard as well. I think we have our first light frost. Early this season. Winter- 1, Nino- 0 so far.
  21. I'm moving to the snowiest spot east of the rocky mountains. Barn Corner NY. I'll be at about 1600' elevation on the Tug Hill starting Dec 1. I'm super pumped. I lived up in Carroll County on Parrs Ridge for a couple winters. I was all pumped for a better climo. Still sucked lol
  22. I figured they'd be -18 this morning. Meh Managed to hit 39 this morning!
  23. I'm also a few miles from the South River. Typically my area doesn't see frost until November or even December. My climo is more like Richmond or central NC. One reason I'm moving for winter lol
  24. We won't see a frost in our region until December lol. Not even cold here. 42
  25. It's really coming down here east of DC. Much heavier rain then I expected. Radar also looks pretty impressive.
