  1. Check back in a bit. We still have few hours of waiting to go.
  2. The show haven't start here yet. 27 F at DAW.
  3. Agree it's a bit high. I like 3-6" range here and there.
  4. I knew you're in GYX's CWA. I probably should've word it differently to "they were like this..."
  5. Yep. GYX's adjustments between shifts are more aggressive than anywhere I've been to. GSP office (covering mountains of North Carolina) would start conservative before working their way up or not changing anything. GYX like to be aggressive and stay on top of current models rather than working their way toward the solution slowly.
  6. GYX was like this with the flip-flopping at times last year too. Hilarious stuff.
  7. Feeling comfortable with 3-7" for Dover. Nothing too wild.
  8. Sometimes I still can't believe I live in an area where this is a regular stuff. That said, 6-8" would be a very impressive start to the season!
  9. I'd bet most of that is clown maps doing clown map things. Look like there's some mixing in there that could exaggerate the total and I doubt it'll fall as 10:1 ratio.
  10. Honestly, I don't think that'll ever change especially after days of cold rain
  11. This is ideal for me in New England. Warm November so we can switch over to chilly pattern in December. Funny thing is, I'd be upset if November torches in North Carolina because 70s/80s is not my idea of fun to enjoy autumn weather there. 50s/60s is perfect for this time of year.
  12. I don't believe so. Didn't realize you're a MAC user.
  13. Huh that's interesting! I think calling it "downslope" was clearly poor choice of word, but you know more about your own area's geography than I ever will in my whole life. But I figured at least the snow was coming from Mt. Mansfield's orographic effect as the wind was WNW. I was a research assistant for a study on orographic effect snow in mountains of North Carolina so I had some idea on what was going on.
  14. That's what I did. I hiked up about quarter of the mile to that spot you're talking about for the famous angle (the second picture from top). I don't remember how good NC fall foliage was last year (I was up here), but 2016 was awful because of the wildfire smoke to point it wasn't healthy to hike.
  15. That was a fun photography spot when I went in 2015 (aka the last decent foliage season there). It took me 45 minutes to get one shot of Linn Cove Viaduct completely clear because tourists kept stopping in middle of the bridge. You're right, I've seen way better colors there... but beautiful pictures anyway!
  16. We just peaked and have a lot of leaf drop too. I'd say S NH/Mass is borderline between normal and delayed foliage season. Apparently it's way overdue down south by weeks.
  17. Not bad! Mountains were covered in the mist of snow showers so I couldn't tell what was going on up there. However, the town of Stowe itself (1,000 feet?) had a nice burst of flurries sticking to everything for about two to three hours. It was really impressive for the downslope region.
  18. I forgot the CNE definition exist. But agree we're milder than folks up north.
  19. I was up in Stowe on Sunday evening. Certainly impressive to have dusting on my car when I got back to it after dinner!
  20. Better late than never, but saw my first snow of the winter in Stowe couple days ago. It's coming.
  21. I'm in NNE and I'm not investing into storms until then either.
  22. I saw that from friends. That's three poor years in the row going back to awesome foliage season of 2015.
  23. I think that was me. paint.NET is a good, simple, and free program. Less of a learning curve than GIMP. Got the job done when I created graphics back in my blogging days. Download: https://www.getpaint.net/download.html
  24. High elevation areas of western North Carolina are pretty good too.
  25. Nothing against anyone personally, but chasing in a major hurricane is just dumb. Glad it appear everyone in the chasing community made it out.
