If you are going to be up in Randolph all winter, its easy to deal with the -30F days....stay away from the mountain. Its much easier to pick and choose which days to head out when you live so close and have season passes.
True..guess more like a month plus--mid-late Nov for spots outside of 2k+. Nov 2018 was super snowy for lots of spots, but I think it was mostly mid month and later if I recall.
Obviously not taking this verbatim, but do expect some PF picnic table shots. Ridiculous soaker next weekend on Euro, prob would be feet of snow for more than the just the high elevations if it was a few weeks later.
I've never even been on the Kanc, but always here stories about the backups around peak foliage..no chance I would go near that on a weekend in early Oct..
Stein made a visit to my front yard. Backyard barely holding on. About 25 days since any rain more than a heavy drizzle. Couple inches this week hopefully.
Yesterday morning view in the Eastern ADK's near Schroon Lake..great foliage viewing during the boat rides
A couple from sunny day a few days ago. Last 2 in SVT.
I was over in Lake George area today and seemed like very little change, like surprisingly little change even in the higher hills..colors didn't start picking up until the drive back home when I got to the Taconics and Greens in SVT.
Right, I'm not saying you went all Kevin and said it was going to be a sea of brown like he does most years.
There probably will be spots, even higher up little more dull where they radiate----hollows, etc.
I mentioned that in a post a few days ago to CoastalWx, I noticed that some mid slope PWS around here were staying in the Mid 30s some of those cold nights and that it would prob still be good in those elevation hillside zones.
