  1. 1.67” of rain so far at mi casa. Good soaker! Let’s fill those snowmaking ponds
  2. I grew up in Italy. It’s a surprisingly big country from a climate perspective. Right now you could be making snow angels in Courmayeur or hanging on the beach in Tropea, so the climate really depends on where you’re going!
  3. 25.3 this morning, coldest of the season
  4. 27.3F for a low here... not quite the coldest we've had, but close
  5. Well this mornings GFS has snow for those visiting on Columbus Day weekend. At least if the foliage is gone they’ll have something to look at!
  6. It seems we are approaching peak here… agree, Columbus Day is going to be well past peak. I tell people every year come early but nobody listen. Much rather pay premium price on Columbus Day to see those sticks than lower rates and smaller crowds a week or two earlier when foliage is still ON the trees !
  7. The radar looks radar benign doesn’t it?
  8. 32 at mi casa. Gonna be a cold one
  9. I’m up in Acadia. Surprised how much warmer it is here than back home, and the foliage has barely started changing while at home it’s gotten quite bright
  10. I’m prepared! Plants are all in. Just hit 40
  11. Nice rainbow tonight at sunset
  12. I think my average is around Sep 9, but I've seen it as early as August 17 in my 8 years here
  13. Here’s the ritual frost date photo
  14. Dammit we have frost. All my plants are outside, was not ready for this
  15. 34F here. Fall is coming...
  16. Spent a lot of time skiing Pila as a kid. Great mountain but gets crowded!
  17. That’s where my sister lives. My favorite area in the Alps. Sud Tyrol (Alto Adige) is a bit more upscale but there’s something more authentic about the Aosta Valley - and I love the stone and wood architecture. So scenic. Every year that we go back we lean more and more towards the Alps and less toward the coast. The Italian coastline is gorgeous but sooooo crowded it’s become unpleasant unless you go off season.
  18. They also opened a new tramway connecting Cervinia on the Italian side to zermatt on the Swiss side, giving easy access to the ice cave. Very cool!
