Last year the cold didn't come until the end of the month. I had my 1st frost and freeze on the 30th. Had a light freeze the other morning but still waiting on my 1st hard freeze.
I saw Josh's post on Facebook. He got into the inner eyewall of Melissa with a lowest pressure of 927 mb. He has a detailed analysis of it if you wish to read it. The storm slacked just enough to claim he hit the edge of the eye.
Colors are really starting to pop out here except for the Bradford Pears which usually come later anyway but the colors are much earlier than last year.
The jog to the west right before landfall caused him to miss the eye. Looking forward to his analysis when he gets back from the Philippines. I was hoping another chaser nailed the eye.
