Down in BDR today it's too warm it feels unnatural.

Pretty much on track in CT. The wet summer is helping the leaves stay greener a tick longer:

Peak foliage timeframes
The leaves will change in the northern parts of the state first, around Columbus Day, and then move down into the valleys and down toward the shore. Here are estimated peak foliage timeframes for each section:
Connecticut Northwest/Northeast Corners: October 3 – 8
Connecticut Eastern and Western Mid-State Counties: October 16 - 23
Shoreline and lower Connecticut River Valley: October 24 - 30
Southwest Corner: November 7 - 14
Those are strange timelines, there's basically one week where it's peak nowhere between 9-15.
Based on the way things are progressing I would probably go
Northwest and Northeast Hills October 12- 18
The remainder of interior Connecticut. October 18-26
Shoreline October 26-November 4th

You ready for your 80's today?
Mostly sunny to start today, then should see partly to mostly
cloudy skies this afternoon as a mid level cloud deck over wrn
NY/PA advect eastward. Despite these clouds temps should be on
the warm side, with highs reaching 80 in near the CT river
valley which should be one of the last areas to cloud over.Unfortunately solid overcast here and 63 currently, while clear just south of me.

77 for the high. Beautiful day here in torch valley.

Have you been up north to look? Reports/maps for Maine, compiled from observations by Maine Forest Service rangers and foresters statewide, point to a week or less late.
It has not been as wet up your way so that makes sense as well. I'll be up there next weekend with my parents and family to close the cabin at Flying Pond, hopefully it's good color.

36.9 for the low.

47 here, I'm guessing 38-39 for a low.

Sneaky cold night here incoming it seems...clear skies, calm wind and 51.8⁰ already.
52.3 here. Radiators mounted. Temps will probably level off after midnight with the clouds approaching from the west and the return flow of milder air.

Beautiful Friday afternoon and weekend here. We take.

Seems there may be something affecting the maples around here. All across town the leaves are turning a dull green brown and drying up. Looks awful. Setting up for a dud foliage season locally.
Noticeable here in Enfield as well and we've had a ton of rain, certain maple trees have just turned straight brown and started dropping like a plop in the bowl.

That is a pretty healthy looking cell near Walpole. Not bad for after 10:00 p.m in mid September.

Another Fall foliage season is fast approaching. What effect will the record rainfall and warm September have on our color? Looking forward to the photos coming first from the mountains of NNE. Hopefully Mother Nature puts on a good show.

To this day, the February 5 2001 storm still remains my favorite here in the valley. Even though I got a bit more snow in the 2011 blizzard- 25" in Ellington and 2013-24" in Enfield . Getting 23" inches of snow in about 11 hours in Springfield Mass with thundersnow when the forecast as the storm began was 6 -10. There is just something special about dramatically exceeding forecasted snowfall amounts on the day of the storm, especially in an area that tends to consistently underperform.

Man I woke up late this morning what happened to my derecho?

Radar looks like northwest Litchfield county up into the Berks will be largely spared from the second wave of moisture.
