 4 inches butler nj still snowing with some sleet mixed in 

Measured 3.5" at 11:30 and it was still coming down.

Still all snow here, seems to be at least 2 inches.

If I remember correctly, we record the snow depth before the changeover occurs?

Measured 4" here.

Everytime I go to walgreens there are different people working there 

Yeah I mean it's not surprising.  Everyone is burned out from trying to give vaccines on top of normal workload, which is already bad this time of year.

They need to add an appropriate reaction I can use for this post.  It's not funny.  It's not sad.  It's infuriating.  

Honestly, no one knows the half of it.  This whole thing has made me rethink getting into retail pharmacy. 

People have no clue how much actually goes into typing up prescriptions, verifying them, giving shots, phones ringing, checking in orders, etc.  You can't find technicians to help out either, no one wants to apply.  I mean we see sick people all day, who knows if it's covid or not?  There's a lot of illness going around besides covid though, I can tell you that.

The thing that annoys me though is that people still complain about wait times, hold times, and if things aren't ready when they just were at the doctor a half hour ago.  You want to come fill it yourself, or do you want quality and accuracy?

People have no respect for retail workers general, but you'd think on the pharmacy side it'd be better.  Everyone is overworked and many pharmacists in the district are leaving at an alarming rate.

Threats over 

We just have to accept the fact that December is pretty much done.  Washout next weekend with 50's.  Still have a solid 2 months of winter afterwards anyway.

Had TREMENDOUS downpours between 1:10 and 1:35.  Also had very good sized hail.  This picture was an hour after the storm ended.  That's bigger than a pea if you can't tell.

Peaked my interest with 17/18.

Probably my 4th favorite winter of all time.

56 inches total snowfall with 28 falling from March onwards.

Early season snowfall.

Great warmth for hearting savings and outdoor activities.

Yeah that was definitely a good season for backend snow.  Spring was definitely welcomed after that.

Back to back nights in the 20's.  Growing season is obviously done.

Monday-Wednesday looks stunning, 60's and sunny.

A little over 4" for the 24 hour total.

The extended EPS continues the above normal temperatures into November.

Starting to remind me of Fall 2015 a little bit.  AN week after week.

Pretty solid downpours here.

This cool down is down to 3 days. That is the funny thing after all that.

Tues thru Friday look down right warm

It does get warmer this week but it'll be different than the last few days.  Lows will be a little more seasonable and plus the dewpoint will not be in the 60s like today.

I still hear katydids every night. 

Yeah I was just thinking that, still sounds like an early fall night.

no one buys a copy of the almanac if it says warm/snowless...cold and snow sells so they go with that every year like JB does

Very true, look back at 18-19 and 19-20, I guarantee Accuweather was calling cold and snowy.

Really solid downpours the last 20 minutes here.

my house temp was 83.4 this afternoon the a/c needed to be turned on.  No way no how would I -EVER- open the windows the allergens are awful and humidity is my mortal enemy.  If I could invent an antimatter bomb to annihilate all humidity I would do so in a heartbeat.

 

Wow, how did it get up to 83 in the house?  It's 73 in ours and we haven't run any AC in weeks.

upton says it will be pushed south by high pressure developing over NE

Yeah I guess we have to see.  Seems like there are some breaks out west in PA.  Clouds keeping temps lower than expected.

Finally able to get back on the GOES website.  It was down for awhile.

Temperatures are already in the low 80s in Central NJ just south of the warm front.

Wrightstown    MOSUNNY   81  66  59 S3   

Is it supposed to pull north and give us some breaks of sun?  Stuck at 62 here which is really underperforming.

I have my A.C on right now

Awful for October 

You need AC for this?  That explains why you melt in the summer then lol.

On clear chilly nights with no wind, the difference in temperatures can be impressive. Not only the difference between city and rural but even where a temperature sensor is located. For example, I have a vantage vue located about 20 ft. off the ground and the temperature is 54. About 30 feet away is a vantage pro sensor 6 ft. off the ground, which is what the NWS says is the correct height, and that reading is 51.

Yeah radiational cooling allows the outer suburbs to drop very quickly.

On a muggy night in July, the heat island will still make it warmer in the city than imby, but sometimes not by much.  Cool nights like this however I'm easily 10-15+ degrees less than the park.

Easy +10 through mid October. Highs in the low to mid 70s with some days near 80. 

Lows not getting below 54-55. Probably another top 5 warmest month if not higher. 

Very scary stuff

Follows the trend of recent years where we get some brief cooldowns in between the warmth like Bluewave mentioned above.

Pretty mild though, especially overnight lows considering it's October.

Nice shots Don.  This hazy smoky air reminds me of earlier this summer.  Certainly doesn't have a mid-September feel. 

I'm loving this extended warmth.

the only way to do it is to just shut the roads down so people cant travel, that will take the decision making process out of their hands.

And then you have to stop every vehicle to see who's essential and who isn't?  NWS puts out the warnings, it's up to the public to read and interpret them.
