Lol same as here on the coast, 33.6F. --- Growing season is a relative term for us. We picked 40 lbs of unripened tomatoes before the first frost on 10/9. Of that about 10 lbs are left to ripen or process. Picked a pint of raspberries yesterday from cold hearty, late season variety plants. Lettuce and spinach ready to harvest in the cold tunnel, and will reseed after for a harvest in March or April. Plus carrots to pull in late Novie, to be replaced with garlic bulbs for next year. This all on 1/4" acre in suburbia with ample room for accurate snow measurement.

Interesting, we bottomed out at 36, usually we have opposite results at this time of year. We had our first frost and first freeze on the same day, 10/9. My buddy has a boat in PWM and all I hear from him is how much the marina drags their feet every spring and fall. They seem to operate on their own schedule with no care or communication. Ball's in their court and they know it.

Incredibly still night tonight. Past 4 days of rain and mank have helped preserve whatever semblance of warm season remains.Remarkable that on 10/26 in central New England you can still hear the forest vibrating with life. Don't remember that ever happening this late in the season.Whatever critters weren't killed off by the freeze 2 weeks ago are making their sounds loud and clear tonight.

That's where their radar site is located (Hodgdon, ME). NWS Gray put the map out.

I've at least got BOX to cover me somewhat, but you're in the dead zone.

I don't care what people think I look like. All about comfort, baby. Shorts ftw straight through to Novie. Is this what happens when grass doesn't grow? Whack rocks instead? 54F

2.10" as of 7A, puts us at 4.98" since Thursday.

Just like in winter

Not sure if that's in response to my post, but I understand why you can't make that comparison. T'Was a (poor) attempt at self-depicting humor.

And in other 'senseless tragedy' news. Wx community losses one of their own despite numerous red flags. https://www.tucsonsentinel.com/local/report/101322_meixner_killing/ua-profs-felt-like-sitting-ducks-as-they-pleaded-help-before-meixner-killing/

Ouch, that does stink. 2.85" in the 8 incher. I usually don't use it for non-frozen, but - let's be honest - this is the most liquid it'll see all winter.

This needs to be a quote tweet. What a donk.

Stratus ftw

would be surprised. i'm sitting at around 2.25" about 3mi from the jetport. This last slug coming up might do it though.

terrible timing with that heavy band on your doorstep. GL.

it was straight up tropical for about 20 minutes there. seeing quite a few reports of trees down and urban flooding. Nothing "wild" or memorable per se but definitely notable.

I mean it had to come out for winter anyways sooo

Co-workers dock on Sebago

picked up a half inch in about 25 minutes

Did you get a drone?

30.6F off a low of 30.0F My pepper plants would like a word with your people.

Agree on that part. I fit that description and have hit 35°F twice this year, neither with a frost. Already down to 39.7°F, with a dew of 33, so we'll see.

I guess I'm just well endowed acclimated. 58/51

Not quite at the full shrinkage stage yet as Casco Bay is still very swimmable, at least from the beach. Guessing water temp around 58F? 70/51 COC city.

BN since April but, as you said, absolutely fine this summer. (7/1 map includes a very dry July.)
