ground is covered here too

thermometer outside at 7:30 showed 12 degrees, not sure if it got any colder than that or not

Another light dusting early this morning and my wife sent me a video of one of my daughters playing in falling light snow around 10 a.m. 

light dusting of snow at the house this morning

Had some flakes mixing in this morning, nothing stuck at the house though. Had to go up the hill to around 1600-1700 feet and there was a light dusting up there. Nice to see.

 Some photos this morning.  Beautiful colors this year

60 at 4 pm, not sure what the low was as I leave for work at 3 am. need to eventually get some kind of digital weather station.

Thank you everyone for the welcoming, I am looking forward to the forum and the observations. I am currently at 46 in West Topsham, VT at 7 pm. Air feels crisp.

Looking at a topo map, looks like you could be in a decent radiating spot, elevated 1200-1300ft but in a slight depression surrounded by higher peaks what looks like on all sides.

 

Yes that is exactly correct. We own about 20 acres, mostly forested except about 4 acres cleared right around the house, which may help the radiation as well.

Hi mreaves, thank you for the welcome. I am in West Topsham, so not far from you and am bordering the NEK. I hope to get the wife and kids further north when I'm done working. My oldest daughter loves the cold. I tried to attach some pictures of the frost but the files are too large. Saw some wood stoves burning yesterday morning and randomly throughout the last two weeks.

Hi guys,

Just wanted to introduce myself,  my name is Jake and I live in Vermont. I've been monitoring these forums for about a year or so. I'm not very knowledgeable about how weather operates, but I've always been interested in it and especially the microclimates of Northern New England. I wanted to let you guys know I got my first frost yesterday morning. I didn't get out to my outside thermometer until about 7 am yesterday, it read 34 at that time, may have gotten a little lower though. I believe I radiate well in my spot as I have hills on either side of me and a gradual upslope behind the house. Anyways, sorry for the long post, but I will try to give weather updates as the fall and winter begin. 

Jake
