During my college years in the early 2000s, I seem to remember having one of these storms in early December, multiple years in a row. Any similarities?
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say someone in CT will see their first flakes of the season by the end of the month, most likely mangled and 35⁰ at that, but hey it's something. Then, we torch....
Yeah, let's not go for the worse part...I don't have time to sweat any details at this point. So let's just get some snow and a nice Spring starting in March.
After the last 2 seasons my expectations are so low. So at this point get me above 25 inches for the year and it will feel like a victory. The pattern has been pretty consistent, even with the gulf cane's showing up every few weeks. But things start to look different into Turkey week....
21⁰ this morning, teens are almost a lock tomorrow morning
22⁰ this morning, had some clouds early on, otherwise we would have made it below 20.....the Norway maples are dropping leaves at a steady rate this morning, finally. Oaks will hold on until January, stick season is here
We have been so dry around here that fires are starting from just mowing, countless mower fires in the past week. One recently on the hill, behind our caldesac. Kinda scary knowing how dry and fast these fires are moving.
Just stacked our final 2 cords, at least we get to run the wood stove tonight. Finally feels like fall for a change....sub 20⁰ here by morning? Already down to 32.5⁰.
I have been noticing blocking starting to show up in the 10-15 day on both the GEFS and EPS. I would assume the 12z GFS run took that look into account this run, I will assume the 18z will replace the 12z trough with a ridge around here. But at least it is nice to look at, there is cold somewhere in North America to snow....I guess that is the first step at this point
Hit 82.4⁰, despite some afternoon clouds. Still 80.2⁰ at 4:40 in the afternoon. The low was 41.7⁰, so a nice 40 degree swing today, just finished up some wiffle ball with the kids and ended sweating like it was summertime. No complaints....
Just in the past 20 minutes or so, we have gotten hazy with a strong smoke smell....I would assume it is coming from the fire near Pawling NY
Indian summers are nice, but pretty sure they aren't suppose to be accompanied by raging wildfires.
One of the things I hate about being in the valley....Everything has been killed off by the freezes last week. The tomatoes were just getting ready for round two, before the freeze. I had the dog out around 1030 a few evenings ago, it felt and sounded like early to mid summer. Something isn't right.....
0.05" here for the month...has to be some sort of record at this point.
Just saw parts of New Mexico had more rain in a few hours than they typically do in 6 months, seems to be a reoccurring theme around the world recently. Tons of rain, then nothing then back to floods......
