Definitely some confluence up north on this run...keep that there and we might do OK down here, otherwise it's pushing 60 unless we wedge of course

Coming from the Mid Atlantic, I dont expect to see snow until after Thanksgiving...I can remember snow one time on Thanksgiving, it was maybe an inch or so. Even December didn't produce very much until the last week or so in the month. I was in college at Millersville University from 2001-2005, I remember it snowing a lot in December during those years but that was about it. Point is, living up here, even in the Southern most areas of SNE, I have seen a lot more snow in October/November/December over the past 7 years than I ever did in 30 years in PA/DE. I have also seen a lot of snow in March up here, so if winter is defined by snow chances and cold weather then December and March are more winter like than February has been (outside of maybe last year and 2015). BTW, I actually saw snowflakes the past 3 days with temps never reaching 40, not bad for the end of November....

17.1⁰, coldest day of the season so far...up to 32.2⁰ with clouds and a few flurries around

Final snow tally of 0.4", L.E was 0.04" Wintry day with a high of 33.1⁰

Yup, beautiful out. Briefly moderate here, it has been snowing off and on since 430 this morning...probably close to half an inch....more than expected

Still snowing lightly, first 0.25" of the season....28.7⁰

And just like that, first flakes with a coating here

RGEM still has the inverted trough, just shifted eastward....NAMs aren't very interested

progressive past 240? GEFS didn't look too bad out in LaLa land....

I was outside with my 3 year old swinging while the wind and rain/possible mangled snowflakes were falling. Nothing that I could legitimately say was snow....didn't count in my book, lol. We are worlds away from eachother, the hills to my NW seem to swallow up the moisture coming from the direction. My 8 year old is obsessed, pulls up the forecast even before I do...He was tracking hurricanes well out into the Atlantic this year, proud Dad, lol......

Wasn't there some crazy inverted trough that dumped up to a foot of snow around here? It was well before I lived up here, so I have no clue when it was, but remember someone talking about it....

Just saw that....I believe the 0z CMC showed something similar. It's only 48 hours out, what could go wrong?! Lol, honestly any snow falling from the sky would be a win at this point

It has that feeling doesn't it? Couldn't even squeeze out a single legit snowflake yesterday. This is probably the latest in my short 7 years up here to at least see some snowflakes, let alone accumulation. Half the time I have seen them before the end of October...The way I look at it, the less we see, the more memorable they will become as the season barrels on.

Still haven't dropped below 20⁰, I assume that ends tonight. Amazing to see the temp "skyrocket" the second the wind picks up. True radiator pit...

still yellow, no leaves on the bushes though....has to be the warm/sunny afternoons as we have definitely been quite cold at night

I have a Norway an oak and bradley pear that are taking their good old time...it will probably be December at this point

Welcome to the club, 21.7⁰ here...still 24.8⁰ at this very moment

All of my power tools/chainsaw/weed whacker/hedge trimmer are battery powered(milwaukee brand). My riding mower and push mower are still gas, but hope to switch over soon. As far as the vehicles, I think the plug in hybrid is the way to go for now, at least until the charging infrastructure changes. I test drove the new Sorento plugin-hybrid was fun and on my short list.

All rake here, I have 2 kids capable of raking...I rake the heavily accumulated areas, then bag mulch the rest with the mower so I can add them to my compost and garden beds.

48⁰ with some sun and a breeze, feels like a typical November day....just saw this though, they seem a bit confused.

I agree... I am actually in the need for an AWD vehicle to fit the Brady bunch. Used cars are priced like new cars and you can't find a decent new car that you don't have to special order at a premium price. Kicker is I want something that doesn't guzzle gas, so the chip shortage is hindering things quite a bit.

All the more reason to stick with the basic needs and screw the rest of the "stuff". Unfortunately these supply issues have/will trickle into the basic needs department. Honestly, my kids do not need this season's Barbie nor do I need the newest Iphone or 8k tv...Honestly the environment needs senseless consumerism to take a backseat for quite some time.

Wind on the backside ftl, power out for the first time since we moved in last summer....

SVR Thunderstorm Watch up for the entire region....

Another morning in the 20s, 23.7⁰ for the low....sun is out, not a cloud in the sky. Oaks holding strong here, the red maples let go yesterday...still quite a bit of leaves on the trees though. Took this yesterday.
