  1. Unusual compared to my old location, which sat nice and low and butted up against miles of farmland. My new location with its higher elevation hasn't been as conducive to the radiational cooling, at least not to the extent that my last place was. Although your memory is much better than mine, so it's possible I went cold earlier than you the last couple of seasons from my new spot too.
  2. Low of 31 with some light frost around. Believe this is my first subfreezing temp of the season. Tomorrow looks gorgeous.
  3. Low of 42 here with .03" of rain. Another new one today, as the national low of 15 comes from Grantsburg, WI. Looks like that rain tomorrow night should be moving in right as the Hempfield vs Manheim Township playoff game kicks off. Rats. Me and a buddy were thinking of taking our boys to the game. Not sure now.
  4. Not that I can tell. We seem to have avoided any issues at my place. I'm with you though, there were some moments where I thought for sure I was going to be hearing a big pine limb come down. Thankfully not.
  5. Yes MU mentioned how they and LNS experienced this. Talked about how compressional warming can often be maximized right ahead of a cold front.
  6. I hear ya both, although my big issues has always been falling asleep. Terrible at it. Will lay there for hours sometimes before I can go down.
  7. Low of 36. What a World Series that was, just incredible drama.
  8. I’ve seen this done before. Sometimes it’s shots too. Always a winner ha. Wait, you’re really handing out Bells? What neighborhood will you be in? Asking for a friend.
  9. Low of 49. One of the biggest days of the year for the kiddos.
  10. You're looking at him. I'm at ~48" for the year with two full months to go.
  11. My low actually bottomed out at 41 early this morning, a drop of four degrees from the 45 I reported when leaving the house shortly after 6am. Impressive. The sweet sound of rain in the gutters, aaahhhh, night all.
  12. Low of 45. A nice rain event for tonight through tomorrow and then cold and windy for trick or treat night ugh.
  13. 35 when I left the house, may go lower. Melissa is one of the more impressive canes I’ve ever seen upon approach to Jamaica.
  14. Noticed that, interesting indeed. I think sometimes when the inversions are quite shallow that I sit juuuuust above them at my new location. I say “new” even though we’ve been here going on three years ha, but our last place sat about 100’ lower and I got noticeably colder lows over there.
  15. Low of 37. Had a nice fire last night. Big one between The Pack and Steelers tonight.
  16. Low of 36. Brought the big palm tree into the house for the season yesterday, guy's been with us for a few years now, doing well. The seasons, they are a changin'.
  17. Low of 46. National high of 97 near Hidalgo, TX and low of 18 near Harrison, NE (not sure I've ever seen Nebraska take home the title).
  18. Even with that, I think we have a tendency to underestimate just how bad the wind is in other areas. Anyone from the Midwest will tell you how it blows relentlessly. The lack of friction makes even meager pressure gradients gustily perform. My best friend lived in western Ohio for many years and to this day talks all the time about how nonstop and annoying the wind was. But I hear ya, when our winter winds kick up it can be hard to imagine anything worse haha.
