Very good. There you go calling it fake cold after complaining yesterday that people poke fun at you. Don’t hate on areas that produce their own cold while others need Canada to come to the rescue for their cold. It’s all weather.

Serious question, when was the last time you tuned up your station and verified it was calibrated correctly. It wouldn’t change the overall issue but I’m curious.

Mark me up on the big board for the first hard freeze, low of 28 here.

It was 34 here just before midnight so it goes down on the 18th for me.

Good point on snowfall measurements. I wonder if it may change for temps as I see now at least at KMGJ that when you look at the three days history they do now show temp readings to the tenth.

Yes, when rounding numbers one goes down in that case. I track my readings consistently with traditional NWS reporting methods. Perhaps that is changing?

30° (29.6°) for the low here.

The NWS defines a Freeze as 32 or below. In your example the 32.4 gets rounded to 32 and would be considered a Freeze. 30 (29.7) here now so a Hard Freeze isn't likely at this point.

I find it interesting he doesn't acknowledge his hypocrisy.

I see what you did, the nothing to see here narrative.

It’s fairly common for me. Average first freeze here is 10/22 with the hard freeze date of 10/28. The dates I’ve recorded both on the same date are: 11/12/05, 10/14/06, 10/20/08, 10/19/09, 10/13/12, 10/31/14, 10/17/24. The dates I have that there were back to back dates (likely the same night but I’d have to dig further into my records to see the times of the recorded lows) are: 11/1-11/2/10, 10/17-10/18/15, 11/3-11/4/21, 11/1-11/2/23, 10/9-10/10/25.

Had a severe warning over here in Orange, not much wind thankfully but in the words of Forrest Gump some big fat raindrops, .67 on the day.

My parents would call that peak back in the day when we lived in New Hampshire. I always thought their idea of peak was behind mine, like you, greens mixed in is good. Their take was if there was pretty much any any green its not peak. That's one of the things I like about the foliage season though it can be a little different for everyone and yet beautiful regardless. Great photos, as is tradition, and thanks to all who post in here, much appreciated.
