    Winters over
  2. IrishRob17
    *Disclaimer: Records only go back to 2005 here: Last year was the only season in which I measured an inch or more of snow in November and went on to have a below average snowfall season, and that was only by a couple of inches.

    I love this microclimate/weather nerd stuff. I often see changes going from my 385’ up and over the 520’ hill to get to the main road. When the car windows instantly fog up as I go up the hill always gets ones attention.

    I’m hoping the colder temps will slow mine down but at least the leaves are done. We shall see.

    27 was my low this morning, final fall yard clean up done, just need to put up my snow stakes

    I’m hoping we get something and then go on to pick up another 100” over the season to put even more doubt into the argument the early snow is always a bad sign for winter. That said, I do not want a repeat of last winter either.
  7. IrishRob17
    No but I wonder if it’s related to the missing NOWdata.

    28 here. I need to recalculate some numbers on my spreadsheet as I had the first hard freeze column using temps of 27 or lower. I thought it had to be below 28 but I see it is 28 or below so my hard freeze date will be a little bit earlier. More to follow next week for anyone who cares... <crickets>

    First hard freeze of the season here.

    The .47” on the day gets my monthly total to 6.35”, putting it into second place.

    Hoping the winds tomorrow blow the last of the leaves out of my yard. In regards to towns moving Halloween, which IMO is ridiculous unless is some sort of town sponsored Halloween event, what happens if some kid decides to go trick-or-treating anyway? How do you even enforce that? Why would you want to?
  13. IrishRob17
    I assume your monthly total is low because you had those issues earlier with your rain gauge? This October here is the third wettest since I moved here in 2005, and could very well be the second wettest depending on what happens today and when the line gets here tonight, it'll be close. I was right around 6" when I left this morning and Oct 2010 had 6.30" with the wettest Oct here being 2005 when I recorded 17.06"

    FWIW those same seasons IMBY: 08-09: 37.5" 11-12: 23.5" 12-13: 54.6" 18-19: 41"
  15. IrishRob17
    Agreed but weenies are gonna ween
  16. IrishRob17
    Average Hard Freeze date here is 11/2...bet the over this year...
  17. IrishRob17
    .97 in the Davis here.
  18. IrishRob17
    Isn’t that always the case? Anyway, do you know when the Nowdata will be available again?
  19. IrishRob17
    Agree, but the abundance of relationship advice here is pretty stellar
  20. IrishRob17
    Both last year and this year my first freeze was 10/19 with the average date of 10/25 IMBY. Still waiting on the first hard freeze here but that average date is sometime in the first week of November all based on my records here going back to 2005.
  21. IrishRob17
    Yes, thankfully we were not denied like in the past couple of years. It is unfortunate though that some trees did stress from he dry September. Looking back at my rainfall totals in 2015, the last fully epic foliage year IMBY, and it had a wet June, dry July, slightly below normal August and a wet September. Is that the key? Who the hell knows, there are some many variables that go into foliage color, timing, and duration.
  22. IrishRob17
    Yeah, I meant to post about this on Wednesday morning but it’s budget season which is always “entertaining” in my world, and rather busy this year. Anyway back to Wednesday morning, a picture perfect October morning it was in my neck of the woods. There was patchy ground fog with deep blue skies and sunshine above, this combined with the trees that did put on a show this year was indeed epic.

    Sharing the same brain here, I was trying to upload the GIF of when they flip the nuclear switch but I didn’t have any luck. I can never get those to load for some reason.
  24. IrishRob17
    Holy shit, and with incandescent bulbs?!
  25. IrishRob17
    Doesn’t the bark tell the difference between the two?
