The weekend rain was lighter than forecast thankfully. There was s light delay in the gauge dropping until yesterday.

GFS has me going below freezing Wednesday morning with the Euro saying its Thursday morning. The IMBY average first freezing date is 10/21.

Officially, I don't know but I lean towards no. That said, I've experienced similar situations in the past that left me scratching my head. The impatiens are a good telltale.

Its pretty certain now that my low here for the month will be 38, which makes it the first October in my time here going back to 2005 that I did not reach freezing. Here are the other Octobers that I only had a low in the 30s, you'll see just how much this 38 stands out in comparison: 2005: 30 2007: 30 2010: 32 2017: 31 2018: 30 2019: 31

Only got to 39 here this morning but there was more noticeable building roof frost on the way into Goshen, still not enough to log it as the first frost.

The Wallkill River gauge in Middletown peaked just a hair higher than it did with Ida, will be interesting how high the river goes this weekend.

38 for the low which ties the lowest for the month. Was fun driving in and out of the fog depending on my elevation near home, saw some light frost on house roof tops closer to Goshen, nothing near me.

Then Christmas evening I picked up .2" of mood snow...it could've been a nice white Christmas...such a Grinch storm that was on Christmas Eve.

4.49" total including the .31" from Monday morning in the Stratus, 4.29" in the Davis over the same time period, had a small leaf and a maple seed stuck in there.

The roads coming in were sloppy in various spots due to the leaves, standing water, and water running across the road.

2.55", which includes the .32" from Sunday night into yesterday morning.

CHP-Truckee posted a photo within the past hour, 25” at Soda Springs since 10pm last night.

You can see on the Truckee webcam that its snowing pretty good downtown which is around 5800' so the higher elevations must be getting pounded.

As promised, here are some more Boring Stats from Irish Rob, I believe its self explanatory but let me know if you have any questions:

And it’s packed. Thought about going but the Octoberfest the same company had last month was a scam. I decided to just drink Spaten on my deck this afternoon and have no line to my beer fridge. You are welcome to stop by and take advantage of the heat my impulse buy from a couple of weeks ago provides…

Oh I have a small video but can’t share, here’s a screen shot of the two of them

Good morning! My eldest son is currently attending Notre Dame for his MBA. His girlfriend was there this weekend and my youngest son and his fiancé flew into South Bend for the game last night, the four of them had a great time. They wound up on the Jumbotron last night at one point and my youngest was part of the mass of men who held my eldest up in the air so he could do push-ups after one of ND’s touchdowns, a tradition at many college stadiums. My eldest is 6’2”, maybe 6’3”, and over 250…I wonder how my youngest os feeling this morning for more than one reason…

In other news, finally hit the 30s for the first time of this very warm season, 38 for the low. I’ll post some stats from my records this week, a very exciting post for you all to look forward to…

Top photo is this date in 2015 and the bottom photo is this morning. You can see how many leaves have dropped and the ones remaining are still mostly green. BLAH!

What’s odd here is many leaves dropped early, I’m mostly done in my yard. It’s very odd, photos later this morning.

Legoland has Davis online and is 7 miles due south of me approx 100' higher in elevation, their station is at approx 480'. Yesterday my low was 48 and the low there was 58. This morning I got down to 46 while Legoland had a low of 48. Interesting stuff for weather nerds. Carry on.

Same here, got down to 40 in the middle of the night and then started climbing.

I used to work in that plaza many years ago, after I saw the video posted here I went I Central Hudson’s Outage Map and there were only 2 small outages around Vails Gate, nothing out of the ordinary.
