One to the north now. https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md1871.html

75% of my leaves are now down.

FWIW, each run if the HRRR becomes less impressive with the line around here.

Yeah, the amount of bugs during the daytime is still ridiculous, not as bad at night around here for some reason. Foliage IMBY is shot, about 50% down, if not more, and very lackluster in color but that’s not unheard of here, it must be the extra humidity from the river/wetlands? I don’t know but I have more meh years here IMBY than not. I don’t remember the last stellar year, maybe 2017? I’d have to try to find photos. The good news for me though is once I get out of this little hollow the foliage can improve but the park isn’t look too great this far. All the rain since 9/1 has to be a factor here I’m guessing. I am sick of the humidity though but that tends to go hand in hand with warmer falls.

I locked in my oil price months ago. Sitting outside now in shorts and a t-shirt, I’m not complaining Ragweed is low around here.

Not gonna lie, I had to Google that LOL

I left my bedroom unit in but didn't use it but maybe should have, probably use it tonight I'm thinking with these dews

Yeah, 63/41 is the normal split for KPMG. I'll actually have to close most of my upstairs windows on Sunday, so weird to have them all just wide open for this long.

I'm more than willing to share...

4.72" here since Ida

Might actually need a jacket going into work Monday morning.

And if they like to smoke weed...forget about it.

They’ve had lake effect snow showers all day too

Nothing says Columbus Day like getting tore up by skeeters while trying to keep the yellow jackets out of your beverage as you watch the mostly brown maple leaves drop…at least they are dropping pretty much on schedule for these parts.

I still wonder how many of those folks pick the very pretty red leaves…of poison ivy… to bring home.

Keep your chin up Tiger

Minnesota? Illinois? Please advise.

While thicker this morning it also mixed out quicker, thankfully.

Agreed, I hope all is well

Densest fog of the week IMBY, visibility well under 1/4 mile in spots.
