Low 30 and breezy. Some of the tarps we put over the (still producing somehow) tomato plants blew around. They may not have survived.  We'll see. 

Another 0.05 overnight;

Plus this; Almost the whole Southeast, including North Central FLA, under freeze warning on November 10. I'd call this about a month (or more) ahead of normal.

0.22" , still dzl at obs

31 here for my first freeze.

Slightly above average snow and slightly below average temperatures is bold for this era.

I see that text, but I would call that snowfall map average to a bit below average.  

Looks like a good report though.( I didn't read the whole thing, I confess)

.02" predawn. (Maybe closer to 0.01 due to that Poplar seed stuck in there.)

October total 2.53". 

37.10" for 2025 so far. 

Lowest temp 35. Highest 79

About 1.25" overnight.

Got my hands on my Great Grandfathers old film camera from 1979. Here's a picture from the top of Shenandoah! 

 

Thanks for making some of us feel extra old. (Are you sure he was your GREAT Grandfather?)

Beautiful shot which probably looked the same in 1979. Very cool.

BTW, had a major (MECS) snowfall that year.

Last three days highs, 60, 56 and 57 yesterday. Next 7 days the forecast highs are between 49 and 56 and lows 36-40 with at least a chance of rain 5 of those 7, yep fall is here. Probably fire up the woodstove Monday or Tuesday for the first time. 

Burned first fire Friday evening. Was so pleasant, did it again yesterday. The trees still have most of their leaves, and our house is not getting the significant solar gain we get in winter. Makes a noticeable difference in comfort on sunny days, (especially at our age).

Frost on many neighborhood roofs again this morning, but still no freeze this season.

Lately I've been looking at HDD data for overall sensible cold. By this method January 2025 was 4th coldest January of this century.

However, not the case with full year, June-July. Here's our coldest years:

These number look about right to me, and 2002-2003 is 4th coldest all time for Balto, (since 1872)

Made 36 here. Yup, coldest so far.

ETA: minor frost on the usual rooftops, up the hill. Car thermo fell to 35 on the way in. Rather surprising.

.05" overnight
