31/26
Faĺling a bit quicker and lower than I expected here.
Clear sky.
-
Looks like I'll finish November with 1.11" rainfall. Drier than many, I believe.
Lowest temp 22, highest 65.
-
Went out again 1 hour later and it was genuine dzl. Needed windshield wipers and everything. Might've started briefly as a few flurries, dunno.
-
Just came in from dog walk. Would swear I had some flurries hitting my skin. There was something in the flashlight beam. Very light, and not dzl mist.

Much of it is hereditary. I went 32 years between my first laminectomy and my fusion. The fusion is a big deal, but it did work.
My heart leapt for joy when I read Leesburg's post. You can see the relief in his writing. Much to thank God for this Thanksgiving.
Leesburg...don't you shovel too much snow just yet. Slow and steady makes it.
BTW, I still wear a back brace to shovel. Cuts down on fatigue if nothing else. Good habit to get into.
ETA: I've haven't seen many success stories with the standard steroid injections. But it's simple enough to try.

Low 22
Beat yesterday's 24 . DP was strangely higher last evening but fell into the teens overnight.

First rays of sunshine all day just hitting us here in PGCo at 3:30 pm .
I'm pretty sure we haven't had a flake of snow here. Maybe a flurry will wander through.

Considering Mr. Homenuk's forecast; (weak el nino), I get an expectation of very snowy NE winter with systems that give us slush and rain. Just get a look at that QBO chart too.
Thanks for posting.

Looking at the years mentioned by LWX in today's AFD for record low temps, I compared annual snowfall amount for those years viz:
1911 - 22.4"
1920 - 7.9
1926 - 8.5
1957 - 43.0
1963 - 51.8
1986 - 35.2
1988 - 8.3
1996 - 15.3for convenience, here are the years as they printed it:
Site Low 11/12 Low 11/13 High 11/13 Low 11/14
DCA 24/1926 22/1911 31/1911 19/1920
BWI 18/1957 22/1911 32/1911 18/1986
IAD 22/1988 21/1963 38/1996 13/1986
(most are low; some are low max)I'm inclined to ignore the 1920 and 1926 because they appear for DCA only.
Common to BWI and IAD are 1986 and 1988. One good, one bad.Inconclusive; (like most winter long range); but overall about half good, half bad. The BWI only years, 1911, 1957, 1986, were all average or well above.

Right behind you. Did a little additional chimney work after ambient temp reached 50, hauled a couple loads of wood, and now she's burning pretty well.

Reading October low records, (insane IMO) has me starting to seek out winter analogs all over again. This month will become one of those historical maps we refer back to, like 1985 or 1989.

Morning fog won't let go here in PGCo. I'm a bit surprised.
-
1.68 in the Davis so far. Real gauge looks less, but we'll see. Was just out, and steady rain continues.
-
0.85 so far.
Been fairly steady all day.
Temp 54

Would be surprised if it was broken. What can happen is that a leaf or small twig gets stuck and stops the tipping bucket mechanism.Seems to happen every month on mine. Poplar seeds are the worst.
Devised a new screen/protector gadget, and it helps. But during leaf season, the Davis rarely agrees perfectly with the normal gauge.

Not sure how much I got but it was a soaker. Some heavy showers trained right over central AA country. Great fall day. I left the house at 5am and headed out crabbing. It was nice picking crabs while the rained poured down outside.
0.41"
Was training almost right over us, maybe a little north, per radar.
Would've reported earlier but forgot how to work the rain gauge. (30 days of dust and pollen included)

At 6:15 we got my first drops of rain since 9/13
Not very measureable. Guess no more than 0.02" But it's a start.
