I’ve long thought if you wanted a poster child for warming, BTV is it. Before the new normals came out, it felt like every month started at +2 as a baseline. The place just doesn’t cool off at night anymore for the most part.

I noticed they go bananas after those couple cool, frosty mornings like a week ago? Forget when that was but it was like 3-4 days of sun, high diurnal swings and frosty valleys. Immediately after that the leaves went nuts up here.

It’s pretty nuts in person… just acres over acres of vivid color. Coming along nicely at home, too.

70/59… feels warm out there. Saw some sun this morning but now clouded over again. Foliage on fire.

The foliage is firing as we head into October.

You running for President of the DIT Fan Club?

The red and green mix this year is wild.

My retinas hurt yesterday… the clouds just had the place glowing neon. The reds were hard for the camera to deal with they were so blown out.

With the real camera yesterday…

The reds this year are insane.

High of 56F, with mist… but foliage around the house is really starting to come along.

Playing devils advocate, wouldn’t the current environment of hyping up weather events lead to increased “hits” in forecasting high-end wx events? It is incredibly hard for an event to “sneak up” on society these days.

Damn. 0.12” here lol.

First rain showers of the storm. Ground not wet under the trees… we might get there though.
