  1. That October 4th snowstorm…. I was only a few years old but have a couple photos of my sister and I in the Albany suburbs playing in the snow in the road while almost every tree branch is on the ground.
  2. Greta has been on a heater, pun intended. High of 70F today. Now 48F. Cools off fast though.
  3. Foliage has been progressing fast towards peak in Smugglers Notch and on Mansfield. The mid-slope hardwoods are a mix of green and reds. The first wave of trees are peaking between 1,500-3,000ft. The second wave will be when those green trees decide to flash.
  4. So, the usual new climate normal. Modification and AN in the means despite transient troughs. Hard to argue/bet against that. But one can hope.
  5. Yeah that trough middle of next week looks fairly legit. GFS is coldest at 850mb temps… but GGEM and ECMWF also get slightly negative 850s and rotate them around for a few days late next week.
  6. Only 67F today up here… starting to cool off. Down to just like a +8 type day .
  7. CON’s average low is at 43F right now, BML at 37F over in NH. There is no doubt the growing season has been increasing in the past decade or two. Growing season is very much in progress at all elevations under the tree-line.
  8. We should be getting into the 30s at night with some regularity at this point. Average low is 40 currently. The type of thing where a 55F min is cancelled out by a 25F min. And that’s the average low of the current record set, which is already warm.
  9. September started -1.7 through first 12 days of the month at MVL. September ended at +4.1 . Thats like an all-time torch in the second half of the month. 7 straight days +10< in there too. Yesterday +12, today probably similar to start October.
  10. This has been one of the best stretches of weather I can remember. Like 6 weeks of perfect outdoor weather. 75/55
  11. If you want to just watch some damage for a bit... I know what rain totals of like 4-8" do in mountainous/hilly terrain... but not 12-20". There's no way to avoid a record disaster if a foot and a half of rain falls into topography like that.
  12. If there isn’t, Greta rides shotgun on your sled all winter.
  13. Partly sunny and upper-60s to mid-70s region-wide for highs in the zones..
  14. Imagine being under a 0.5 degree base level velocity scan of 170mph? With thunder and lightning, along with torrential rain?
  15. You guys had a half inch more than up this way. Some breaks of sun now.
  16. Can tell vegetation isn’t soaking up much water… the waterways came up fast. Approaching 1.75” for 2-day total, including 1.15” today.
  17. Ha, I always wonder what folks would do if they saw legit 50-60mph gusts in like wooded New England. I love the “gusts to 45 or maybe 50!” and like all obs are like 28mph.
  18. I mean it is close to a religious experience to some when you get that perfect vista of color. It can be like holy shit levels of color.
  19. Oh you should come up here and see what happens. It’s like the second coming of Jesus himself is about to drop out of every red tree.
