  1. How anyone can say it hasn’t been an orderly step down and indeed increasingly autumnal is beyond me. Everything seems on schedule at least imby.
  2. You seeing new activity? I went out about an hour ago and could make out the faintest streaks but there's no way I could get a usable pic.
  3. That’s a quick recovery from last night’s ERC and possible mild interaction with the tip of the Yucatan. Looks quite robust and ramping again.
  4. So true! My even older neighbor turned his on weeks ago. My threshold is mid 60s in the downstairs areas mid day. So I flipped it on. It will kick on occasionally overnight after warming us to 68-my preferred temperature in the cold season.
  5. Turned on the heat. That means summer is over.
  6. Grass isn’t green at my house 3 miles from Simmons.
  7. We’re all speak for BIrving but I’m almost sure he meant the dec-feb aggregate.
  8. So here’s the question. When I hear first frost I’m thinking frost otg or needing to be scraped off the car. 2M temps are often above freezing since ground temperatures can be colder. So what do you mean by first frost? First freeze for BOS averaged 11/7 in the dataset 1961-90. I’m not sure it’s substantially different now actually.
  9. Seeing Apalachacola National Forest conjures an image from Deliverance…
  10. Bookbinder one of the authors of the latest NHC disco. Is that Evan Bookbinder who was at NWS FO in MO somewhere and a poster here back in the day and on irc way back 25 years ago?
  11. Not exactly zzz but for us….zzzzzz
  12. Was up in Wonalancet yesterday for a nice hike along a stream with guys I’ve been hiking with for 50 years. Actually was decently warm. I was staying in Wakefield and by the time we got there for dinner it was lightly raining. I drove home last night snd rain increased once south of the Merrimack. Pouring when I got home. It’s trying to clear today but the garden got a nice long drink yesterday.
  13. We might as well begin with a smattering of snow in Siberia. Another winter looms.
  14. I have not started my annual and we begin thread. Maybe tonight or tomorrow.
  15. I love way above normal late September into October with a flip around Halloween. That type of pattern often bodes well for winter.
  16. I used to do that but I now have been setting it at 79 on the pike. Have been doing that for 5 years with no issues. It sounds like troopers validate that strategy.
  17. It may be too early but a wooly bear caterpillar seen by my wife had an extremely narrow orange band indicative of a severe winter. Not a prediction-just a folklore observation.
  18. Take the blizzard out and you still have a record breaker 2 weeks earlier. But I get the point.
  19. Regarding Hazel which was mentioned a page back, that had the most impressive winds of any that I’ve personally experienced. Not much rain but my vivid memory of the tops of railroad utility poles cartwheeling down my street a mile from the tracks has been indelibly etched into my consciousness for the past 70 years despite Hazel being over land after landfalling over the SC/NC border and then rocketing NNW. I also have a less vivid memory of snow falling while we were trick or treating 2 weeks later.
