GSO set a new record today of 73*, knocking out the old record in 2012

Released today but this is getting uglier by the day.

26* for a low here rebounded to a high of 60*.

Currently 44*.  Probably our last night of chilly temps as we start to warm up some

The lack of rainfall events and the sporadic nature of showers and thunderstorms when they occurred led to widely variable rainfall totals for the month. As shown in Table 2, even though Raleigh was very wet with 7.53 inches for the month (most of that falling from the October 9 event), monthly totals were 2.80 inches at Greensboro (0.30 inches below normal) and only 1.21 inches at Fayetteville (2.02 inches below normal).

I think we were talking about this month and not October though, hence the confusion.

Kind of strange that Raleigh has had over 7” this month and I’ve has 0.39” and yet we are both labeled D0.

Which Raleigh has gotten over 7" this month?

Doesn’t look to be getting better in long range

I just do one last regular mow with a mulching attachment and presto they are gone. So simple.

.16” here.  No wonder the leaves are so nice and crunchy when I walk around my yard..

Makes it easier if you have to blow the leaves or vacuum them up since they are not intact fully anymore like you said. 

Thought about making a fire tonite but bagged it.  Down to 39* already.  Looking forward to Tues morning with lows in the mid 20s

We were a little bit of a warm outlier for the area with a low of 31.5 but it was our first freeze of the year 

Nothing like that first freeze to take care of the things outside.  Yeah Im little further out and in a "valley" terrain so it can drop here compared to RDU which is 2 miles away

Down to 29* here.  Thankfully this should wipe out any allergies from here till next spring

Got the shut out here overnight, not even a Trace fell here. 

Def agree that the fall color is really nice this year here. Its nice driving around and seeing it

Dropped down to 33* only here. didnt see much frost not that I was looking for it. We finished up with ,.07" yesterday.  Tomorrow and sunday looks to be a great day to sit back and watch college football and nfl sunday. Its going to be raw and damp and chilly weekend

I kind of like these raw fall days....................................................................................................when Im home and relaxing in my chair, comfy. 

High for the day 47

Low for the day 44 this morning

.07" in the bucket so far and probably no more rain today here. 

6.61" for the month of October

Picked up .83" since midnight.  for the storm sitting at 1.03"

MTD 6.61"

Pretty much a meh event.  .12" since 530pm when it started or so. Very patchy on radar

I was wrong about the evening storms, they did hold together well through the Triangle. It was rocking and rolling here for a minute. Finished to 1.32” for the day

It was just a heavy rainfall and some lightning to your west. Glad you got in on some of the fun too. 

We finished up the day with 1.27"

MTD: 5.56"

Maybe a little more rain Thurs/Fri
