Mallow Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 12z Euro is cold for day 7-8. Maybe even a few flurries possible, if it were to verify? But that's probably on the extreme cold end of the model spectrum right now. Still looking cold for Saturday-Sunday. Highs potentially not reaching 50F? Lows near freezing?

Eskimo Joe Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Starting to see the tips of trees change, especially on the hill tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itunis Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Starting to see the tips of trees change, especially on the hill tops. Fair amount of color here, still sporadic but definitely noticeable. Is the typical peak in C PA around mid October? I'd assume it would be. Can't wait for the cold snap this weekend...first frost possible for some places? Maybe even Happy Valley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Still looking cold for Saturday-Sunday. Highs potentially not reaching 50F? Lows near freezing? Yeah the EURO looks chilly. Depending on wind/cloud cover, could have some pretty widespread frost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 We're headed to the pacific northwest / British Columbia Wednesday for a week. When I return, I want no rain and cool temps for a while. Get to work on that, boys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have several things frost-sensitive things in my garden I am hoping to coax to harvest, so I am hoping for an extra week or two, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieOber Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 Foliage pictures people? Took this image last night. Weird how the leaves on the lower part of the ridge are really turned, but not as much higher up this year: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Took this image last night. Weird how the leaves on the lower part of the ridge are really turned, but not as much higher up this year: That's actually a pretty common thing for our ridges around here. Most of the tree types that produce the early vivid colors reside lower while the top portion of the ridges can be primarily the heartier oak trees that don't really start turning until we're at or past our peak for the best colors. Then you have that canopy of brown on the tops of the ridges in late October when the lower trees have mainly lost their leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the lack of direct sunlight, compared to the top of the hill/ridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauss06 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Wow is it raining in Harrisburg. it is pouring with a couple cracks, booms and bangs mixed in on occasion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djr5001 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Wow is it raining in Harrisburg. it is pouring with a couple cracks, booms and bangs mixed in on occasion! And unfortunately once again it is mostly west of KMDT or Harrisburg's yearly total would be much higher than what it currently is. Many storms this year have dumped on areas just west and north of the ASOS. This downpour would be nice to add to monthly total to try to break the one month record from June 72.

hckyplayer8 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Saturday looks pretty darn cold for the beginning of Oct. Highs struggling to get into the mid 40's throughout the interior, mountainous regions with I95 barely making it out of the 50's. Sat night the lower 40's make it into I95 with interior 30's.
