Yup, as I said earlier, I will finally get a new outdoor thermometer at my new apartment here next month, but I know when there's thermal inversion, as has been the case of late, we at the elevation of the river are always a few degrees colder than the local NWS station, KEEN. The past few mornings have been around 25F in Keene, about 200 feet ASL. We are at about 300 feet ASL, so been probably more like 22F.

Suffice to say, it has been chilly!

 

 

 

If you’re 100ft higher you’d be a hair warmer in theory. But it really comes down to whether or not your location is in the lowest spot locally so the cold can drain and pool. If you have a Christmas tree farm it shaves another 5°F off.

Crap day here. Socked in the clouds, windy, and some drizzle off and on. No sun whatsoever.

Wow Bob, that blows. Perfect Fall day out west over here. 54 for the high, and mostly sunny was the order.

Yup yet another benefit of growing fir trees... haha

Already down to 29

I've already had the wood stove going 5 times this month including tonight.   Basically 5-8 hour burns to keep the furnace use minimal and the house comfy at night.

I may have misspoken. Keene is about 200 feet higher than I am. It is a few degrees colder in the valley here than at my local NWS station, KEEN. No worries, I will have my new outdoor thermometer set up at my new apartment next month. Moving stuff out of here now, not worth it at this time.

As for the Christmas tree farm, that's a good point, ha! I'll be sure to get a reading when the time comes, and report back.

Here, 28/28, but will drop a few degrees by dawn (4am NWS local station). It's almost 5am now. We have had about the same temp every day for the past four or so mornings. 

Over one inch of rain coming! Ready for some weather ovah heah. 

[Modfan2]

A Balmy 47F this AM in E CT compared to recent 28-33F  mornings.

[HoarfrostHubb]

yeah. A warmer 42F today.  First morning above freezing in a few days here.

All this talk of freezing; not sure what that is. Roses still budding here…Grass hasn’t been greener.

The teleconnections shift to warm phases beginning next week and it looks to have duration. Let’s take it through thanksgiving.

Well, the Vatican  can be a mild spot this time of year.

[CoastalWx]

Some models really soak certain areas tomorrow night while others Stein some areas too. I do think some areas may get 2 inches or a little bit more and localized spot otherwise probably half inch an inch and a half type deal.

[CoastalWx]

Windy morning here with a few spits of drizzle. I would say gusts 25 Ish or so.

You're one strange dude. We've had several mornings now below freezing. And I'm not in an area where you consider me to be remote or up in Northern Vermont. I'm about 12 miles west of Hartford, Connecticut. 

[CoastalWx]

I do agree with turn milder after the 9th or so.

Went below freezing by like 9:30pm last night but held in the upper 20s all night.
