At some point, outside the far interior, ya’ll will be looking at November as a shortening of mud season vs a snow potential month.

Think you meant December.

60 here and the Yellow Jackets are back out in full force trying to get a taste of this delicious East Rock Brewing Oktoberfest..

In Hubbardston? We’re talking just flakes…not accums. It’s definitely usually Oct or early Nov.

Many years but not always.  I really don’t give a shit unless it accumulates anyway.

I always find snow lines interesting… like it was just cold enough 50 feet up the field to stick.

Snow line at 2200’-2300’?  That’s what it looked like driving up to Costco.

That photo is 1,300ft or so.

I noticed the snow line on Mansfield’s east side seemed lower than it was through the Winooski Valley and west slopes.  Robbins Mountain is 2,000ft and saw no traces of snow visible.  Stowe had snow down below the 1500ft base area.

Also went to Costco too… .

Well people that don’t care about their lawn and landscaping it’s not a problem. But for the vast majority that do .. it’s a major issue 

Lolol... And that's coming from a guy who wants damaging winds to take down wires and trees for days and days.

@dendrite

I decided to fight the winds today . I won.. but man was it a battle and hugely triggering. Lots of f bombs.

They go quickly in deez hills. The winds the last 5 or so days certainly helped 

[CoastalWx]

lots of leaves here still but a lot came down last night. Lawn looks great for Mowvember.

Yesterday's winds took a lot of the leaves down. Probably 50% down ( And yes, the lawn looks nice and green here too )

The first hour was picking up all the limbs and sticks that blew down last night . Then blow. Then tractor for stragglers .

Borrow Ginxs phone for that pic?  sheeeesh

[weathafella]

My landscaping guys unexpectedly came and blew everything clean.  Will probably need another round before the final fall cleaning.  Then the gutters after everything is down.

It is insane to go there on a weekend. I’m not sure what I was thinking. I guessed the elevation based on a lack of snow anywhere here 1500’ and up.

Everyone is say how warm it is but it feels close to normal for today’s high of 56.  Currently 49.

[Damage In Tolland]

Peppers in full grow and new blooms on Nov 1. I planted them first weekend of Mayorch .

Yeah it's been pretty normal. October in Boston was 1.6 above average but after the first week we never hit 70 again.

Getting some flurries at home.  First flakes.  Had some graupel this afternoon but these are actual snowflakes.

That’s the plan tomorrow. blow ‘‘em into a few piles, suck ‘‘em up with the cyclone rake, then mow the rest of the lawn with the cyclone rake in tow. 2 2 acre yards should be done in <6 hours if all goes well. maybe find Time for a couple cold beers

We had some fatties in the early afternoon and some flurries tonight. Gotta go up towards the cog base station for any accumulation though

How good is the cyclone rake? Every year I say I’m going to get something to deal with these leaves and I don’t. 

[dendrite]

My parents had one…works fine. 

I just mow short and mulch them in though. Glad we don’t live in suburbia.

I leave a good amount behind. Some of that is by choice—it’s been great for summertime biodiversity in my backyard. I mulch as much as I can but full leaves work too if I put them near my tree line. 

Some of that is because the trees drop at different times and I don’t have the time or will to get back there several times in November. 

It’s beautiful in October, but a pain in November.
