Still not too impressed with the AI models, but I honestly haven't looked at any verification scores.

You might be able to close your eyes, and have better success in drawing up a better and more accurate depiction. Throw that thing in the trash.

The bigger point is that you were below 32…like most all of New England has been already this fall.

I'm seeing that they are outperforming globals in mid range..but can't really be trusted for nuance in the short range (0-3 days) due to smoothing/blurring effect. I wonder if those short term problems are something that can be overcome with time.

Min 34.0°

More frost…still 36°

Gonna need to find a way to frost protect a nonlignified tree this weekend. The tip already got frost burned from 26° despite a trash barrel over it. MOS is hitting 23° at CON Sat and Sun AM.

Yes, I’d have to think they could be overcome, especially if they are self learning.

1,100ft here and frozen solid nightly.

Narrow it down to like 950ft to 1,025ft .

Lasts a long time in the shade.

I'd guess that almost all NNE sites other than some tidewater places have had a frost, and most a freeze.  95% leaf drop around here.

Hell, even way down here in Maryland, 10 miles from the Chesapeake Bay we've had frost. Pretty early for around here. My winter home on Tug Hill seems like it had frost in September lol

At our rad pit microclimate we've had September frosts 25 of 29 years.  The others came in October.  When we lived in Fort Kent we had a frost on July 31, 1978 - wounded our pumpkins and killed the neighbor's beans.  That August we had a hard freeze at 28.

The northern part of “The County” is a very special place.

28° for the low.  Up to 46°
