Not too much.

Cannot believe the amount of leaves left on the trees around here. Hopefully a ton come down in the strong wind tomorrow. I’ll be doing leaves into the New Year at this point

Meh. Oaks are still loaded here too. Nothing unusual.

we need the season defining big cyclone and wind event...

we had an autumn like this in 1987 I recall... almost 0 wind thru all of October, then... we had a wind event near Halloween and I remember as the cold front came in there were leaves in the column from cloud base to earth.  crazy

90% leaves left are oaks as usual

Impressive.  
 

But Were either of those real? I mean it wasn’t really a warm airmass, or a cold one either?  Right? 
 

Maybe you just imagined it all?
