October Obs & Discussions

NWS lowered totals below a inch for most, hoping it continues to 0 and misses completely.

I hate when we get early season Strat PV disruptions.  It always seems to snap back after during climatological winter and fights us.  We shall see.  

I usually don’t disagree, but I have a reason to think that this one might be different. Although, I think the GFS is rushing it a bit.

Mornin Ray Ray. I hear what your saying and likely have an idea as to why you are saying it, but let’s just say I’m “gun shy”. Lol.

Hey Jet. I think with some of the heavy rains over the last few weekends, this weekend’s rain seems to be kind of run of the mill. Here is the latest from Upton. Totals have dropped from when I posted yesterday. Some localized flooding I guess is possible if this comes down in a short time, but it’s likely to be more off and on from about late morning early afternoon Saturday through mid day to early pm Sunday

Thanks roc…guess joey b had a rare whiff. Still love him tho. Lets see how it plays out. Looking forward to an awesome winter!

Already they are talking about another coastal rain storm for next weekend.....that would make 8 weekends in a row that we've seen rain....would be insane if this was the winter time....

yup, is it really 8? I think its more like 4 or 5 in a row. I could be wrong. Looks like a wrap for my for getting out to anymore town wide sales (next weekend Euro has a bit cvoastal comes in 2 waves sat-Mon, last weekend I got lucky with Sunday being nice, does not sound like tomorrow is going to be decent until late in the day. Yes if this does not continue in DJF I am gonna lose my you know what lol.

I believe this is the 6th weekend with rain. So 7 and 8 are on the way!

49* last night...had to put on the heat..sunny breezy, and currently 51*

Out at Penn State Football game yesterday and miserable wx, 48* and rainy mose4ate at times. I've never seen mud as I did yesterday in all the tailgate lots, ankle deep plus in some area. At 6PM winds started kicking in and 46* felt colder.
NEVER AGAIN!!!
Tranquil week to another coastal next weekend.

Euro is even more impressive, 2-4 inches rain yayyyy... NOT, today was a great day though.

I notice we have not yet had a frost. It seems maybe the last week of the month we could get one. I see this as a few weeks later than usual.

The weather has been coolor, wetter. What will winter bring?

44 degree right now and today it was a bit cool with the wind. Doc, are you running the pool for the first frost and the one for the date of the first CP post?

First snow flurries of the year in Stillwater around 3:30!
WELCOME WINTER! 56 degrees

Nice. It is 60 here so no snow. About 3 pm a rain storm came through. Intense for about 8 minutes, then ended. It caught me by surprise. I can to get off the tractor and come indoors.

60 and sunny in New Hope...

The flurries lasted about 10 minutes and came at the end of a downpour, just got another downpour now temp dropped to 53degreez.

The sky was so strange the pictures did not fully capture it. Looked like a funnel might come out of it

Yeah um somehow I don't buy that....Nor do I see a single flake.

Not too bad, certainly not much comparatively to what we have seen, and this is over a span of almost 3 days, and 12z Euro has almost nothing, I would be perfectly happy with a rain free weekend.

Funny thing is I was driving and pulling into my Lake community with my wife and it just got done pouring rain and my wife said “ Look it’s Snowing “ ! I Looked and snow flakes were coming down . I showed my wife your snide comment and the the other one from the therapist ( scary) and she was very surprised to say the Least. Anyhow wishing everyone a record snowfall winter!  “The snowflake can survive if the cooling due to evaporation outweighs or balances the warming due to conduction from the surrounding, warmer air.”
Looked this up for you ,found it interesting ! The picture I posted was not of Snowflakes but of the sky all day here at 1190 feet , I’m right off the Appalachian Trail !
