  1. Massive leaf drop today from the beeches that are all over my cul-de-sac. I picked up yesterday and this morning, and right now it looks like I didn’t touch a square foot of my property.
  2. I'd prefer 78-79 of the two.
  3. ^ I've mentioned it before, but having the lowest heights in that 50/50 region with a -NAO and the EPO/PNA combo would do nothing but help us with early-winter climo.
  4. True on both counts. I mean...I AM a regular on a weather message board after all.
  5. If we go cold to end the month, then we likely have through the New Year to maximize our potential. If we figure that patterns shift every 45 days or so, then we could realistically expect to go mild for most of January and into February, with a shot at something near the end of the winter. It would suck to lose prime climo, but there's no use worrying about it. If...IF...we can somehow cash in early in the season then getting anything of note the rest of the winter would be relative gravy.
  6. That was exactly what I was thinking. On both counts.
  7. I agree about timing, but how can we make ANY claims about how November will end up when we're two days into the month?
  8. We're having a big get together for the US-England World Cup match on Black Friday, so putting up the lights the day before Thanksgiving might not be a terrible idea!
  9. Today, Holiday Traditions replaced 40s Junction on Sirius/XM Channel 71. We like listening to 40s Junction during dinner sometimes, but we gotta hold off on the Christmas stuff for at least a few more weeks. We could just go with Siriusly Sinatra instead...
  10. There's a 50/50 in some of those extended looks, which would go a long way to helping us get just cold enough at that time of the season. We'd just need to time it right, which we all know we do quite well.
  11. Of course it's statistically less likely to happen on any year, but it's even more annoying today because 1) it's happening this year and 2) it's sandwiched between two dry spells. I just hope we get showers early on and then it dries out for a few hours for the kids to get out and about without umbrellas!
  12. I'm a bit annoyed that we're getting some rain on Halloween when it's been dry recently and will dry out again starting tomorrow.
  13. What’s the use of this thread if not to go full weenie?
  14. Good point about not having much rain since we started to peak. It’s been a wonderful fall/peeping season so far!
  15. I'll take the 48-hour SWFE with precip falling into 20 degree air.
  16. There has to be at least one nondescript, three-story, maroon-ish data center building out there.
  17. Fair enough. My garlic always replaces tomatoes, but if I get it in now or in 2-3 weeks, it won't really matter come spring. Obs: It's chilly this morning.
  18. Good thing it's only a 360-hr prog for early November. As long as our source region gets cold, give me a massive torch here throughout November. Would probably be near-perfect weather.
  19. You've been dying for your vegetation to get killed off. Sorry it hasn't happened yet. My tomatoes are still going.
  20. That's fair, but I'm always curious about the MJO since it seems that it really helps to drive a lot of what happens downstream. I've always been honest about my relative lack of weather knowledge compared to many folks on here, so no one should ever take my non-obs, weather-related posts too terribly seriously.
  21. Same happened here about an hour ago. Now it's about to drizzle.
  22. I have no idea what would be required for that 500mb look to come to fruition, but goddamn is that tasty. In the end, only one of those winters was decent, but whatever. I just figure that no two seasons will work out exactly the same, though I'm sure some of our resident savants will remember how lucky or unlucky we were in those three years.
  23. I don't know why anyone would get worked up over a 10+day general outlook and if it flips.
