45.7/40F ( can't find any reporting station lower in New England right now) Light rain shower began 20 minutes ago. Started out with some fairly large drops mixed with some ice pellets. I wasn't going to post it since you guys probably would think I was nuts but I see Mt Washington is reporting IP too. Guess if drops were big enough they could fall through 5000 feet of 40's without totally melting?

Things must have really changed fast this past week since Alex's pic's on the Kanc show great color. Franconia Notch was so green last Friday. Columbus weekend comes very late this year so most of the peak will be gone in the mountains especially if we get a heavy rain event on Monday. Next week looks to have peak in my area of Central NH. GFS has a fropa next weekend with more rain to screw up Columbus weekend. That will take down more leaves. Does anyone know how busy it is going through Franconia Notch on a peak color weekend? Is it stop and go or does it move along. Probably worth a 40 minute ride up

Could be an epic weekend for foliage photography in NNE. Snow above treeline with near peak foliage. If skies are blue everything could come together. 44.7F Overcast wood burning stove keeping house warm

Snow tonight in the high Whites. Near peak foliage this weekend. With blue skies, could be an epic weekend for the leaf peepers.

58.2F with north wind. Definitely a raw feel with overcast skies. It's coming guys.....

More OT news. Bernie Sanders is in the hospital after chest pains yesterday. Had to put 2 stents in artery. He should be ok 60F sprinkles but blue breaks to north. About .15" last night. High was 65.7F at 530am

Loving today's warmup. 55.5F at 145pm. Been in the low clouds all day with 1/4 vis but base is rising and is right at house level. Skies are brightening so temp should jump shortly

Loving today's warmup. Up to 55.5F at 145pm. CAD rules

At least you get 12-18 hours. It's 1245pm and Im up to 53.6F. Let's see if the 70F forecasted high comes to fruition. CAD always wins for me.

Starting October here socked in the low clouds at my house. 51F. Got almost .20" of welcomed rain last night. Further north brought plenty of rain in September while areas a bit further south missed out. Today warm air lurks to the south. Will it make it in here later? First true fall cold air to move in soon to end the growing season for all. Perhaps the first flakes for some too??

It's October 1rst so going to start a new thread for the cold season

Month ends at 1.78". 1.15" fell on the 2nd. Colors are coming along. View from my road this AM

37.7F Plants get to live another few days

59.3F Partly sunny with cirrus patches. High was 67F at midnight and temps fell into the 50's by 5am. Tried all day to get back to 60F but looks like a fail.

Here is a map of C/NNE rainfall over the last 30 days. We had a nice soak on the first couple of days of September. If not for that the departures would be more severe. It's another world up towards PF and Alex.

September comes to an end in very dry Central NH. Finally it looks like some rain chances. Further north there has been more rain. I am 1.78" for the month but over an inch of that occurred around Sept 2nd. Picture of Pemigewasset River in Bristol NH area.

Loaded up the ebikes and headed north on this beautiful day. Foliage is around 10-15% in Central NH. Even in Franconia Notch as you can see it was still mostly green. Color increases rapidly north of there.

62F Light to moderate rain. Really dark afternoon. The lower sun angle really makes a difference.

61.6F Thunderstorm just to my SW. Looks to go over Brian's house shortly.

67.7F Scattered moderate acorn showers Rain total .04" last evening. Just enough to clean the leaves of dust along our dirt road. Caterpillar's everywhere and a huge year for acorns.

74.9F cloudy. Looks like my high will be 76.8F. Glad I don't live in SNE. Leaves really changing quickly now.

Very warm night for me. Still 70F at 3am. Finally around 7am I bottomed out at 66.7F. Overcast this morning. 1/2" of rain for me, please?

90L just moved off the African coast and is getting it's act together very quickly. Tightening spin at the circulation center. Can't see any reason it will not be Lorenzo very soon. At this very early stage models have it recurving in the Mid Atlantic.

18Z GFS has a solution a bit like the 12Z Euro. System comes north and then gets stuck before being pushed back west or southwest

74/62 Noon. If 12Z GFS Central NH gets only a few tenths of rain with the next front. I am 1.55" for the month and 1.15" of that fell on the 2nd. It is getting dry. As far as foliage goes everything was green a few days ago but colors are now becoming noticeable.
