No complaints from me, either. Now, if we're still doing this two months from now... yeah. But it was never going to snow or be meaningfully cold on October 15th, so might as well be comfy outdoors.

I've come to regret uninstalling earlier this month. Would have really benefited from AC the last several nights.

Don't forget to say "finally feels like fall, eh?" to everyone you see

October Discussion: Bring the Frost-Hold the Snow
Juliancolton replied to 40/70 Benchmark's topic in New England
Had breakfast at the local cafe this morning, everyone was seated outside in short sleeves. That definitely gets no complaints from me on October 15th. Let the torch roll on. -
Today's forecast really laid an egg. No breaks in the stratus layer for even a moment, despite all indications of rapid clearing early on. Weak
-
That's it! You've seen maps like this, the values are bogus imo but the contours have the right shape... to see the same intensity display in northern Iowa you'd have to go to far NNE https://darksitefinder.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/KP-Map.png

Not much of a surprise to be fair, the M-flare and full-halo CME were pretty well documented by all the usual imaging instruments. My camera picked up some faint color within a few degrees of the northern horizon but nothing out of the ordinary. It did look like a great show in the Plains and Midwest, which is favored by higher geomagnetic latitudes and the oblong auroral oval vs. the coasts.
-
Seeing some back-of-the-camera color and even faint pillars down here... probably a nice show ongoing in NNE

Pretty brave hiking Indian Head on a Saturday in October. May God have mercy on your soul.
-
I said the same thing about my pancake batter.
-
Yeah, I always buy one of the almanacs. They're an entertaining light read for $6 or whatever they are... the bogus wx predictions only take up a few pages.

Winter cancel

Ahh, I should have logged on earlier, would have definitely run up. I thought about going to that but ended up doing the walkway street fair instead.
-
It's hard to sustain the necessary bubble of warmth when winds are really whipping, otherwise the cold doesn't faze them. I think I missed my evening cigar a total of three times last winter. Which has been nice for sure, but isn't great for the long term implications of that particular habit

I've been happy with the $130, 48,000 btu upright units from BJ's. Easy to assemble and my first two have survived three winters of near daily use, although I did have to replace one thermocouple last year... quick fix
-
I was a little surprised too to have managed that even with a bit of low-level flow all night... although 38 was, in fact, the low. Love those first mornings in the 30s when the steam billows off lakes and ponds. Also gonna pretend I didn't see bx's post. edit: I lied, 37.4 is the daily minimum
-
Well, already down to 38 with potentially another hour to go. Chilly.
-
Albany P&C takes me to 39 tonight. Should be semi-interesting to watch as conditions look okay but not excellent for radiating. If there's a light breeze in the morning as modeled, that could really thicken up the fog over the river and make for some impressive sunrise views.
-
Yeah, that evolved into quite the soaker. Looks like I'm gonna be in it for a while yet... ~0.6" so far
-
Not much rain here either, just enough to screw with garden cleanup for the day. Some nice thunder to set the mood, though
-
Felt like a summertime mow today. Eyes clogged with dust, grass tall and green, sun beating down.
-
Stormy evening out there... could be the last one until Christmas Eve
-
Approximately 30% of my social media feeds is now photos of Franconia Notch. Autumn officially begins when that proportion reaches 50%, it's coming.
-
46 for a low today. I just noticed that July 2020 was the last month here without a low in the 40s.

Dodging Santas and reindeer while mowing this year
