43 this morning. 78 was the high yesterday.

Cherish it I will, too bad the days are too short.

39 was the low this morning.

Their probably exempt.

I'm sure that delivery will be undocumented, and delivered under the cover of darkness as a c.o.d.

I'll see later if the Petunias survived.

Dropped down to 27.3 here.

27.7 this morning, might drop a little more till sunrise.

33 here, going to be a cold fall night.

I don't wanna win by low temps. I'd like to win by high temps. Of course this is what happens when I live at the bottom of a hollow in the valley. Now if i walk out of my house and go about 200ft. up the hill I bet it's probably 2 to 3 degrees warmer or probably more, then down here at the house.

28.6 this morning.

Our garden is done. didn't plant any fall or late crops. Sometimes wish we would have. The only flowers we have are Petunias they will eventually succumb to the falling temps. We already had several frosts (and the other flowers died) and there still hanging on.

October 2024 is shaping up to be one of the driest on record, particularly over the eastern part of central Pennsylvania in the Middle/Lower Susquehanna Valley. The month-to-date precipitation at Harrisburg is 0.47" which ranks tied for the 5th driest (2000) October on record. The latest forecast favors a very dry end to the month with little to no precipitation in central PA.

52 this morning had .02 rain around 11 pm last night.

42 this morning.

34 this morning.

Some of the tender stuff was killed by the frost days ago. But the petunias are still blooming. They must be a little more hardy. And the grass keeps on growing, I completed another mow yesterday. Are you expecting a water delivery from Voyager soon? You said water bills march on.

From our very good friend DT: Wxrisk.com · Yes it has been a real Autumn for change with several notable cold shots and a lack of sustained Heat. This has been quite different than what we have seen over the past 20 years so it is nice to see. Unfortunately, it has been incredibly dry from the East Coast all the way to the Rockies since August and Drought conditions are rapidly intensifying across the country. D4 - Drought Condition 4-- is building across Southeast Ohio and portions of West Virginia with several areas of D3 conditions developing importance of the Midwest and the Plains. As bad as it is in Virginia, Maryland, Delaware at least some of these areas have received rainfall from recent Southeast US hurricanes. We are in a dry dry pattern which may not change until we reach very late October or the beginning of November
