Hihs in the 40's might not be exciting..but its a hell of a lot better than warmth with moths and lightning bugs flying around at nite

Killed 3 mosquitos last night.

Usually we have the lady bug invasion in October. That didn't happen this year. Not sure what that means, but hopefully it's not some kind of bad sign.

Same here. A few years ago it was always around Oct 10, then last year it was Oct 24. This year, nada...

But we have had 2' of snow and numerous days where we got to the 20s or below. Hopefully they are all dead...

But yeah, lots of other bugs.

I had a tick on me a last week having been working in the woodpile. Nasty things.

'05-'06 rarely had the snow stick around more then a few days save for the first 3 weeks of December when we had our only sustained cold pattern that winter....but I still rooted and enjoyed those 6-10" SW flow events.

8" of snow that melts in 4 days is better to me than 41F and no snow at all. Regardless, you are right that we rarely have snow that falls in November that will stick around all winter unless you are counting piles or a stray patch of snow sheltered by hemlocks.

I think the main points people need to take from the warm pattern talk are:

1. We are talking about in the mean...average...a 2-3 week warm regime does not mean there cannot be some colder days in there, its just the long wave pattern doesn't support cold so we do not see sustained cold.

2. A warm regime does not mean we cannot sneak in a snow event if short term things line up correct...esp for the climo favored spots in late November (NNE/interior SNE elevations).

3. Even if we do not see a flake over the next 3 weeks, that still only puts us at Dec 7th...there is a lot of winter left to go after that point. Both 2008 and 2010 saw nary a flake before 12/15 and both winters were quite prolific across most of SNE. I think I had more accumulated ice than snow on Dec 15, 2008 up to that point.

This is the best post in this thread so far.

Of course I'm a little worried heading into December but even senior level management at the ski resort isn't all *that* concerned yet as we usually don't make any money the first few weeks anyway. If this persists and we get closer to the Xmas time and its still warm, then it might be time for a toaster bath... but I can't wait to at least get to that first week of December to see what might be ahead in mid to later December.

The law of averages almost always works out though... the pattern will break eventually and it'll snow, possibly a lot. Something like 06-07 comes to mind when nothing happened until February, then we got a season's worth of snowfall from Valentines Day onward. 250" of snow fell that season in Feb/Mar/Apr after only having 125" in Nov/Dec/Jan... god what I would do for that pattern again the second half of that winter. It was like monster nor'easter drops 2 feet (Valentines Day, St Patty's Day, Tax Day, etc), then we get another 2 feet worth of upslope in the following days, with a few light 6-12" snowfalls sprinkled in every few days. That was amazing.

Hopefully the law of averages comes through as mother nature loves her averages...we'll have to jackpot up here a few times to make up for the October storm ;)

Finally got a chance to explore our wooded lot. 13 trees down ranging from 6 inch to 22 inch diameter from Irene. One hit by lightning, all laying NW from the SE wet downburst. The lot is about 1.5 acres. Had a huge fiirepit from branches from Snowtober. Great day to work, last mowing done, skis tuned, bring it on like Donkey Kong.

This was for Thursday, but the best chance was east of you....like Kevin and Will's area, but this is a low prob. It was just meant to be watched as a small possibility.
