ChescoWx Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 This morning's low here in NW Chester County was 30.2 this is the earliest sub freezing low since the same date in 2006. Here in Chester County our earliest sub freezing low from 1894 to current was way back on September 20, 1956 with the latest being November 12, 2005. Here are the the first sub 32 days from 1999 to present 10/8/99 - 32.2 10/30/00 - 29.1 10/09/01 - 28.2 10/29/02 - 31.8 10/23/03 - 32.2 11/09/04 - 27.5 11/12/05 - 32.1 10/13/06 - 31.9 11/08/07 - 28.7 10/20/08 - 31.2 11/06/09 - 29.8 11/02/10 - 27.8 10/29/11 - 31.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a few more NJ counties we thought about ending the growing season, however at least half of the county has to have temperatures below freezing for at least 3 hours. Some of Monmouth County was just about there, but we thought overall not enough to warrant ending the growing season just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per my davis I was sub freezing from 5am-8am, so just meeting the requirement for here. For the next sub freezing night, will a warning be issued for all of Monmouth or just eastern Monmouth?

wederwarrior Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Might be a chance to see the Aurora tonight? Looks like its reaching pretty far south Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotherm Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Might be a chance to see the Aurora tonight? Looks like its reaching pretty far south Pretty intense geomagnetic storm ongoing, but with Kp index around a 5, I wouldn't expect to see them south of NY/northern New England.

Eskimo Joe Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 32.0F exactly as a low here, some light frost. I doused my peppers and eggplants in water last night, see if that worked. So how did the garden fare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman56 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 My garden is history after the 29.7 Saturday morning. Stripped the peppers of anything usable beforehand. Tomatoes went in August from blight -- again. Covered my banana tree with a tarp until I decide on something a little more permanent - i.e. some sort of heated enclosure. This is the 3rd year for the tree, but I've been unable to keep it alive above ground through the winter. Now with the warmer temperatures, the stink bugs can renew their assault.

eastonwx Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 .43" here in the 4" gauge. My Vue didn't register anything today. I took out the tipping bucket assembly, didn't really find anything, though. I'm a bit upset about that, since I just put it up in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Vue gauge is different from the Pro2 one, so I probably can't help you. I'm guessing its not something obvious like being clogged with leaves.

I reattached it and poured a small amount of water in, and it seemed to work OK. Something just prevented the bucket from tipping. Now my measurements are all messed up!

Voyager Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Last night's sunset. I had to take it on the fly as the one time I wanted to get a red light...I didn't. This was on PA100 near the Niagara Bottling Plant in Fogelsville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also hearing reports of people feeling it in Boston. 3.9 in SE Canada too. $20 says MA/NE gets a mini over the next 7 -> 10 days.
