Brian5671 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Still not much in the way of nice foliage out my way. Mostly browning and then dropping. A lot dropped last week the few days it was on the windy side. I wished the foliage season lasted longer. I go from peak to bare trees in like 10 days. Not that great here either-a lot of brown and yellow and quick drops of those that have changed. Not much red either-too dry for too long this year IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Up to 79 in Bed Stuy. The Forkast scores another one. Definitely a score today. Friday I can't award that one since most were under 80 by several degrees at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I was playing around with my camera when this Monarch showed up. He stayed around for over an hour going from flower to flower.

JerseyWx Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Really beautiful Monarch. Thanks Don. As you know with your pictures sometimes it takes awhile to get the right one. Especially with this guy, he liked to move around a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyWx Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 You have a lot of elevation on me. I live in a valley. Even here the colors are just alright, definitely no where near peak just yet. The reds are just meh, they're mostly maroon colored If anything. The predominant colors are yellows, and every once in awhile some really nice oranges. I'm guessing peak won't be for another couple weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had about 5" of rain since the last few days of September, which is probably aiding in allowing colors to be more vibrant around here.

Since the last week of September I've had about 4 inches of rain. I agree though, that could be part of the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't think there would be much difference in climate/elevation/latitude from both locales We live about 8 miles from eachother maybe, different counties actually. Not sure of his exact elevation, but I'm thinking I am a little bit higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 If NYC can fall below 40 degrees before 10/20, then it would only be the third time since 2005. First readings below 40 in NYC since 2005: 11/3/14 11/3/13 10/13/12 10/27/11 10/25/10 10/19/09 10/28/08 10/29/07 10/27/06 10/26/05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how the Euro can spot the ridge over the West Coast week 4, but it takes longer for it to see the Eastern trough. freebies provided by Fox 12. http://www.kptv.com/link/492613/fox-12-weather-blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at the EP trough /PN ridge position on the Euro , when I see the NEG in the GOA and the ridge extend to the N like that I take the washed out downstream trough look and just go with a deeper reflection on the EC. The Euro will tend to wash the trough out with that EPO/PNA look in the L/R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
