IrishRob17 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Absolutly. They can handle a freeze that's why they are known as a fall plant. I have seen them still going well in to December some years. Another funny observation today is people dressed winter coats and scarfs. I'm wearing shorts T-shirt flip flops in the city right now and perfect Yep, my mums suffered temps in the low 20's but are still going strong. And totally agree on what people are wearing out there...its October out there, you better bundle up...idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masomenos Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I feel like once we have a cold spell, the people never want to go back to summer gear even if it gets up to 80°. Never understood that.New Yorkers rather suffer if the alternative is to compromise fashion. I tend to be one of them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike the past few years the growing season ended much earlier in my area this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Cutter nation next week? It's good to see the Euro take whats left of Patricia from the EPAC right up across the Great Lakes. Hopefully, the El Nino direct tropical feed to the east can bring us some much needed convection. SST's in the source region are off the charts.

dWave Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I feel like once we have a cold spell, the people never want to go back to summer gear even if it gets up to 80°. Never understood that. I agree, but I think its that ppl don't have faith in warm weather that you have in summer. It might be 80 but it can flip on you and be 50 and windy too. That's not possible in July. Plus NYC is the rare case when the majority of ppl dont own cars, so ppl dont want to be stuck at a bus stop or walking several blocks and freezing. Once I got a car I noticed I took more risks in terms of dressing for the weather. I find more people are dressing for the early morning commute or night conditions than for mid day weather when they are probably stuck in an office anyway. I have to admit i did see some people looking absurd with some warm coat in the mid 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People dress for the 45° mornings (around here) and then when it goes up to 77° like Wednesday, they don't bother to change. I had a sweatshirt on with a t shirt under it so at least I could take that off. I guess everyone realizes winter is coming. But, on the flip side of the seasons, I've actually seen people keep winter clothing on after a harsh winter like last year when we start getting Spring like temps.

SnoSki14 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Foliage is definitely behind still. We'll probably peak end of the first week of November. Ugly weather pattern days 7-14 that we do not want to lock in this winter. Nothing but mild, Pacific air for the entire CONUS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian5671 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 The Euro/ GFS/ UKMET agree on us eventually seeing the remnants of Patricia next week. Looks like we are moving into the early stages of the drought eventually getting erased by the El Nino during the cold season.The last time an El Nino broke a drought for us was 02-03 which was a much weaker event. http://mp1.met.psu.edu/~fxg1/ECMWFTROPATL0.5_0z/ecmwfloop.html 20151020_northeast_none.png That drought buster started much earlier however, right around Labor Day of 2002 with the start of a bunch of nor'easters. I'm very surprised how late we've gone this year with a continuation of the mid and late summer pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The endless summer ridge right on top of us from May through September was very impressive for the combination of warm and dry. But we are seeing the first signs of the Nino trough taking shape over the Southeast this month as the STJ becomes more active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprisingly, this October so far, doesn't look good for Greenland blocking for DJF average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
