When ATL freezes before most of us...  I've touched on 32 but haven't had a good hard freeze yet.

Funny how so many people in the south are talking about already turning on their heat, when it hasn't even gotten into the 30s here yet- and lows in the 40s on only a few days.

With today's 57°-47° range, NYC finished October with a 64.1° mean temperature. That reading surpassed the previous record warmest average of 63.6°, which was set in 1947 and tied in 2007.

Looks like there were even more extreme departures relative to the means north of our area. BTV was +10.7 through the 30th.

These records are being set with such ease that they're no longer noteworthy. People have just gotten used to them by now.

Wow very close for being 35 miles apart. Would be interesting to compare each month.

Freeze Warning for Morris County tonight.  This is right around the time when I should get my first 32F temp.

 Lowest so far is 34.  

 

You sure about that? Average first 32F in my area is October 18th. You should be at least that or earlier.

Down to 42F already. Hoping for end of growing season tonight.

Yeah, I'm not fully confident with that statement, since I don't have any PWS data to back it up.  But, from what I remember, freezes generally occur between the 20th and Halloween.  I do agree though, the true date might be a bit earlier than that.  

42 here as well.
