TugHillMatt Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Looking forward to this upcoming week! Chilly with highs in the low 40s and lows around 30...with SUNSHINE and calm winds! It will be a good week to get outdoor work done, and enjoy the remaining fall colors around here. The weather of the past two weeks (rain, wind, DAMP, and consistently in the 30s/40s) gets to you. I don't know how people in the Pacific Northwest cope with their winters being like that. Uppers 20s with snow is more beautiful, and feels warmer than a soaking 45 degree day!

Hoosier Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Pretty sure the trees on my block are going to have leaves into December at this rate. Still just a mix of dull yellow and green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 It seems that lightning has delayed the MSU-PSU game at Lansing-- temp is 39. Must be elevated instability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The maple colors definitely weren't the nicest they could have been this year...but I have noticed that the trees that are later in changing have been very colorful. Maybe even better than average. The oaks and beeches have been showing some nice colors around here. Maybe the 10 inches of rain we had in October came in enough time to help the color.

cyclone77 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Days just don't get much more miserable than today was lol. Very heavy overcast all day long, 40s, fog, and heavy drizzle. Picked up 0.14" of rain/drizzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmillzz Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 This month is shaping up to be one of the most foul Novembers in recent history. Euro looks particularly vile for the next 10 days. Just absolute misery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmillzz Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I remember a few days ago it was looking like my area would be well into the 60s and possibly even lower 70s tomorrow. Now it's looking like it might barely hit 50. Such a disgusting pattern with everything trending south and weaker, and warm fronts magically stalling just south of my area every single time.

Very heavy overcast all day long, 40s, fog, and heavy drizzle. Picked up 0.14" of rain/drizzle. Same here, though temps were able to rise through the 50s before topping out around 60 earlier tonight. It should have rained here if it was going to be like that. Few of the local meteorologists were of little help in contrast to what NWS and TWC hinted and nailed. A crappy first weekend of November is certainly on tap after a rainy first day of November. 4 hours ago, cmillzz said: This month is shaping up to be one of the most foul Novembers in recent history.

Pray this November isn't going to be a repeat of December 2014 and this past January combined. I'd laugh at the end of the year if this November would end up cloudier than this upcoming December. NWS and TWC currently hinting a period of nice, crisp fall weather suitable for this month come around the middle of the upcoming week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rode my snowmobile till 4am though. Glad you made the most of it, but the wasting of such nice snow on top of hot ground is one of my biggest wx peeves! I'm glad we're getting some consistent cold temps finally to cool the ground before any real snow wants to show up this autumn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 System around the 11th-12th looks a bit interesting. One question being how quickly does the cold air gets dislodged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambana Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Woke up to a Dense Fog Advisory, and then a Severe Thunderstorm Warning, and now a Tornado Watch until 7PM, active fun day. Nothing to exciting with the storms along the boundary, just extremely heavy rainfall and tree stripping winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 My backyard saw 1.14" of rain the last 2 days. So 5 days into November, the month has already seen 2.59" of rain and a trace of snow imby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will never happen. The days of proper ridging in our part of the country seem to be fading (largely due to climate change I think). Here in NW Indiana it might not get above 50 degrees for the rest of the month with the long range looking increasingly horrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmillzz Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 At least Nov 2014 was cool from a historic perspective with the record cold. Nov 2017 is just looking like an absolute train wreck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Over 7" of rain in the last week. Got a new driveway in and got a 3 month old puppy. Neither is going well. Also, day 10 of being sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherbo Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 ...And just like that, winter is here. Smaller inland lakes will be frozen and snow covered by the end of the week. Normal high is 43 and it hasn't been above 38 all month so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisale Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Heavy precip didn't really pan out here, heavier totals ended up to the south. Only about half an inch from the weekend system. Seeing a similarly strange mix of leaves here as well. About 2/3s of trees are totally bare, while the rest are either still green or dull oranges and yellows. Excited about snow prospects for Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nov is gonna see some very warm anomalies. Granted, after 5 days FWA is +4.2°, but that's going to get more than wiped out this coming week. You better hope for a blowtorch second half.
