Bliz299 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Low here also 55F. Interestingly 55F is just 1F below today's normal low. The nights have been soooo above normal! Looks like we're heading back in that direction. FWIW my normal (1981-2010) monthly low for Sept. is 47F. Unless something radical happens tonight 55F will be this Sept.'s low.

Hurricane Agnes Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Adding to the list of 55-as-a-low posts this morning. Last time it was that low here was back in June, although I've had a 56 since then back on September 9. Currently 73 and partly cloudy, with some nice puffy fair-weather cumulus!

I want to be where first frosts hit by October 1st and winter starts in mid November with first snow, but not overkill cold and snow. Probably central New England areas I imagine.

Probably central New England areas I imagine. My Aunt and Uncle live up in SW New Hampshire and this about describes their winters. I'm definitely moving up there at some point in my life. Going up for Christmas pretty much every year is the best since we get a white Christmas with snow on the ground 90% of the time and honestly I've had legit white Christmas snowstorms up there at least 25% of the time. Plus the summers are shorter in duration and way less intense and it isn''t overpopulated but also not the boonies. I love it up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably central New England areas I imagine. You can find spots in CNE that average 60-65" per year, but also areas that average 130-150", so you could find your non overkill snow spot. Don't think you can avoid the cold though, it doesn't discriminate as much.(Maybe Coastal NH) I've hit at least -20F every year since moving here(S VT) 5 years ago. Here is a pic from one of our NE posters in SVT last March....this might be considered overkill...lol 4 hours ago, The Iceman said: My Aunt and Uncle live up in SW New Hampshire and this about describes their winters.

As someone who moved from Chester County to VT, I can concur on those accounts. Love the weather and lifestyle here- summers are awesome(except this one which was even humid and warm here) Jobs are tough here in SVT ( I work remotely) But S NH has more opportunities with Concord and Manchester and somewhat closer commute to Boston.

That pic just makes me (and many others in this sub-forum) smile. Closest to that much snow on the ground around these parts was after Feb. 10th 2010.

Seasons starting and ending a month late.... Now this could be totally off base but maybe seasons are no longer aligning to the solar cycle and are starting/ending later due to the insulation from greenhouse gasses. Warmer air doesn't escape as rapidly even as we receive less sunlight leading to a lag period of temperature decrease. Maybe some met student will see this post and do a thesis on this because I have noticed this delay of season changes particularly since 2010.

The Iceman Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Also interesting how we are seeing these extremes in the pattern of late. Extreme wet for most of the last 2 months but looking into the long range, the ridge in the east looks to be locked in. Would be amazing to see one of the wettest Septembers on record followed by a very dry October, but the GEFS/EPS are not budging that ridge for the foreseeable future. Really looking locked in like the trough was the last two months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August is now the second July, September is the new August and October is the new September and this transition has happened scary quick.
