CoastalWx Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Looks like the front is a few days faster than I thought for early October. Still troughy in the Midwest with a front close by. We watch for homebrew. Definitely looks like a few wetter periods between early next week and beyond to start October. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Pretty mild to warm from now through Sunday. Probably some near to low 80s in spots. Especially Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colors are poppin Agree on the "early" vibe- Although, I must also add that every year it seems that I tend to get fooled by the 'early' assessment, and then it turns out what I'm really seeing ...or remembering rather, is that a particular tree or grove of them may be earlier, while the general setting across the country side ends up being about average by mid October. I do think that year to year, the triggering may be differential within the biomass ...but that means there are regions that could even be late, such that the whole forestry ends up the same? Not sure, but around town here, definitely there are even healthier maples showing significant reds and saffron - it's like an abstract artist loaded up a wet brush with that area of the color wheel, and flicked it at a landscape canvassed by broccoli. My 'General Sherman,' a beautiful 250 to 300 year old maple at the corner of my property, with it's 100 foot spanned canopy and 60 some feet of heights, has always maxed color in the 2nd week of October, and it is almost half dyed already - hard to imagine how it is going to stall for two and half weeks to meet with that particular historical e.t.a.; it seems an early max is imminent. But why...? One thing I am noticing of this 'early' character is that there are more reds than I remember, both in the general...and around town. I'm wondering - hypothetically - if we have some compounding factors enticing the early evacuation of certain pigments... like, green going early, and leaving the red behind ...when perhaps the red tends to leave ( normally) more in the same temporal window.. like in general... Obviously not ubiquitous among all species and even down to the tree individual, depending on the climate that year leading in the latter sense. But year to year... This year we have [ maybe ] two distinct ... plausible triggers that are instructing some early releasing of green: Solar minimum and smoke... I noticed that we were starting to just barely tinge prior to the smoke sky, onset from two weeks ago, Then, we pall-blued the heavens over in this unhealthy weary light, and even dimmed down to orb sun on several consecutive days... When all this red pops immediately coming out of that. Now, I tend to be a sucker for cause-and-effect... particularly, as a patterning...and when two unusual events pass through a given natural domain space, I tend to suspect a causality circuitry exists there...

Who knows... I have yearly pics back to 2010, this is early here anyways. My boy is not a pup anymore and is a total ACATT dog. Spent the hot summer days inside but is prepping for snow. A warm spell coming up but for all intents and purposes we step down week by week. I agree there is causality in nature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Low near 50 this morning, big change from the past 4 days which averaged 59/26 and 12.5 BN, taking the month to -2.7 after being +2 on the 10th. Now we go the other way, though I think the month ends up a bit BN. Morning GFS chopped yesterday's 1.4" for Monday in Augusta down to 0.5". A blip or a trend?

Good move. Those of us who have lived thru previous periods learned as well the hard way or were passed on the information. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And wells are drying up because those same people who can't help but cut their lawn 3 times a week in a major drought are now dumping hundreds of gallons a day on their lawns in an attempt to save them. It really is a massively wasteful endeavor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
