CoastalWx Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Everything is slowing down. Leaves dropping, plants slowly going dormant along with a February angle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing is our foliage in the area is still a week or more ahead of the lower elevations who have had a couple frosts. The colder daytime highs has a bigger effect than frosts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Well here looks a bit different. Surprisingly, it didn't all melt today. Looks like we may end up with 48+ hours of snowcover in mid October, which seems pretty impressive. And of course I just got my shipment of flower bulbs that I need to plant lol! But that should be any day now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The valley went at the same time as the higher elevations, when it’s normally two weeks separated. The maples went bright red in the valley before the elevations...there was a period there when no real color was happening above 2,000ft while reds were bursting down low...night time radiation cold definitely played a big role IMO.

I was quite busy with the battery operated pole saw limbing some trees to get a better view of the areas that we set up in, We jumped one deer, We're hunting on my nephews property and its just been freshly logged, The logger told us he has seen about 8-10 deer in there and a couple big bucks and another two smaller ones and whole bunch of does, There's tracks everywhere on the property. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has little to do with vegetation. It's about filling up the reservoirs and replenishing the watertable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Euro keeps us soggy over the next 3-4 days. 7+ inches in the past 3 weeks, but every event lately has been moisture laden, the firehose just changes angles a bit. Every few days it seems there's an axis of multiple inches of rain through the northeast somewhere going back to late September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to see it build towards snow gradually. I don't need snow yet, at least to the extent some had it this weekend. Overall, it's nice to see precip showing up.
