CoastalWx Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 GFS op and Euro op are very different here around day 10. Euro is quite mild while GFS drops another big cold front. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of EPS was intriguing with EPO ridge into Canada and SW US troughing. Would need to wait several days after I think for anything exciting.

Doesn't anyone remember last year about the same time? There are many calling for a December to remember as far as snowfall goes. And a lot of people were on board. Well, we all know, it was completely opposite. So, to be saying that's going to be a torch December now is laughable. But I feel like this is a conversation that's repeated often. Anything can happen, anything can change, and it will change, especially a month out. Anyone who feels otherwise, good luck with the disappointment ( and if you're right, consider yourself very lucky ). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually a lot of leaves still on the trees by the time of the last town pickup in early December. Sent from my SM-A546U using Tapatalk Expand The big oak 50 yards from the house is down to about 20% leafed. The pin oaks planted in Farmington (they're not native to Maine) still have perhaps 3/4 of their leaves. Usually, those trees have the brightest fall color of any oak, with a deep scarlet, but this year they were a mousey yellow with only a sprig here and there showing any red. Wind is backing down, but this morning it was fierce - dumped a large dead ash on our road (and fortunately it broke apart for easy removal) and not only blew around the traffic cones where some roadwork was being done in New Sharon but also tipped over some of the 4-foot-square caution signs. The 38 when I reset the max-min last evening will hold as the day's high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFS likes it. Pavers aren’t on yet but probably go on the 17th if the place opens. In a world run by lawyers, god forbid someone slips and falls somewhere they are visiting almost solely for the winter weather. Gotta love the irony. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
