coastalplainsnowman Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 This morning I am witnessing odd grey, vaporous, almost 'puffy' formations overhead, obscuring my view of the sun and the sky. Has anyone ever seen these before? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACRUS Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 44 / 41 off a low of 33. Warmup underway upper 60s today some spots to 70. Near / low 80s Wed and Thursday. Itll either be a race to midnight if showers maintain with the frontal passage and ending any dry stretched or itll be a arid front. Near normal into this weekend before the ridge rebuilds Tue - Thu with much warmer than normal (70s) again. Trough and front delayed till 7-9th where the next rain chances could materialize 7 weeks later from late Sep, last rainfalls. Overall warmer than normal and dry through the 7th. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hit 35 this morning twice it looks like, definitely a bit below our forecast low as well. Our leaves down here went pretty much from green to red and then down, and everything is starting to look a bit grey. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANDA Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 All the parks and recreation spots around my area and up into Sussex county have Extreme Fire Danger signs posted. I live across the street from Berkshire Valley Wildlife Preserve, took a walk there yesterday and it is just bone dry and dusty. No improvement for at least a week and maybe 10 days. Terrible. I'm honestly surprised fires have not been more numerous across the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The County Executive here in Orange County issued a State of Emergency yesterday banning all outside burning except for charcoal and gas grills for cooking.

bluewave Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 3 hours ago, SACRUS said: 2011 Snowfall https://www.weather.gov/media/phi/StormReports/October292011.pdf A very memorable event with the record snow and NYC dropping to 33° in October. Most recent years have been struggling to get below 40° in October. Many more top 10 warmest minimums above 40° for the month these days. The rare recent exception was October 2020 that got to 32° which foreshadowed that great winter pattern relative to the last several winters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guinness77 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 I don’t know how many of you are familiar with the trails that go from Belmont Park in North Babylon down to Argyle and the GSB in Babylon but they are (unsurprisingly) bone dry. Ive been doing the bike now on the trails because I’m saving my pulled groin for men’s league footie games and the dirt is almost coarse sand at this point. Those trails are (imo) usually damp and slightly muddy even on days with no precip and this past week I had to be real careful not to wipeout on the sandy twist-and-turns.

dWave Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 I havent seen any, but Central Park is reporting light rain. I wonder if it will be measurable? We've come this far might as well get the 0 rain for Oct in the record books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
