Boredom as far as the eye can see. Probably not too late to plant grass at this point maybe even spinach and kale. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 4-6 weeks we can then flip the script. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inferno to start Mowvember. the old standard method of telecon offer bleak outlook for cold/winter enthusiasts. -pna/rising epo/neutral positive nao, all while the super synoptic indicators are warm dog shit not that anyone asked, and i figure for no one really giving a shit what i want but despite my having been following these ensuing warm anomaly days this weekend, i really am an early/front-loaded winter guy. i get it that even prior to the hockey-stick climate f'ing era we are currently being pumped by, how front-loaded winters were rarer, anyway - but hey, we all have our fetishes - they still seemed to occur every 5 or so years.. obviously history annuls some truly astounding winter storms beyond the first week of february. despite that ... once the solar transition season gets underway around the 10th .. i just seem to be on autopilot and can't stop checking-out. i am an interested met no matter what ...so that keeps me sort of dialed in, but ... i have trouble feeling truly inspired by winter by those late chapters. it's like a book i lose interest in and put down with 3 to go. ha but those rare years where it's white by mid novie and decembers go nuts, i'm all in 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthCoastMA Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 I did some seeding about 12 days ago..been a struggle getting them to sprout. Definitely have to stay on top of the watering, but the upcoming warmth should help a ton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolri_wx Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 Thought of at @Damage In Tolland while reading this in the BOX discussion… Our forestry partners at CT DEEP have requested a special weather statement for elevated fire weather concerns in Hartford and Tolland Counties. We plan on reaching out to our forestry and fire weather partners in RI and MA for their input and a possible special weather statement for those states as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenedet Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 The atmosphere is overall pretty cooked by early Saturday. There should be many spots in SE NH and SNE in mid 70’s; locally near 80, both days. What a beaut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it, but it’s kind of surprising given how terribly cold it can be at that latitude above 4000 ft in the middle of summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I should say mid-October. Maybe there is a some Halloween snow up there that lasted. I know it hasn’t happened on Mansfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 Yeah it doesn’t take much WAA to pop MWN above freezing this time of year with rain. Even an approaching cold front usually does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it hasn’t happened on Mansfield. Just had to look. I found 3 years in which October pack persisted, the earliest start date coming in 1976 when measurable cover began on 10/14. MWN's coldest November helped keep the snow. October 2005 had 78.9" and the depth reached 32", but late November warmth melted it all, with Dec 1-2 w/o measurable. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
