Re: Weird season - my thoughts

Finding that elusive peak in any given season is tricky but between the NEK and the Cape Cod and RI/CT shoreline peak foliage can last as long as a month Sometimes you need to be creative. While Vermont is known for her foliage, all of New England is beautiful in the fall, so sometimes you need to t...

Re: Wretched Rain Event Sat - low wind - how will leaves far

BM I am thinking around daybreak till late evening, so just about all the daylight hours. Still could see a sprinkle or two Sunday but generally dry. Some really good news is that the models are trending towards a less windy even, especially over the NEK as the main energy stays to the West and Nort...

Re: Wretched Rain Event Sat - low wind - how will leaves far

Well CT, looks like about .50 inches of rain with locally higher amounts. The big question is how fast the low along the coast deepens as the main low will be centered back across the Great Lakes. With regards to winds on Saturday there will be one low in the mid atlantic and one in the great lakes....

Re: Weird season - my thoughts

Well in the next 10 days we will have 2 good cold shots coming. The warm pattern is just about over. The first shot will come this weekend and even reach all the way to Florida. After a brief moderation another cold shot arrives midweek. We may not get frosts but Monday and Tuesday highs may struggl...

Re: The Weather & Foliage Gods & Mother Nature In Sync for 2

Columbus day weekend…really CT….I'm good but not that good! ROFL!! The best I can say is the pattern is such that it seem...

Re: The Weather & Foliage Gods & Mother Nature In Sync for 2

Well there may be no hard frosts the next week but the weather may not be the best after Monday. Enjoy the warmth and sun the next few days. A cold front arrives Tuesday, probably with nothing more than clouds and a few sprinkles. After that things get murky. The cold front stalls Southeast of New E...

The Foliage Network does a really nice job of covering all the Northeast with foliage updates on Mondays and Thursdays. I've been following them for years and they always seem to agree with this forum. Here is todays report! http://www.foliagenetwork.com/index.php/foliage-reports/foliage-reports-nor...

Re: Today in Sutton VT

Thanks for the pictures! I've been drooling waiting for someone to post some :D Mainly clear weather looks to be the case with pleasantly warm days and cool nights through about Oct 3rd. There may be some cooler weather at that point but no signs of really adverse weather at all in the next 14 days....

They will probably peak in a week to a week and a half. And as an interesting side note Sugarloaf Ski area has been making SNOW in the mornin...

Re: Lunar Eclipse 10/8/14

Your Welcome. I wanted to share because this is a really rare opportunity, but not quite. It will actually happen again next year. Sept 28th 2015 will be a total lunar eclipse. Funky how a rare event will happen in consecutive years, so if this year is a bust, well you get a second shot! Being it wi...
