turbo said:We never broke 70 deg here today, which was nice, since I got the chance to grill nice rib-eyes for my wife, father and brother, along with steaming corn on the cob. My wife made a nice potato salad, spruced up with my bread-and-butter pickles and she baked a nice batch of baked beans. Combined with cucumbers, carrots, and dip, and a fresh salsa that was 100% from our garden, we had a feast on the deck. I love fresh salsa with corn chips. Tomatoes, green peppers, onions, chilies, cilantro, etc, all from 75 feet away in the garden. Can't get much fresher than that.
When we have a cookout, it's time to reset some bars. It's just nice that it is cool and dry enough now for me to function outside, so I can grill steaks, visit, chat, etc. The last month or so, the air has felt like mud - very heavy and wet. We are getting very wet weather while parts of the south (Texas, most notably) are suffering drought, parched crops and the threat of wildfires.BloodyFrozen said:Sounds delicious:!)

We may someday yearn for a return to the days when "Baby it's cold outside".
Same here. Fall is usually beautiful here, but this summer's drought turned many leaves brown and many have already fallen.Astronuc said:It's been in 40's or 50's at night, and 60's or low 70's during the day - and mostly rain.
I remembered at the last minute to bring my peppers in.dlgoff said:Dang. It was 35°F this morning here. I hope this isn't a sign for an early winter.
I always love the first snow. Then not so much.Dembadon said:I woke up this morning to a 1/2 inch of snow on my car. :grumpy:

When I lived in upstate NY, the local tv station would have their annual "guess which day we'll have our first 6" snow. Of course the first snow in Sept could be 18".
Evo Child was born in a blizzard on Oct 3rd there.
Jimmy Snyder said:I just got back inside after spending the afternoon reading in the sun. I guess it was about 72 degrees give or take. Perfect weather for being outside.
A foot of heavy wet, back-breaking snow will plaster areas north and west of I-95 Saturday, causing massive power outages, downed trees and travel nightmares.
Yeah and "local weather forecasts" fall under "predicting the future" and obviously should be posted in Skepticism & Debunking.Pythagorean said:This thread violates PF rules, please keep your opinions about the weather to yourself.

turbo said:My generator is all fueled up and ready to go. Heavy, wet snow will take out lots of trees that were weakened by the summer's microbursts and twisters. Might not be able to make it to chat tomorrow.
turbo said:No, the drought took many of the leaves before fall arrived. Most trees are bare.
We never can tell here. This is a tricky place to forecast weather, with arctic highs to the north, the Atlantic to the south and east, and storm-systems that tend to sweep up the east cost. Sometimes just a few miles' displacement or a change in elevation can make all the difference. It's sunny and about 40 degrees outside, and I have a fire going in the wood-stove (first of the year). Later this afternoon, I'll fill the woodbox so at least we'll have heat if all the power goes out.WhoWee said:Almost a good thing - are you expecting freezing rain with snow?
