Also, October 30th had one of the wackiest reverse temperature contrasts between north and south I've seen:
Warm air wrapping around the storm to the north of Pennsylvania precluded snowfall even at high elevations in New York and New England. In fact, a daily record high of 70° was recorded in Burlington, Vermont on October 30th while it was 27° and snowing in Hot Springs, Virginia!
As I mentioned, 6288 feet on New Hampshire's highest peak it was above freezing enough to be rain with no chance of snow while the Central Appalachians were experiencing snow at much lower elevations. Maximum snowfall 36" at only 2200 feet in Richwood, WV.
Sun has peaked out from time to time the past couple days, but generally it's been pretty cloudy for over a week now. November is off to a chilly start as well.
Quite cold in Upstate NY. Currently 33 F with snow in Saranac Lake. Monday is forecasted to not even reach the freezing mark:

Current temps... Pretty much in line with what Im thinking for winter as far as where the cold goes. Light blue line is where it would get fridgid. But look at the current below normal temps vs the above normal in the south
We have just had the first snow of the season in my locale. Drove through a moderate snow shower on the way to work. Quite large flakes. It was settling on the heathland but not on the road.
That seems like alot of tree damage from Sandy when your so far from the coast (I'm guessing more than 60 miles inland).
I'm only a few blocks from the beach and my tree damage was not much different than yours . Although you were closer to the center of the hurricane than I was, still a bit shocked to see trees down up there.
