Chicopee is reading 75°F, but it feels cool-ish. Gloomy afternoon, must have stopped the temps from rising. Chicopee probably got some sun? Mt. Washington is having its warmest October to-date on record

Edit: never mind, the graph compares the current October with full Octobers

Definitely a drop-off in the fall...

The clouds have arrived! I believe a short wave? Not sure. That helps but still very warm...

Temps... Take note of that Cloud Blob bottom right corner. That could be our weekend storm in the Northeast. Tropical?

Couldn't find the thread to put this in. I think there was one in regards to rapid temp range or something. Anyway.

3rd straight day in the 70s. Maxed out at 73 but due to all the clouds, it didn't feel that warm.

The low was 63! Our second straight low in the 60s...in October.

And.......the first mention of the season.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Burlington VT
352 PM EDT Mon Oct 17 2016

As of 344 PM EDT Monday...ECMWF and GFS models showing some
timing differences on Thursday with the ECMWF faster than the GFS
in bringing rain into the region on Thursday. Models show a
digging upper trough over the Mississippi valley which will
transport plenty of moisture northeast into the region from the
Ohio valley and the lower Mississippi valley on Thursday and
Friday. The cold front associated with this will be slow to move
eastward, as both the ECMWF and GFS models showing a hybrid
subtropical low over the western Atlantic that will drift slowly
northward Thursday and Friday. This low will slow the eastward
progression of the front on Thursday and Friday. Have gone with
likely pops for rain on Thursday and Friday. Models showing some
timing differences on Saturday with the ECMWF much more
progressive than the GFS with less QPF on Saturday, while the GFS
model is slower and suggesting a wetter day and more QPF across
the region on Saturday. Have stuck with the superblend pops from
Saturday through Monday, given the model timing differences. Model
guidance showing colder air aloft will move into the region
Saturday night and Sunday, as an upper trough moves through the
region. The higher summits of the Adirondacks and Green Mountains
will likely see some snow showers Saturday night and Sunday.
