October Averages

Check out the Calendar above…   If you look closely you will see only one day in October with a positive number… and is only a one above.  That means that we have had only one day this month with above average temperatures.  Over the last eight days 6 where over ten degrees below normal.  So far this month, it has been cold.  But thankfully nothing more then a couple flakes of wet snow have come with these abysmal temperatures.

October Records

Twenty years ago today we had a record snowfall of 4.8 inches.  While a snow like that is rare for the area they do happen.  Thankfully for us this cold weather is beginning to move out.  A ridge is beginning to build in which will get our temperatures back up to perhaps even surpassing our average highs.
