"I remember October being freaking cold in the early 80’s."

As a kid (I'm 72), I live in Rochester, New York and remember having to wear our winter jackets under our Halloween costumes just to go trick or treating.

....my brother and I were chatting tonight about the cold nights we went Halloweening and had to wear our coats it was so cold.

Here in Western Pa Halloween was postponed until tomorrow night or Sat. because of rain and wind gusts up to 75 mph....temps will drop to the 30’s later.

Same Middletown and Montgomery side of things in NY.
I lived in Sussex NJ back in the 80’s and remember freezing my backside off every Halloween.

Good thing we have that 0.7 degree rise in temperatures over the next century to count on thanks to global warming. Without that we might freeze. :-/

Howdy. I haven’t improved at all, but I fight on. Just praying for some kind of miracle now.

Thanks.

Same with the soy beans they have been setting in the fields ready for harvest. I to was surprised by the writers lack of knowledge.

It’s not supposed to be this cold in October?

How ‘bout tomorrow, when it’s November?

Corn is harvested after it snows quite often, but not always after the prolonged, in the ground snow. Not unusual for corn to be harvested mid-November, at least in Michigan. Seems like the weather is more in line with my childhood.

Indeed. All roads lead to higher taxes and fewer services and resources according to those chowderheads “because whatever bad.”

They were possibly the benefactors of consolidations. A lot of folks have give up farming to the point where family farms a slender fraction of what they were a century ago.

Western MD mountains had tornado warnings all night.

We don’t get tornadoes because they fizz out as soon as they hit all the mountains.

WTF.

The wind is blowing like mad, even back here in my holler, where we never get wind.

Van Halen song “Right Now” says “Right now is just a space between ice ages”.

Only Van Hagar song I ever liked.

Couple years ago at the beginning of October, we had a combo snow/ice storm.

The leaves were still on my trees and I spent hours in the cold, smacking the ice off them so they wouldn’t break.

Thank God this October was not like that one
