It’s amazing to think we’re still only in October. The U.S. has ALREADY suffered 3 historic harvest-wrecking snowstorms, broken 3,575 all-time low temperature records (to the 18th, NOAA), and yet STILL has time for a further week of unprecedented and prolonged Arctic cold:

Halloween has a great chance of registering below-freezing temperatures in all 50 U.S. states.

Typically, such cold isn’t suffered until late December through February, according to the NWS.

The previous premature big-freeze was on November 18, 2014, and even that was incredibly early, prompting meteorologist Tim Buckley to write: “This typically happens a few times during winter, but is very rare this early in the season” — and this year’s first 50-state-freeze is set to beat that by almost THREE WEEKS.

Sadly, and of course that map doesn't show <32 F in my neck of the woods.

Ending Mosquito season in October would be a wonderful gift.
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Unfortunately, our mosquito season has ended, and with it, gardening season. In the salvage pick, I got a bushel of tomatoes (all green), now wrapped and hopefully ripening...

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I started hardening the seedlings for the fall and started seeds for the winter season yesterday.  First time growing seedlings under LED grow lights, and the difference is just amazing.

Yep. No skeeters, and missed the stink bug invasion nearly altogether. Fine by me.  :beer:

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

That's the weather for you.  Constantly changing from one year to the next.
