November Comes A Week Early To New England

After what has been a remarkably warm October so far, reality is setting in.
A chilly, windy Sunday pretty much ended
foliage season around my property in St. Albans, Vermont  

We are now going to get into a stretch of weather pretty typical of November in northern New England. Not exactly pleasant, but I guess that's payback for the beautiful autumn we've had.

There was a special weather statement early this morning for freezing drizzle in the Adirondacks, which sets the tone for the forecast.

Monday will be mild-ish with highs within a few degrees of 60, but that's it. A showery, raw day is on tap for Tuesday, with some clearing in the afternoon.

From then on, at least through Sunday, it's typical November weather, only this time before Halloween.

You know the November drill: Partly to mostly cloudy skies, light rain and snow showers, a chilly breeze to stir the fallen leaves, the roar of the newly bare trees in the wind, and daytime temperatures in the 40s.

This isn't to say we're done with pleasant weather this year. It's always possible we'll get another Indian Summer in November.

But the beach days sure are over.
