| The week started off very warm with a high of 75° last Sunday which was the high of the week. Temperatures cooled a little but were still mild/warm with highs in the upper 60's to low 70's. Lows were in the 30's except on Thursday when the low was only 50° probably due to some breezy conditions. Also, on this morning, it was very hazy and smoky from prescribed burns that are going on in several places across northern Arizona. The low of the week was 31° on Friday and Saturday. Besides being breezy for a few days, there were no strong winds. It was a dry week with no precipitation falling. No change in the surrounding areas with grasses and plants slowly drying and leaves falling off trees and shrubs. Saw a deer on a morning walk and a scrub jay in the yard. Also, saw a huge frog in the pond. |

| We had about 2.5 inches from the atmospheric river that came in starting Monday night through Tuesday. The heaviest rains were well north of us, around Eureka, and the winds here were not as strong as predicted. Our fire department had planned to deal with many downed trees, but there was only one. The ocean conditions were pretty severe, so no fishing or water sports this week. The rainy season is starting a bit slow, as it did last year, with only 1.54 inches in October. We'll hope for a repeat of the strong rains in November and December we had last year to recharge the ground water. Not as many tourists in town this week, so we locals could enjoy the mild temperatures and bright blue skies without fighting traffic. |

| General: I categorized this November to date as mildly dry based upon last year. By this time in 2024 we had already received nearly 3" of snow and at least .5" of melt liquid. We have received no moisture in November yet, and we should get about 2" of snow and 1.5" of liquid, based on my long-term and 4 year totals of snow accumulation and gauge catch, respectively.
Agriculture: It looks like our neighbors may have planted winter wheat again, though I haven't verified that. This may reflect changing markets as much as weather-related decision-making. Certainly, winter wheat was a viable crop last year, even with deeply cold weather.
Energy: We're still producing more than we use on relatively clear days. Yesterday our solar array produced 52.21 kWHR and we used 41.77 kWHR, which included a lot of baking. It was a partly cloudy day. The day before that we used more than we produced, with an overcast day. The really good news on the world front is the note in NewScientist that renewable energy sources, particularly solar energy, now exceed traditional fossil fuel consumption. It is a ray of hope.
Fire: risk is low, and we've seen people in the area burning slash piles.
Plants/wildlife: Winter birds, for sure. Still seeing deer on our property, and hearing pheasants. Cedar Waxwings, pine siskins, and, surprisingly, still some robins! The beaver have nicely repaired their dam on the Buckskin pond area, and seem to be as industrious as, well, beavers.
water: We're a little behind for the year, but it's early days for November. |

The turf is really dry and could use a good soaking before winter. No rain at all this past week, We did get a little yesterday afternoon but its not enough to even talk about. Leaves are falling from Maple and Hickory trees. Oak tree leaves are just starting to turn and will likely start dropping soon. Its going to be a late fall cleanup season that's later than usual.

YTD precipitation is at 88 percent of 30 yr NOAA Norm which is listed as near normal. US Drought Monitor showing moderate drought conditions for this area. With the winds this past week many of the trees that had changed color have lost their leaves. Area harvest appears nearly complete. Area rivers (Mississippi, Rock and Green) are low. There have been a couple news stories this past week regarding the low level of the Mississippi affecting barge traffic and shipping.

| Just over an inch of rain for the week has kept soil moisture and stream flow near normal. With night temperatures dropping into the 20's and 30's and day temperatures peaking in the low 50's, most plants have entered dormancy. I harvested the last of the fall planted spinach, leaving only parsnips to overwinter in the garden. A few late dandelions are flowering in the driveway and the forsythia bush has sprouted several confused blossoms. Strong wind during the week stripped most of the remaining leaves from the trees. Only the weeping willows by the pond still have leaves and they are thinning rapidly. White tail deer remain active. Cottontail rabbits have become more visible as vegetation dies back. I finished my annual mowing of the old pasture where goldenrod seems to have been very prolific this year. Greylock hiking and biking trails are leaf covered and also wet in the usual places. |

| Four days this week brought measurable rain, but it didn't amount to much, only 0.29". Strong winds came with the low pressure fronts as well, leaving behind lots of twigs to clean up.
Despite the strong winds and rain, Norway maples are still hanging on to many of their leaves. That's spreading out fall cleanup chores. Temperatures have been quite comfortable for spending time outdoors too.
Weather forecasts suggest colder temperatures will settle in this week with freezing temps overnight (I brought my inner gauge and funnel inside this morning and checked my snow board this week for potential maintenance to-do's).
Most of the birds have migrated now, leaving behind mostly crows and sparrows. Squirrels and chipmunks are out and about gathering up maple seeds and other edibles for winter.

Lawns are green (white with snow this morning), but grass growth has slowed towards dormancy. The trees around here continued at peak fall colors, though leaves are falling fast now and people are busy blowing and raking leaves, birds are showing up in greater numbers at the bird feeder, and squirrels are busy harvesting our bumper crop of acorns and black walnuts. Local farmers are busy harvesting their fields with their huge equipment often seen going from field to field on local roads.

Growing season definitely over except for the Mullen, Chives, and Mint. Grass till green. Husband mulched leaves into grass yesterday. Still using heat pump most of the time. Not cold enough for the regular furnace, even overnight. Sunlight getting to be less and less to charge up our solar lights. They stay on only 1/2 the night. Luckily we have 4. No chipmunks seen at all. Bees and Yellow Jackets are gone. Only squirrels out. Woodpeckers and Nuthatches seen on the suet. Have seen Crows and geese overhead. Crows flying north and geese south. Not many of either type. No water restrictions. A friend just got a Covid vaccine so those are happily still available. Hiking conditions in the White Mountains are definitely more dangerous with the snow that people from out of the area can easily get caught in a blizzard without taking precautions. Weather reports include instructions for people who want to hike to bring supplies besides food and water, a shelter of some kind, layers of clothing, crampons, and some sort of emergency beacon. The Merrimack River that runs past our park, still seems quite low since the log that has been stuck on the opposite river bank is still dry and above the water level. |

| I'm going to hold the report to Mildly Dry, just like last week, because I don't see many signs of condition *change*. However, it's always possible that we are still in drought conditions overall. With the garden season done, it's very hard to know what is going on in the dirt. The basement is still on the dry side and leaves falling from trees dry up in 1-2 days. But, we also had 0.5" plus or minus of precipitation in the past week. Thus something is better than nothing. Local river is a little higher than very low (lower than it should be this time of year).
Grass is still green. While there are a lot of brown trees now, there are still a few trees (maples, oaks) and shrubs (lilacs) holding on and letting their leaves drop slowly over time.
In the garden, I just let kale go to the compost pile, along with the last potted alyssum. The last branches have been tended to. I keep scanning the yard, trying to make sure that the last things that need to be put away, are. I'm also reminding myself that from here on, things get covered in snow and I'll see them again in the spring.
Geese activity has been low. Heard robins in the past week. Goldfinches and possibly grosbeaks have been moving about as flocks.
Allergies have been low, but present. Winter systems now approach bringing their associated body pains.
Currently facing an ice and snow storm, which has brought the very first observed snow flakes. And the air feels like a storm; gentle, but biting and filled with moist potential. "The kind of cold that gets into your bones" is here. |

| The .62” this week was very helpful. However, we’re still not quite caught up to. “normal“. Streams look to be a little bit low. There’s enough moisture for winter growing plants to grow, but there’s no reserve moisture in the soil. A good inch or two get us back to normal. Although colors in the surrounding woods are starting to fade there are still some bright spots with its native and non-native such as Japanese maple, we are almost to peak color. |
