Update 25 of the 2025 season of Fall Foliage With TR27

09.25.25 (posted 09.26)

What a fitting name for today's update! Today was a very rainy day (though there were significant lulls) and we've received quite beneficial rainfall over the last 2 days or so, and it looks like that will continue for one more night tonight and end by tomorrow when skies clear, mugginess decreases and temps climb to around 80! Yes, on September 26th, it's going to be around 80! And it will be on the 27th. And on the 28th! And on the 29th! And then it stops, before temps return to the low 70s after a chilly start to October. Let's get to that right now.

Here's the summary and fall foliage pics below:

For today, day 25:

High: 72°F
Average: 69°F
(+3)

Today was another day where the weather misbehaved, not only in terms of precipitation (NOT complaining, we needed that rain and is getting a multi-day soaking like this is absolutely best case scenario after such a dry end to the summer!) but in terms of the temperature as well. You might think "it got to 72, that's only 3 degrees above average, surely that's normal", but it's not WHAT the temp was that was abnormal today (though that will DEFINITELY be the case 09.26-09.29!) but it was how the temp behaved today. Last night, temps bottomed out around 63 (absolutely red tier territory for this time of year with yesterday's average low being 50, so that was +13!) and then they stayed in the low-to-mid 60s up until around 4-5 PM and then right before sunset (the 6 PM hour), they spiked to the low 70s and right now, at around 11 PM, the temp is around 70, which is AGAIN quite unusual and probably even MORE abnormal than 24 hours ago!

The expected forecast from 9/26-10/9:
9/26: ⛅ 80/53
9/27: ⛅ 78/58
9/28: ⛅ 81/54
9/29: ⛅ 82/54
9/30: ⛅ 79/44
10/1: 🌤️ 67/38
10/2: ☀️ 64/36
10/3: 🌤️ 69/41
10/4: ⛅ 73/51
10/5: ⛅ 73/50
10/6: ⛅ 71/48
10/7: ⛅ 70/46
10/8: ⛅ 71/47
10/9: ⛅ 69/46

This forecast is better (closer to normal), but the first 5 days of it are definitely NOT normal for the very end of September. At least we get a cooldown, but then it's right back to the upper 60s/low 70s range, barely normal! It's an improvement from the 76 or so that was expected a day or two again at the end of the forecast, but from September 25 (today) through May 19, the average high is less than 70 degrees, so outside of that May 20-Sep 24 timeframe, we really shouldn't be in the 70s anymore as much as I love warmer weather.

Here's the main pic and fall foliage pics taken 9/25/25:















































Looks like soap, but NOPE!







































And that was it!

Fall Foliage With TR27: Back To Normal (09.08.25)

Back To Normal Update 8 of the 2025 season of Fall Foliage With TR27 09.08.25 Today's weather was absolutely gorgeous after the crazy weekend we had that brought TORNADOES to Massachusetts! Keep in mind that we aren't tornado alley, these events are NOT common here in the Northeast, and when they happen, it's almost a freak occurrence! Here's the summary and fall foliage pics below: For today, day 8: High: 77°F Average: 76°F (+1) Today brought us back to normal weather and the pattern we had before the severe weather outbreak on Saturday, 9/6. Bring on the gorgeous weather once again! The expected forecast from 9/9-9/22: 9/9: ☀️ 74/ 49 9/10: 🌧️ 71/ 49 (40%) 9/11: 🌤️ 80/50 9/12: ☀️ 75/ 47 9/13: ⛅ 76/51 9/14: ⛅ 76/54 9/15: 🌧️ 74/51 (34%) 9/16: ⛅ 76/50 9/17: ⛅ 75/50 9/18: ⛅ 71/49 9/19: ⛅ 72/48 9/20: ⛅ 74/50 9/21: ⛅ 76/52 9/22: ⛅ 74/50 I notice a warmup pretty much right at the equinox from low 70s to mid-70s. Since the forecast has now reached the autumnal equinox (9/2...

Fall Foliage With TR27: Where's The Cooldown? (09.17.25)

Where's The Cooldown? Update 17 of the 2025 season of Fall Foliage With TR27 09.17.25 This weather lends the question: Where's The Cooldown? As I've said nearly every day for the past 16 days, it's nowhere to be found! In fact, the latest forecast shows a cooldown this weekend, but "only" down to the low 70s (9/20 MIGHT get stuck in the 60s, but it would almost be 70 if it doesn't get to 70, which is basically average for this time of year), and right after that, during the week of the equinox, we get BACK to the 80s as highs right AFTER the equinox and after THAT, we "only" fall to the low-to-mid 70s. By this time of year, we should start to struggle hitting 70, but it looks like the last 2 weeks of September will not only hit 70 but 80 as well on numerous occasions, and the first day of October is currently expected to be 75, and though that's 14 days out, that's 8°F above average, SERIOUSLY worrying in terms of the climate! We are TOTA...

First Fall Outing Update 18 of the 2025 season of Fall Foliage With TR27 09.18.25 Today was the first day since last fall that I actually did a fall activity, and that was apple picking! However, with lots of sunshine and temps in the lower 80s, it felt more like summer, but then again, it IS technically summer until the 22nd. By this point, we SHOULD be cooling down but the fall cooldown is NOT here and it's nowhere to be found, in fact, it looks like going into the beginning of October, it is going to get WARMER. I'm sorry, WHAT?! Yeah, we're totally screwed in terms of the climate but hey, enjoy the nice weather! Here's the summary and fall foliage pics below: For today, day 18: High: 85°F Average: 72°F (+13) Let's take a look at the highs in the 2nd half of September (16-30) in 2023, 2024 and 2025 (Sep 16-18 actual highs, 19-30 expected highs) so you can see what I'm talking about. We'll keep it simple so no colorized highs or anything like that, just th...
