Fall Foliage With TR27: Bridge To Summer (10.03.25)

Update 33 of the 2025 season of Fall Foliage With TR27

10.03.25

Yesterday was 60s, today was mid-70s and tomorrow through October 7 is 80s, so in that way, today was the Bridge To Summer. Today was just as good as yesterday but even warmer and it looks like tomorrow will continue that trend. Today's high is about as warm as we should truly get in the month of October but we're going past that starting tomorrow and that will continue through October 7 when fall finally arrives on October 8!

Here's the summary and fall foliage pics below:

For today, day 33:

High: 75°F
Average: 66°F
(+9)

Today topped out around 75°F and to be honest, for early October, that should be as warm as it gets for the rest of the year during a warm streak, but we're going about 10 degrees above that in the coming days, very close to pink tier territory, 21+°F above average!

The expected forecast from 10/4-10/17:
10/4: ☀️ 82/50
10/5: ☀️ 85/50 *86 and it's the first pink tier day!
10/6: ⛅ 83/52
10/7: ⛅ 81/58
10/8: 🌧️ 63/37 (76%)
10/9: ☀️ 60/32 *Our first 32°F low! Looks like it's time to bring in the plants for the year, after we get through this 80+ degree weather, that is! However, this is decently below average, as the average low on October 9-10 is 45°F, so 32 is -13, a solid blue tier reading! What this means is that it's a bit early for our first 32, that should happen a little closer to Halloween! However, it is actually around the time we have our first true frost so it makes sense!
10/10: ⛅ 65/39
10/11: ⛅ 69/44
10/12: 🌤️ 66/40
10/13: ⛅ 66/42
10/14: ⛅ 68/41
10/15: 🌧️ 68/45 (44%)
10/16: 🌧️ 66/44 (46%)
10/17: 🌧️ 64/42 (37%)

What this weather is telling me is that true fall is now the 60s, rather than the 50s. The day that will feel most like fall is October 9, with a high of only 60 and straight sunshine expected! The rest of the days after the heat spell are either raining or barely fall with highs around 65-70 rather than the usual 55-65 we expect during the fall season. Keep in mind that at the end of September 2023, we had a high below 60 and Indigenous People's Day weekend in 2024 had a high below 50, so this is quite unusual! It's not looking as bad as it was yesterday, but it's still barely fall with temps in the 60s closer to 70 rather than the 50s! Given how this weather is performing even warmer than 2023/24, I feel like Oct 4-7 might be the end of true summer weather, but I feel that it could still get well above average at a certain point after that we don't know yet, potentially around peak foliage week/close to Halloween. I feel that Oct 8 to maybe the 20th or so will be the current expected weather and that in the last third of the month (potentially on Halloween), we could get warm again, by warm, I mean above 70.

Here's the main pic and fall foliage pics taken today, 10/3/25:



















































This 3-day outlook is the total OPPOSITE of where we should be going in OCTOBER!





























New business in Easthampton, MA!























Hit 100 items again, so that's really it, it still looks like a mix of summer and fall outside, but given the temps and the foliage, it's going to be more on the summer side for the next 4 days! By October 8, fall will actually come and October 9 might not even get to 60 outside! I'll see you tomorrow, for foliage from a different location... 😁☀️😎

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...

Fall Foliage With TR27: Back For Peak (10.20.25)

By
Back For Peak Update 36 of the 2025 season of Fall Foliage With TR27 10.20.25 (covers 10.06-10.20 in 1 update, published 10.22) If you thought I gave up, I basically did but that's because life hit me rather hard and I really had no choice. I'm going to use this to catch up, and right now, I'm pretty sure the colors are peak in my area, basically EVERYTHING is orange right now, so if I came back later than this, I would've missed the peak season and therefore would've had like no reason to continue, so it's crucial I come back at this point. What happened over the past 2 weeks: Temps came down, we're FINALLY in fall mode with temps in the 50s/60s expected now Foliage advanced, A LOT, pretty much from scattered to as good as it's going to get! Since I can't make a title card for ALL 15 days, I'll just continue without those for the rest of the season starting here, that was too much work and mainly for Instagram, where NOBODY wants to read a post ...
