Then they should have just had it on Sunday evening then, because a lot of people who work in person aren't even going to be home or just getting home, and not ready to be on their front porch or take their kids out at that time.

But 5 on a weekday? That's still basically rush hour. I know more people these days WFH, especially on Monday, but next year Halloween will not be on a Tuesday.

I don't get why the city is doing it so obnoxiously early. A lot of people are just getting home from work or aren't even home from work at 5:00. The suburbs aren't starting until 6:00

The leg space sounds wonderful. I did a flight from Vegas to back here non-stop a few weeks ago, and it was a little cramped.

Okay? This was so long ago that nearly half of the people on Reddit weren't even alive then probably

I've heard very good things about flying with Alaska

Pittsburgh has officially had its first freeze of the year. For about 15 minutes this morning, the temperature fell to 32.

An uncle of mine had him as his PCP. He always spoke the praises about Dr. Rabinowitz.

Do you think the government or anyone will force them to not pay out a dividend? Lol

I hope so 🤞

True. I would grab a coffee early in the afternoon like twice a week when I was in person everyday and go to CVS at least once a week. Not anymore for both of those now hah

I don't make over 60k+ lol, so if anyone has leads I'm down to hear them 😂

I'm definitely not bringing in big bucks haha, but I can afford my rent without a roommate and my car payment, so I guess I'm doing better than a lot of people. I save over $1,000 a year by not having to deal with commuting much too.

WFH, but I get together in person at the office with my team twice a month

Fish Fridays aren't really a thing in Pittsburgh outside of Lent.

This has definitely been one of the, if not the most consistently fall like falls I can remember. Most Octobers we are good for a day or two where it gets to near 80, but once we had that last day in the 80s 5 weeks ago, that was it.

You should be ok in and around most of Allegheny County, but I would imagine outlying areas are definitely past peak.

I would say the city is still pretty close to peak color, but I have definitely noticed a lot more leaf dropping in the last few days, so this weekend will be your last best bet to see good color in the city. In places like Deep Creek, I would imagine they're way past peak at this point.

This has been the coolest October we've had in this region in over a decade, so the colors came in a bit earlier than they have in recent years. .

Good stuff, thanks

I mean, human influenced climate change is clearly a real thing, but that's not why it didn't get below freezing when it was pretty cold last week. It was too cloudy at night for the temperature to drop much.

Official temperatures are measured 6 ft above the ground or so, and cold air sinks, so if it's 33 or 34 above the ground, it's totally possible for it to be 32 or 31 at ground level in certain areas.

The coldest it has been in October 2022 in Pittsburgh is 33°. I thought that it would have been clear I meant just this October, but apparently not.

Through yesterday, the average temperature this month in Pittsburgh has actually been a little over 3 degrees below normal. Just because it hasn't been below a certain temperature doesn't mean it's been a warm fall.

Technically it didn't at Pittsburgh International, where Pittsburgh's official weather observations are taken, but it's entirely possible it did at your location. You can still have frost too even if it doesn't hit freezing of course.

It's kind of crazy we haven't had that first freeze yet considering up until this past weekend, October had been well below normal. The coldest it's been for Pittsburgh this month officially is 33.
