The snow is not that far away and even the Farmer's Almanac is saying we will see plenty of snow. But as for the exact date, here is one possibility.

As we saw the high temps set daily records in much of the United States, Rochester, New York was seeing rain. Lots and lots of rain.

Was it good for the garden and farms? In most cases, yes. The issue this summer was the intensity at times that washed out some of the crops on some farms. The National Weather Service mentioned a record amount of rain.

The 12.25" of precipitation at the #Rochester airport was the greatest recorded in the July-August 2-month timeframe. Old record was 12.12" set back in 1947.
