TUE

77°F 25°C
52°F 11°C
WED

80°F 26°C

Great weather for using the chain-saw, splitting and hauling wood, and closing down the garden and all! Can't wait the the first fire in the woodstove!

Bit of a cold snap due tonight; temps down to 0 early morning ! But tomorrows forecast is better and the following evening has temps of 9 degrees ?!
It definitely felt colder this morning and certainly this evening.
I hate winter ! Just glad I still have a week in Spain to look forward to before Halloween. Once we hit Halloween I know it's all down hill, can't say I am even looking forward to Christmas this year and I usually enjoy it.

I do believe the cool fall weather will arrive eventually! It's just not natural to be cutting, splitting, hauling, and stacking firewood in our weather.

I will almost guarantee in only 3 months, we'll be in the teens F (~ -5ish Centergrade)

Not me this time ... in southern Ontario we still have the southerly flow ... temps with the humidex around 30. Blame the guys in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, they are having the cool weather. And as far as wet goes, we have had only a little more than half of the usual summer rain. Our big concern is the low water levels in the Great Lakes. But we will be into milder (high teens) temps by the weekend, and, if the long range forecast holds, we will have single digit highs by the second week in October.

But the leaves are turning and the show is just as beautiful as it always is. My two Maples are turning, a nice contrast to the big Elm I have.

Best wishes from paradise.

There are 2 large trees in my lounge window view - sycamore and norwegian maple. The sycamore always hibernates first - has about 10% yellow leaves already and a few have fallen (on my car )

Leaves falling on the car is not bad ... in the great ice storm of '99 a whole bloody tree fell on my car

They say that due to the severity of our drought that the foliage will be really off this year. I guess it just will help us appreciate it the next time they show in all their brilliance!

I don't think ours will be all that "off." But I know what you mean; fall in all it's colors is acknowledged as the most beautiful of the seasons here, and no doubt in your part of the world too. There's always next year.

Every day this week in supposed to be cooling down. Hate to beat a dead horse but this is not cooling down:

<LI class=cf>
Culpeper, VA

Clear 32°

• Thursday
  
  33° / 16°
• Friday

Except for the continual heavy sweat through "winterous" chores, this has become of some intrigue. Still harvesting alot of veges that should been long gone, the chicks and guineas are still feasting on insects, have got to finish some spring projects. In other words, these weather reports truly aren't meant to be whinges, more accurately, just weather reports from across the pond!

[Eric]

32 is not "cooling down"! We have had a week of much higher than normal temps, but today it looks like 17 for a high, with some rain, and the weekend, uniformly nice: 20 for a high, low teens at night and clear. But it seems as if the real fall weather will not arrive until the end of the first week of October. Watched a show the other night on what is happening in the high Arctic, scarey. Don't expect too many cold northerly flows this winter. But maybe that's a good thing.

You mean I've been killing myself in this heat cutting, splitting, stacking firewood for naught. I'm hoping for a nice long cold winter. I love it when all of life seems to slow down with the snow storms and all!

I spent the evening visiting friends and munching on cabernet and shiraz grapes directly from the vines (leaving the stems on the vine, ) and picking/harvesting Avocados and Pomegranates , a sure sign fall/autumn is on its way

just a tip, Pomegranate juice is the best meat tenderizer there is for game meat , deer/elk/pig/bear/wild turkey etc. , (think its mentioned in the Bible), and know for a fact that the Bedu use it for tenderizing camel and goat meat , just make sure you use only the juice, not the pith or the pits

hey Brian, the only reason we have snow in California is so we can go ski-ing , it's what we do when we can't surf ..........
