Brrr….it’s a chilly fall rain out there this morning. A portent of things to come – and none of it good. Won’t be long before that will be sleet, hail, snow…all the ugly things that winter brings our way. I know. I know. We’ve got more 60 degree days coming, maybe even a 70 degree or two. But it’s coming. It’s on the way.

Currently 48 with a NW wind of 10 mph. Feels like 44. Dew Point 38, Humidity 71%, Barometer 30.33 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 7:37 am, Sunset 7:26 pm. Partly cloudy with a high of 58. WNW winds 5 – 10 mph.

Feels decidedly fall-like this morning. And I’ve got my heat on during the night now. 40 anything is way to cold for me!  I can just see everyone with their rakes and leaf blowers at the ready. They’re going to be needed them before too long now.

Currently 57 with a W wind of 8 mph. Feels like 56. Dew Point 51, Humidity 80%, Barometer 30.01 & rising, Visibility 9 mi., Sunrise 7:36 am, Sunset 7:28 pm. Cloudy with a 40% chance of afternoon rain showers. High 61. W winds 10 -20 mph.

Cloudy to overnight clearing. Low 38. WNW winds 10 – 15 mph.

We’ve gone from unseasonable heat to now unseasonable cold. Tonight is going to be nudging down pretty close to the freezing mark. Not good. Much too soon for this nonsense. Looks as if we might see a bit of sun tomorrow but after that not for days … matter of fact that could go on until about next Thursday. Yikes! Too many rainy days heading our way.

Currently 51 with a S wind of 8 mph. Feels like 49. Dew Point 47, Humidity 84%, Barometer 30.08 & falling, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 7:35 am, Sunset 7:30 pm. Partly cloudy. High 67. SW winds 10 -15 mph.

Partly cloudy becoming cloudy overnight. Low 51. SSW winds 5 -10 mph.

The sunshine makes it seem warmer outside than it is but at least it’s pretty and makes you feel positive. It won’t be long before missing the sunshine will be what we experience most days. Those are the days you plan to keep super busy on – find ways to muddle through the dark months of winter, waiting for spring and the return of some clear skies. Blue skies. Alas…it’s on the way.

Currently 54 with a W wind of 13 mph. Feels like 50 degrees. Dew Point 46, Humidity 75%, Barometer 75%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:34 am, Sunset 7:32 pm. Cloudy with a high of 62. WNW winds 10 – 20 mph.

Partly cloudy tonight, low 45. SW winds 5 -10 mph.

Light jacket in the morning weather. We did get .35″ of rain from the Cold Front that went by yesterday. It was an off and on rain, nothing steady or serious. At least in my area. There likely were some strong storms around the state, but me, in my little donut hole of nothing serious weather-wise, at least so far, missed it all. And happily.

Currently 67 with an average SSW wind of 4 mph. Feels like 67. Humidity 95%, Barometer 29.90 & rising, Visibility 5 mi., Sunrise 7:32 am, Sunset 7:34 pm. 50% chance of scattered thunderstorms in the afternoon. Some storms could be severe. High 76. SSW winds 10 – 15 mph.

80% chance of overnight rain and t-storms. Low 52. WSW winds 10 -20 mph.

Got about .09″ overnight and looking at the big map, it does appear as if some substantial rain could be taking aim at us later today and overnight. More leaves down before their time, I reckon.

Watching the squirrels this morning beginning their peanut burial. Somehow critters know when the seasons are about to change and it’s about this time that they start separating the unsalted peanuts in the shells that I toss out with the bird seed, black sunflowers seeds and raisins and instead of eating them, they bury them. Do they ever find these treasures I wonder? Or are they simply depriving themselves of a tasty breakfast right now? I have no idea, but I see they’re busy doing their squirreling away for the winter, so I’ll toss a few extra out every day from now on. The Hummingbirds are still here, which I’m happy about, but I know it won’t be long before their seasonal instincts kick in and they start their long, long trip south. Seems they just got here.

Currently 55 with an average wind from the East of 9 mph, Dew Point 53, Humidity 92%, Barometer 30.16 & falling, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 7:31 am, Sunset 7:35 pm. Mostly cloudy with a slight chance of rain showers. High 72. ESE winds 10 – 15 mph.

Overcast tonight with a 60% chance of rain. Low 63. SSE winds 10 – 15 mph.

Chilly enough to have the heat on first thing this morning. It will warm up enough this afternoon so that won’t be necessary, but darned if I’m letting my place go below 70 degrees. I HATE being cold worse than just about anything and with most of our days now hovering in the 60s and the nights dropping into the 40s or 50s. I suspect that heat will be on now until Spring. I’m already wondering where that blessed warmth went of our very hot summer. And wishing for some of it back.

Currently 60 with an average SE wind of 3 mph. Feels like 60. Dew Point 50, Humidity 68%, Barometer 30.20 & falling, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:30 am, Sunset 7:37 pm. Sunny today with a high near 70. ESE winds 5 -10 mph.

Clear overnight skies. Low 49. E winds 5 – 10 mph.

Hate to admit it, but I did break down and turn on my heat this morning. 44 degrees outside, 68 inside…too cold for me to be able to get up and hop in the shower. Thank goodness I have the thermostat app on my IPhone so all I have to do is reach over and turn on my heat, A/C, adjust temperatures, etc. without ever having to step a toe outside the covers. I love that!

Off to breakfast this morning I found fog over the river. Didn’t seem to be any anywhere else but over the water. Lucky I had to stop for a traffic signal long enough to snap a photo.

I suspect the leaves will be ramping up their decision to change colors soon. The cooler nights usually signal time to round up the rakes and have them on the ready before to long. I know so many people love this season…they come alive in the Autumn. Me? I have to fight depression each and every single year when Fall rolls around. I know it’s only because of the season that follows right behind it. And yeah, I get some stunning pictures in the Fall but still…and as soon as the first snow falls, I’m okay. It’s as if something inside just snaps out of it and says, “Oh well, winter’s here. Get over it. It won’t last forever and then it will be Spring.” And then I’m find. But getting through Autumn.

Currently 53 with an average NE wind of 10 mph. Feels like 50. Dew Point 40, Humidity 60%, Barometer 30.35 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 7:29 am, Sunset 7:39 pm. Sunny with a high of 64. e winds 10 -15 mph.

Clear overnight skies. Low 43. Light and variable winds.

Wow – what a difference. Windows closed, long sleeves on, it’s definitely September weather now. One good thing, the strong wind and dropping temperatures seemed to do a number on the massive mosquito problem we’ve had to contend with the past few weeks. That’s for sure a good thing. But I find it rather sad that our summer temperatures have vanished. The warmth was stubborn and hung in longer than usual. However, as is the way of things, it eventually had to exit the stage while a new season became the star.  I’m much a warm weather person, but then…I don’t have any say in it. Here comes cooler weather, like it or not.

Currently 75 with a SW wind of 17 mph. Feels like 75. Dew Point 68, Humidity 79%, Barometer 29.72 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 7:28 am, Sunset 7:41 pm. Windy! W winds of 20 -30 mph with gusts to 40 mph. Mostly cloudy today with a high of 75.

Mostly cloudy becoming partly cloudy after midnight. Much cooler – 44 as a low. NNW winds 15 – 25 mph decreasing to 5 = 10 mph.

A substantial both hands on the wheel wind is going to blow in today, bringing much cooler temperatures. Dropping down to 44 tonight, which is most certainly put that comforter back on the bed weather. This is a strong cold front swooping in today and I’m fairly certain we’ve seen the last of the 80 degree temps. We’ll be happy to see 70s.
