Yes, our leaves are changing rapidly, the Sumac is gorgeous. We have had two days of solid cold rain, (Had to climb the ladder to get the leaves out of the gutter), had rain in the basement. Us Minnesotans say "Thank God, this could have been snow." 1" of rain equals 12" of snow. Our son and daughter had 5" of rain yesterday. We had about three. Think about shoveling that!!!!! But, hey, it's a'comin'!!!!!! We have to mow up the leaves every day now because they are starting to fall - hence Fall, I guess.

But we still have Indian Summer to look forward to. That is when you have everything in the yard battened down, chairs packed away, tables put away, everything is ready for the winter and lo and behold 80*, bright warm sun. It is wonderful. It is generally after a freeze and thee is one last blast and then the hard freeze. Lasts a few days and then we know we have to batten ourselves down. Sometimes we don't get it until November, hunting season. Edie

It is HERE. I have got my sweaters out and the central heating is on in the evenings. Brrrrrrrrrr

Having lived in Cincinnati don't blink, because I know that is how fast the weather can change. It's still in the 90's here but it feels good after all the 100's

I am about 50 miles north and I was wondering the same thing altho' the weatherman says cool down for the weekend.

Here in Tennessee we are still in 90's for today

It's here in NE Washington. We even had to turn on a space heater last night as it did get a wee chilly. Leaves are changing colors, big groups of Canadian geese are busy working out that flight pattern, the giant "V", then they go looking for fields to nibble in. Yep, fall is here.

Yes, cooler days, and definitely cooler nights. Leaves are changing color.

Not here in SC either, we still are getting 90 degrees weather. Tired of it.

We went from 90's to 60's so I guess fall is here. cjomomma! I live in Minnesota and I don't want snow yet. It comes in Nov. and doesn't leave until April. I get so sick and tired of my winter coat I could just #@*&%!

Well in southern Minnesota it is cool today in the 50's. But yesterday we had anywhere from 4 to 9 inches of rain in the area. We are having major flooding in towns around the area. Some towns they can't leave or get into unless you are in a boat. Alot of the roads are closed because of water over the roads, part of a old bridge has just broken up so (one of two ways to get into the town). It's really a mess and they are saying we can get more rain tomorrow.

We still have about 6 weeks before fall arrives in the Phoenix area. While we have enjoyed some nice mornings (70's) this week, another hot spell of 106 is forecasted for this weekend. I can hardly wait for our fall.....about the time the goblins come!

I had to check on the computer this AM for a neighbor whose wife works in Iowa and is coming home and they said 35 and 52 are shut down. It's been many a year since we have had anything like this! So she will be taking back roads back to the cities! How bout those winds??? Could whisk you away and never be seen again!!!!!

Our gas and electric company, Xcel Energy (it used to be Northern States Power) had a commercial for wintertime. I loved it. It was from Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" (theme song from "Apocalypse Now" and it was "Welcome to Winter - In Minne-Sota. Here is your fuel bill - ha ha ha haaaaa!"

So I hope the water recedes there pretty fast. I heard on the news last night that the water is coming up out of the ground because of the saturation and the water table. We had puddles all over in our yard - Wouldn't go down! Thank God we only had a little water in the basement. Cleaning gutters again today though! Edie

Well it's spring here! Part of the State I live is still coping with major flooding from winter rains but right here, right now, the sun is shining, the birch trees in my backyard are budding green and the cherry blossoms are in flower.

I'm looking foward to some sun on my face.

It's pledsant here in NYC. I am taking the air conditioners out until summer. I have labor available tomorrow.That means a heat wave next month!

Actually it is the Fall Equinox, the point where the daylight and dark hours of the day are equal. <G>
Now they call it the first day of fall, actually it is the middle of the astronomical autumn.
The equinoxes and solstices divide the year into 4 segments that traditional were the midpoints of the seasons. The points when the relative position of the sun 'changes' and can be seen with even primitive key stones like StoneHenge and so on.

So the "start" is just an easy way to say the equinox is here. <G>

Pati, in Phx

We have three paper birch in our front yard and they are turning gold now, but with the winds, there aren't many leaves left. I envy you now, but when we get our spring, you can envy us!!!!! Actually, I love the four seasons and they come at just the right time. buddings for Easter, snow for Christmas, bloody hot for the 4th of July and perfect for the little goblins on Hallowe'en and cold for Thanksgiving. Ain't it grand!!!! (I don't say ain't. My mom says there ain't no such word as ain't! And she's 94 and knows!!!!!!! Enjoy your Spring. Edie

We've had our first frost! I would be quite happy with 90* weather for a few days!

Collect those leaves & coat them with glitter. Photo here somewhere! Who has time for housework?

No indeed, it may say fall on calendar, but that's it, still in upper 90's here! I want to change my name, can I do that and how?

Not yet but it is coming.

Yes, it's here in MN. Woke to 43 this morning. Rained all day yesterday and chilly and quite windy today. The sun finally peaked out this afternoon around 4. It's dark by 7:30 pm, tho. Leaves are changing, especially on the maples.

Nope! No fall here yet. We have had 55 days of 90+ heat. I am so ready for cooler weather!

have yet to have summer leaves have turned and already had a trace of snow

Leaves are turning, but still in the 80's. However we are suppose to see some cooler weather next week. Can't believe Sept. is coming to an end just a few days. This year went so fast. I only remember turning the calendar pages to the next month.

It's 91 here today. I wish GA would invite fall to come for a visit. I am ready for cool weather. I've had headaches almost every day since June due to the heat.

Could someone send their sun and warmth over here, please? Warmish sunny days with a chill edge on the breeze but could enough to wear mittens at night!

Finally a day without AC however I now have fans in the windows.

That is really rubbing it in..... have got my winter sweater on and am still cold!

Let's try halfies. You take some of the hot and I'll take some of your cold. :lol:

Sounds good to me...... :)

Its here, and I am not ready for it. God bless.

Mr. weather man says that Utah will have a few more weeeks of nice weather. I'll take it!

Here in western Wash. we had a strange day where it was very warm & humid first thing this morn. We rarely get humidity here. Even in the rain. Felt very odd for here. It's usually foggy over the lake & very crisp & cool with maples turning all colors. They're just starting to think about turning now. Then we may drop temps for a few days. We just don't know how to dress these days.

i live in dennison kinda south east of you and is it cool enough for you now i love this weather now. love fall weather
