I'm convinced our weather people keep lying to us just to keep our hopes up. It's always next weekend rain, or it'll be in the 80's, or a cold front will blow through. Nope.

:mmph:
If everyone else was as wrong on a regular basis as often as weather people, none of us would be able to keep our jobs longer than a week. But they're granted a lot of leeway simply because meteorology isn't an exact science yet. :mmph:

I work in finance and a running joke is that the only people who make weather people look good at predicting are economists.

These trees are in a nearby park and have changed early. Most trees in the local area are similar to the background trees in this photo.

The trees here are still green. They'll finally turn sometime next month & drop all in the span of a week. :p

Well, it's 98 brutal degrees here in NY today, and we're supposedly getting more of the same tomorrow. This type of weather always gets me thinking about(and longing for) FALL! I love the fall for so many reasons: The foliage (obviously), the first chilly nights and crisp mornings. Being able to wear my "good"(read: wool/ gab) clothes! Getting home from work at 5:30 and it's already dark. New fall TV shows. Halloween! Oh I can go on forever!
Anyone else feel the same way?

Autumn? It's been crazy in the 90's here in southern California (it's October, f'cryin'outloud). It's short sleeves all week long, and then it's still miserable hot and sticky. I used to live in Lake Tahoe (last millennium) and we had seasons then...
