Fair Fall Weather

I do realize that most of the posting headlines have been rather negative; discussing rain, storms, flooding. Do not get me wrong, as much as I love beautiful blue sunny skies, I also live for the severe weather much like my fellow nerdy mets. Hey, that is the only time things really get interesting! Otherwise, the weather could get quite boring...yes, I used 'boring' and 'weather' in the same sentence!


Headlining the weather for the next few days; sun and clouds through much of the weekend. The only exception is a cold front that will approach our area from the Northwest this evening that will allow more clouds to build back up this evening, lasting through Thursday adding the chance for some rain showers through the day Thursday as the front moves over our area. The thick cloud deck will allow temperatures to get as high as the middle 50s, if that. After the front pushes through, we are in the clear my friends.
Friday through the weekend sunny skies and beautiful!
If you look back to the last post when I wrote about the leaves changing their colors, this weather that we will be experiencing is prime weather for the color changing to kick into full gear.
Sunny skies and chilly daytime high temperatures, accompanied by cold evenings are part of the recipe for color changing.


Strong high pressure, with cooler, drier air, will push its way in from the Western states and dominate our weather through the rest of the week. Temperatures will be on the chilly side, but refreshing nevertheless. High temperatures through the general area will be in the lower to middle 60 degree F range. Towards the coastal regions and higher elevations, daytime high temperatures will be flirting with the 40s! Check this: Thursday and Friday evenings, higher elevations, rural areas, and outer suburbs, low temperatures will drop to the 30s!
Yes! The 30s! It is time to bring in the outside plants. They will not be able to survive in the cool evenings ahead.


Stumbled upon this picture thinking that I really would like to be there!


Dress warm the next few days, jump in the car (or go for a bike ride to be more eco-friendly), have a camera handy and snap pictures of the beautiful weather ahead!
