As I am writing this it is 7:15 in the morning here in Arizona's Central Highlands and the temperature is 53 degrees Fahrenheit.
As of around mid-day the Autumnal Equinox will arrive and officially will be the beginning of our Fall Season.
As usual, though, someone forgot to tell the Weather Gods.
The mercury here is forecast to top out in the 80's today and for the upcoming several days.
Nevertheless the nights will be cool enough to open the house once again, eventually the leaves will begin changing colors and then falling to the ground and, hopefully for our long drought-stricken area, snow will occasionally drop from the sky.
For those of you who love autumn, it's time for your Happy Dance.
Other than longer shadows, not signs of fall down here.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely getting fallish here--red leaves and cooler nights. The highs are in the high 60s-low 70s. Perfect! Hoping you get your snow eventually. After our rainstorm last weekend, Mt.Rainier is looking a bit more "dressed."
ReplyDeleteTrees are turning here.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely happy dancing. Fall is my favorite season, and equinox is my favorite day! Yes!
ReplyDeleteAutumn on the California central coast is very much like summer elsewhere. September October and early November can be amongst the most beautiful days of the year. As one travels over the Santa Lucia mountains to the east autumn is very much present with the changing of the leaves including the multicolored changes of the grape leaves.
ReplyDeleteTom says it well. Summer. We always have summer. I would love to see fall color.
ReplyDeleteIt is rainy & gloomy here so not a great start to fall.
ReplyDeleteHurray for autumn and cool nights!

ReplyDeleteThe first picture looks exactly like the scene from "Miller's Crossing", minus the guy in an overcoat. It's supposed to be 87 here tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI love all the seasons...for about two weeks, then I long for the next one.
