My house faces almost exactly Northeast and the front of the house is getting blasted by the rain tonight. Haven't heard that sound since last ski season and what a sweet sound it is!

Gee, killjoy, thanks for taking the wind out of my sail... ;)

All I'm saying is, this storm is a lot better than the summer-like weather we had last week.

Oh I totally agree. I was cold today and loved it. I'm just saying...better to have reasonable expectations than to be let down. I think we all remember last winter's start. Freezing october followed by shorts weather from november to jan.

You actually said it was a weather pattern change, not just that the weather is better ;) The killjoy was right, as much of a downer as reality is, this is only a temporary blast of cold coming down from the northern parts. We'll have to hold out a while longer for the real deal.

Think I can take the window air conditioner out now?
Nah... we usually leave ours in until the end of October. Just in case. ;)

I wish it was a permanent change in the season already but probably it is not. And as much as I want the snow here, I'm not eager for the heating bills either. It will come, in due time... :snow:

It is. It's finally fall.
I tend to agree...the long-range forecasts are finally showing temps near average for this time of the year.

People with gardens must like this, though...still don't see any real threat of a frost. :-?

Only temporary. Ullr doesn't have the stones to hit us with 6 months of prolonged cold and snow. But seriously it is cold and rainy as a bugger out there right now. Finally feels like some seasonal weather.

It's certainly cold and fall like here today, but it's supposed to be back in the 70's again later this week.. :roll:
