2020 - How's The Weather By You?

We've had some really nice weather this month of August, some nice hot days in the start of the month, not much rain.
BUT.
This past week fall is creeping in more and more.....air smells like fall.....leaves turning.....birds are singing a lot less.....some have left for the south......crickets are singing, though.
Playing spin the wheel as to what to wear outside.
Fall jacket in the morning......summer one in the afternoon, unless in the sun, then no jacket.....supper time, back to fall jacket.
Tiring just changing jackets.
Mother Nature is certainly showing signs of a early fall.
 
Woke up to a cool 7 this morning.
The grackles are doing their fall gathering......being their usual pain in the ***.
I guess they don't know about the social distancing rule.
 
Well, the sun comes out and shines really brightly for awhile and then it is overcast. Dark clouds at times but a nice temp. in the upper 70s.
 
Yesterday morning,it felt like a fall day,rain on/off windy,gusts up to 30mph.In the afternoon,winds subsided,sun came out.The high was 80 which I find hard to believe since it didn't feel that warm.
Today's forecast,sunny temps in the mid 70's
 
Rain in the area..

There were reports of tornadoes around here yesterday afternoon. There was some wind and I had to go out this morning and pick up a little twiggage, but I've had a lot worse to deal with with less wind. Rained off-and-on, a few rumbles of thunder, but I guess where I live was spared most of the worst. A lot of reports on the morning news about local storm damage.

Today is sunny, breezy and comfortable. Lows predicted to dip down into the 40sF tonight. Haven't seen that in a while!

It was in the seventies, today....Lovely weather....Our pool is clean and going to get the Pool Guy to come and put the cover on....
We always close up in September....Kids are going back to school, hopefully!!!
Can't wait to go back to our cottage....
 
This recent hurricane made our area extremely humid, the past couple of days. Now, as I type, there is a strong cold front moving through and we are under a thunderstorm watch....may get 2 or 3 inches of rain today and tomorrow. At least, once we get through this storm, the heat and humidity is supposed to go down nicely.
 
A week ago, turned my back for just a minute.......poof......summer was gone.
Much cooler temps.....have had quite a bit of sun.....a few small showers......leaves are showing their colors more and more.....a lot of birds have started their migration......so quiet without their chorus.
Days are shortening up a lot.
My dress code for outside has changed.
No more sundresses outside or anywhere else.
Got out a light winter jacket.......CRAP!!!!!......spinning the wheel as to how warm a jacket to wear everytime i go out.
My well earned vitamin D is wearing off already.
All in all, weather is being the usual fall, hopefully frost will stay away yet, so we can enjoy the fall colors as long as we can.
 
Well, we are having a Labor Day Weekend of wildfire smoke smell and high heat. Then, on Tuesday, we are suppose to be hit with a snow storm. Temps will fall some 60 degrees. Then, a week later, the 14th, we will be back into the mid 80's.

We have lived here before and seen this happen. It like going from Alaska to Hawaii in the same week.

My daughter drained her pool the other day because there's a water shortage in her part of Spain and so she's been using the water from her pool to clean down everything in the kennels.. now she's used it up, she's drained the pool now ready for winter, and put the netting over to stop all the leaves from the trees on her acreage from blowing in
