2020 - How's The Weather By You?

Had furnace running the past week or so. Couldn't take it any more, so started a wood fire last night. Hate being cold, living room was 78° last night, bedroom too. Comfy finally!

Heating with wood/coal spoils you; I'm never comfortable with furnace and only use it in the spring and fall when it's still fairly mild outside.

Was 39° this morning, 38° about a week ago. It was 21° in Saranac Lake this morning in upper NYS.
 

We are having a major drought. So far in September, there's been under 1 inch of rain. From Jan to Aug, there has been less than aveage rain for 5 of those months. Reporting station at Albany, NY - closest "official" weather station to my locale.

Mother Nature is showing her mood swings.
Tuesday was a great, +28, and bright sunny day.
Wednesday, yesterday, +10, showers most of the day.......COLD.

I know there's a scientific reason for big differences in temps.
18 degrees between two days, makes dress codes hard to keep up with.
Keep several different coats by the door......never know what you need.
But....
On the good side, no snow.......yet.
 
It looks like summer will be over starting Monday!!

I'm ditto on that @moviequeen1 Outside every minute possible, this time of year, operating on borrowed time with Mother Nature.
When the great outdoors calls my name.....i'm on my way.....could be the littlest of tasks......but i'm out there.
 
I went out at 5am this morning (Sunday) and couldn't believe how warm it was for this time of year and so early in the day. Near 70F (21C). Quite a change from last weekend when we had frost warnings for several nights in a row. Going to change later in the week to more "seasonable" temps after a cold front passes. We need rain desperately.
 
Yesterday was cold,windy gusts up to 40mph,rain on/off ,a thunderstorm in afternoon then another one by dinner time.They didn't last long high was 62
Today,sun/clouds not as windy with a chance of rain this afternoon temps near 60
