Today is the FIRST sub-70 degree day of Fall in Metro Atlanta!
Finally! This Global warming thing is getting old, I wish someone would do something about it.

It's almost Chilly here. I had to put on sweat-pants for the first time this Fall!:bounce:

I'm even thinking about wearing jeans today.:woohoo:

1. Just about the same here in Northern Maine
Fired up the wood stove for the first time this season today. It had been in the 70's during the day and 50's at night. Surprised no frost so far this year.

3. Monday is forecasted to be the first sub-90 degree day here.
In yuma, az. that is very refreshing since the first day it stayed under 100 was a week and a half ago.

this summer wasn't that bad, we only had a couple weeks of humidity. (115 plus humidity really sucks).

8. Yup, I thought is was Hot and Humid here, until I heard a...
...displaced New Orleans evacuee say that she liked Atlanta because it was Cool and Dry (no humidity) here. (Only 61% humidity today)

Ok wait Geo doesn't think that the polar ice caps are melting, he thinks he's liberating the water.

6. LOL, when do we hear about "Operation Polar Water Liberation"
Hey, maybe that would make a good bumper sticker?

The re-branding of Global Warming or "Climate Change" for all the folks in Nebraska who just had 2 feet of Snow in October.

10. I ditched my shorts for jeans yesterday.
It was pretty chilly with the constant rain.

Today in Decatur it's clear blue and very pleasant. I think I'll stick with the jeans.
