Winter comes on quick here.

I thought 60F was chilly this morning :p

Here we are in what I refer to second Spring after a nasty heat wave that puts all the plants to sleep for a couple of weeks. For at least another month we should be into mid 50's low 60's at night. Day temperatures will be mid 70's to low 80's and the tropicals will remain outdoors.

Still summer. We'll get a little break from the heat with the hurricane, but after that, right back into the 90s. It'll be over in 2-3 months.

Damn is right.
But other than the cold it's a great place to be.
30 steps and I'm in the woods.
1/2 mile to the river.
Got to take the good with the not so good.
And really I love winter.
I pretty much have to.

Still summer here as well, but the nights here for August have been cooler than usual.
We may have an early fall/winter coming this year

The hurricane. I'm waiting for a call to go there fr restoration work.
Hopefully it won't be so bad they need to call the guys to come from here. That means it's severe.
Hang in there and try to stay safe.

I'm from Michigan originally and after a 7 year stint in California I've been in Cleveland since '99. We've come to the realization that we DON'T love the winters anymore. We're going to be moving to the Wilmington, NC area. The house goes on the market early spring. There's going to be a lot to miss in this area of the country, but I can honestly say that winter won't be one of them.

I've lived here for my whole life. I don't know what life would be without our great winters.

Still warm into the mid 80s for another month yet, but down to 68 at night now. Winter comes.
