Howdy,
Yikes ..... summer just didn't seem long enough. Last evening temp got down
to 3.8C and the Canada geese are on the move. We've had a REALLY damp summer
so maybe the fall colors will give us some extra eye candy.

Spring is in the air, and the weather has been so erratic over the last few
days. It's as if it can't make up it's mind to be summer-like or
winter-like.
Yesterday and today are winter like. Wed last week was scorchingly hot.

For some reason, when I read this I immediately thought about how one
year all my classmate's voices suddenly couldn't make up their minds
whether they were boys or men. I *really* hope I'm not te only person
who thought this... o_O

I'm in the other side of the world (southern hemisphere), and I have
experienced strange weather.
Last year, in snowed in the middle of winter (for a single day). The
previous snow here was 50 years ago.
This year... It wasn't as cold as it should be, but just a week ago it felt
like winter had just STARTED (it should be ENDING in a few days).

You get extra fall colors from lots of sugar (glucose, really) in the
leaves just as they die for the winter. You get lots of glucose in the
leaves from lots of sunlight.
If it's not sunny when the leaves start their annual change, they won't
be too colorful.

John

It snowed in Johannesburg last year. First time since 1981
