For
those who watch the weather as closely as I do (it's a sickness), you
would have taken notice of the subtle change in the weather patterns
over the past week or so. The most obvious of these would be the fact
that the nighttime temperatures, which had been running a number of
degrees warmer than normal, are now beginning to come more in line
with seasonal averages. This 'chilling' effect was also reinforced by
a corresponding dip in the highs that have caused the average trend
line (see graphic above) to dip even lower that what we experienced at this
time last year. And, this trend of Mother Nature getting her winter
garb on also looks to be de rigueur for the immediate future as a
series of cold waves from Canada look to be set to invade the
Heartland of our country. (Here's a bit of advice, anyone with stuff
left to harvest from their gardens may want to get right to it)!
Look
for an early frost well before Halloween and maybe, if we're lucky, a
nice autumn display of leaves as they change into glorious color
before falling.
