The official beginning of Fall is/was Tuesday, September 22nd. I'm not sure I have ever seen quite the confirmation on the end of one season and the beginning of the next as I saw on that date. The weather had been, up to that day, sunny, mild, mostly dry - a coolish summery trend, enjoyed for most of the Summer. Tuesday passed without incident but, almost immediately the newsweathermen began to forecast rain and cooler temps. And, the rains and cooler temps started to move in (sort of a surprise given the forecasters' history/track record).
Not to claim too personal a foul, my end of season league golf outing was played in it's entirety in a light misty drizzle with a few patches of harder rain thrown in. in case you were wondering, no, I didn't play well at all, struggling with tee shots most of the day, reaffirming my belief
that to play well you must play regularly (it had been a couple of weeks since my last time on the course).
Friday's weather was okay with some showers. The various forecasts for Saturday changed as often as there was a chance to change it. as a very side note, I played a round of golf this morning (having chosen to believe the "sunny in the morning" forecast versus the possible rain in the morning forecast). You can guess what kind of visible humidity/low flying clouds we played in.
As I look out the backdoor window, at 4:15 pm, there is a continuing light drizzle with interruptions of harder rain. I think Fall has arrived.
Personally, I like the changing of the seasons, always have. It's a little sad that my golf work for the year is slowing down, but, my running work is now ramping up. Enjoy the Fall and have a good one. KipK
