Greetings and welcome!
What a crazy strange year for fall colors!! Some areas have almost no color. Other places have some color, and the early maples are really going off. The particularly bright red maples are the star of the show at the moment.
We had a very cold start to the week, and yesterday and today are very nice. The nights have been cold though. We had two nights this week in the upper 20s for low temperatures. That will happen in fall when you have a cold air mass and clear skies. The radiational cooling from no clouds at night really bring those temperatures down.
It looks like we are in for a nice weekend. Tomorrow is forecast to be 67 and sunny, and Sunday 60 and sunny. The overnight lows will be on either side of 40.
There are some events this weekend. The big one is the Wausaukee fall festival.
Here is another one.. a benefit for the Athelstane VFD.
The Camp 5 Haunted House opens tonight.
Next weekend (Oct 8th) there is a Near North Snowmobile & ATV Club brat fry at the Firelane Bar in Athelstane. The bar still isn’t open after their fire, but they will be partying in the parking lot for the club benefit.
Next weekend is also the Crooked Lake Octoberfest.
There are fall colors to be found if you know where there are some maples. The big big show is still coming, and that will change almost daily.
Have a good weekend and thank you for visiting!
