Greetings and welcome!
The fall season is upon us, and while there isn’t much color change yet, things are going to start changing fast in the next few weeks. Likewise, I haven’t seen an overnight low below 38 yet, and that record will soon fall. The water in Caldron Falls Flowage was getting a bit brisk last week, and the days have gotten a lot shorter too. Fall is here.
One thing that I really like about September is the pleasant weather. Cool nights and days in the upper 60s and low 70s is just fine with me. Too bad it doesn’t last a little longer. Usually late September and early October bring some big storms and unsettled weather.
On the way home today I was thinking that there wasn’t much fall color yet. A few trees have started, and some of the underbrush, but it doesn’t seem like it is very far along yet. You can see that the trees aren’t the deep green of summer anymore, but there are no big splashes of color yet.
This weekend brings the opening of a lot of hunting seasons. Bow deer, turkey, and rabbit open this weekend, and bear hunting already has started. We should have good weather for it, with rain Friday and Friday night, and then a nice weekend once it clears out Saturday morning. The guidance that I saw tonight had it clearing out about 4am.
