Reading through all the comments about the weather, I don't feel quite so disturbed. However, here in South Central Kentucky, I have already picked up leaves twice. thank goodness, I have a riding mower with a leaf catching attachment. These 20+ trees in the yard put down quite a few leaves. And we had 3.5 inches more rain than normal in August.
We can be thankful for one thing, our President has a VETO pen.

Your representative owes you, not his industry only, but his judgment; and he betrays instead of serving you if he sacrifices it to your opinion.

yep there falling here too, I only rake leaves once, at the end of the season just before the first snow, that way with a little luck and a bit of wind I don't even need to do that.

I was helping the wife clean out the garden and never realized how dry it was until I started pulling up stuff.After all the rain we had and still be that dry.
Also we went to the grandsons soccer game last night and dam near froze to death,it was about 40 with a good wind.My wife reminded me to go to the car and get our blankets to cover our legs.Her good idea for the day.
For what it is worth,it is not a normal year
Re: There's Always The Weather
Global Warming is upon us.
This is just the false hope, prelude !
From what I read, all members are reporting an early Autumn but, no report from <sniff>Texas.
Cool and gray off the central O.C. coast.
Mission fig dropping leaves without sweetening the fruit. Fuji apples ripe but, tart. Blueberries, lots of blue - no sweetness or berry flesh.

It must be the ozone

That is because of all of that oil burning and getting all over the Gulf of Mexico.Global Warming is upon us.

NO NO NO Tell me its not so,
I really hope man figures it out before we all become extinct. This is not a problem for earth, extinction is the rule not the exception. Earth will once again do what she does best, heal and rebuild bigger and better then the last batch. Time does not matter to earth, if it takes 50 or 100 million years not a problem, whats a 100 million years when your 5 1/2 billion years old?
I am rooting for the ANTS

I am in favor of the uncles. --FLO--
Condensing fact from the vapor of nuance.
Hooray for the uncles, boo for the Antz. California's heat wave has temporarily left as it has been in the 70's here. Keep up the good work Mother Nature.

Re: There's Always The Weather
Oops! Sober up. Of course, Eunuch ism is conducive to extinction... am I preaching to the choir again?
Really ancient history lesson...
Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction, about 65 million years ago.
End Triassic extinction, roughly 199 million to 214 million years ago
Permian-Triassic extinction, about 251 million years ago.
Late Devonian extinction, about 364 million years ago.
Ordovician-Silurian extinction, about 439 million years ago.
Pending CURRENT EVENTS... News Flash!
Sixth Extinction...
There is little doubt left in the minds of professional biologists that Earth is currently faced with a mounting loss of species that threatens to rival the five great mass extinctions of the geological past. As long ago as 1993, Harvard biologist E.O. Wilson estimated that Earth is currently losing something on the order of 30,000 species per year — which breaks down to the even more daunting statistic of some three species per hour. Some biologists have begun to feel that this biodiversity crisis — this “Sixth Extinction” — is even more severe, and more imminent, than Wilson had supposed.
Corollary
About 30,000 species go extinct annually.
Mass extinction comes every 62 million years, UC physicists discover
The Last one was 65 MILLION years ago.
We are slightly over due.
With surprising and mysterious regularity, life on Earth has flourished and vanished in cycles of mass extinction every 62 million years, say two UC Berkeley scientists who discovered the pattern after a painstaking computer study of fossil records going back for more than 500 million years.
Their findings are certain to generate a renewed burst of speculation among scientists who study the history and evolution of life. Each period of abundant life and each mass extinction has itself covered at least a few million years -- and the trend of biodiversity has been rising steadily ever since the last mass extinction, when dinosaurs and millions of other life forms went extinct about 65 million years ago.
As a species mankind must get ready to die?

Re: There's Always The Weather
That heat never really made it to the central O.C. coast.
Today feels like the first day of Summer.
The outside thermometer reads, 78.
The inner spaces are under a heat alert.
Ain't that so, MacTheW.
I think River is in the middle of a lake from what I've read of Western Wisconsin.

There is always, the weather.
The flooding is south of me but it did rain for two days straight which has left everything in several inches of water, mud, and a lot of soggy.
It is supposed to be in the mid to high 70s this weekend which will dry things out a bit.

Re: There's Always The Weather
Beyond the Autumnal Equinox, we of Southern Coastal California, aka Paradise, have witnessed record breaking HEAT, even the hottest days of the year.
I trust as the heat moves East those soggy regions, Eastward, will experience a dynamite mushroom season.
