The heatwave in my area and the one on the opposite side of the country has me spooked. It feels like shit is speeding up and within a few years I'm going to look back on 2021 as the good times. :doomer:

    I always remember that as a kid there was a magical time around mid-September to early October when fall would set in and the leaves would change with the weather. You could smell fall in the air. It was always an exciting feeling on that first day of fall feeling when I was walking to my bus stop and you could just sense that it was almost time for Halloween and getting to wear cozy sweaters. Now the weather doesn’t change until mid November and “fall” only lasts for a few weeks before you’re plunged into winter. It’s shocking how quickly this change has happened and how no one else seems to notice it. Fall’s always had a special place in my heart and now it just doesn’t even exist anymore. It’s really quite depressing

      Yes we used to have a pronounced fall and spring in my area too, now it feels like we just go from winter to summer and summer to winter. Spring and summer used to be my favorite. I have good memories of nice spring days coming home from school, opening the windows and playing games on my computer, excited for the summer to come. Now I dread the summer. The temperate 80 degree days with low humidity seem to be vanishing.
