I have an N2B parka jacket I bought years ago and I didn't wear it once last year now that I think about it. We'd usually always get a Indian Summer, but it was very brief and only through early September, not all the way into October.
Like I mentioned it doesn't feel right at night time. Climate change is very real.
I remember when it would be chilly by mid-September and the leaves would already be turning
Hell I remember some Octobers where there was already snow flurries on Halloween. We'll see how the rest of the month pans out but so far pretty bad.
Thankfully I was spared this summer here in the north east we only had like 2 real heatwaves I had to turn the ac on and run fans. Probably not going to be the case going forward.
My heart goes out to the arid areas. At least by November we'll dip into the 40s-50s but y'all that sucks.
The only leaves that are changing are the ones dying from drought. 🙃
Yeah, I’m so sick of it being over 100F. My (landlord’s) nonnative outdoor plants got fried this summer.
I'm still having to run my air conditioner at night. The only positive I can think of is at least we're having a period of actually tolerable temperatures after such an unbearable summer before it starts getting cold. But even last year I was having to start to run the heaters by mid-October, guess that's no longer the case moving forward.
Where I live, we've already had a few nights of frost and many of my outside plants have died. I hate autumn
I'm not trying to say anything here other than just disliking the colder climate I happen to live in
