What's With this Weather?

I may have to break my resolve to leave the heat off until November 1st! I break it every year anyway, but this year is particuliarly annoying. I remember well into July people were wondering when summer was truly going to arrive. Everyone was saying this better mean we have a nice long autumn with warm weather. Wrong! Here we are in the middle of October and it feels like early December. I am afraid the next time I look out the window little white things will be floating through the air. I know there is some saying about "weather in New England always changing." It certainly seems to be true this year.

I guess I will have to go check The Old Farmer's Almanac to see what we have coming up. Did you know we have a copy at each library? If you are looking for a more authoritative book, Channel 8's Dr. Mel Goldstein, has a new book Dr. Mel's Connecticut Climate Book. I expect Dr. Mel would tell us that this weather is perfectly normal, at least once in every ten or fifteen years!
