Am I cheating by having waited so long to make a prediction, Sunflower??
We have had a very slow slide out of winter, very slow warming through spring, a very warm sunny summer that lingered, a very consistently cool fall. Right now, there is a light frost every morning and the first frost was almost 4 weeks ago! Except for a few days when it did not freeze, it hasn't been colder than 28°f.
All this means is that there is likely to be a rather dramatic change like the nasty dust storm we had in mid-September

. That ended our hot summer and
highs dropped 30° immediately!
If this "sameness" continues much longer. We will be into a time for snowstorms! I am enjoying the sunny afternoons right now but beginning to hope for some rain. I will have to begin watering the lawn again today! So for here, I guess I'm predicting Winter Drama!!
