Finallly that hot bit passed by - 20 and clear. :clap:

A beautiful sunrise this morning. Currently, it is sunny and 15C. A grand morning here in St.John's.

Only 5° this morning on the way to a high of just 13° with more rain. this is getting tiresome, not to mention waterlogged.

Well 8 right now up to a big 13, has been raining all night, light drizzle at last look...

Well 8 right now up to a big 13, has been raining all night, light drizzle at last look...

Ditto a bit further west.:ptptptptp

Edit: High has been revised down to 10°C and even that meager goal is looking iffy.

16C with partly sunny skies at just past 1PM. Feels like Fall is here in St.John's.

Looking very nice for our Adirondacks tour - bit of showers tomorrow but mostly sun - then very pretty weekend coming :clap:

15 and clearing.

10° with showers again and with a high of only 13°, not much to look forward to today.

14C and cloudy, but it is a quiet Fall day here in St.John's.

8C here and rain is in the air... up to a big 12 so they say... on and off rain I am guessing... right now it is off, but it was on earlier.,,

Will it ever stop raining? Looks bad for our Saturday to Wednesday campout in Battleford:

8C here and rain is in the air... up to a big 12 so they say... on and off rain I am guessing... right now it is off, but it was on earlier.,,

As YB so elegantly put it: Looks like Déjá vous all over again!

10C with rivers of water running down the streets.

Spring weather has returned for an encore.

15C with a light rain, which we actually need, this afternoon.

Good news is the rain seems to have hit much of BC as well so hopefully the fires and fire-hazards have been reduced.

That is good news, eMacMan. I am glad that the hazardous situation has calmed somewhat.

10˚C and raining in Red Deer, Alberta.

Guess we should be grateful that the rain is not coming up from the Gulf of Mexico as it would probably be laced with oil and the ethylene glycol BP has been using to try to hide the oil.beejacon

An interesting idea, eMacMan. Raining here in St.John's, but it is from the southeast, so it is off of the Atlantic Ocean.

14C and the rain is subsiding. Should be foggy comes tomorrow morning. We shall see.

12C going to 8 , but a bit warmer tomorrow... 17 or so..

10° with continuing steady rain. Crap. :ptptptptp

8° with a high of only 14° and MORE RAIN.

17C with a light rain falling. We actually needed a bit of rain, and the heavy rain fell overnight. My rain barrel is now full.

8C and partly cloudy... no rain... yet none forecast

Despite an abysmal forecast some blue skies and sunshine this AM. Did dip to about 3°C just before sunrise so the below average temps continue unabated.

Up to 10 now and the sun is looking pretty happy... good for the crops here, hoping they can dry out!! Fast!!

19C and the rain has stopped. The sun is trying to shine, but I don't think that we shall see it today. Still, it is a nice day overall.

10° and overcast with light rain.

19C and the rain has again stopped, after coming down in buckets. Now, even the sun is starting to shine a bit. A fine evening is brewing.

Goodness, the sun broke through and we jumped to 14°. Wow!

Still 19C and very still this evening here in St.John's. None of the forecasted thunderstorms hit us this afternoon, just lots of rain.

Whoops, down to 13° now. :D

Goodness, the sun broke through and we jumped to 14°. Wow!

Ditto here except we briefly hit 16°C. Another 3 or 4 days and I wonder if I would have remembered what that bright light was.:D

18C but too much cloud cover for any star gazing tonight. Such is Life.

Yeah eMacMan, I too had forgotten. Off to Battleford in the morning.

8° and only 13° here today, but no rain in the forecast will make it nice none the less.

Beautiful morning here in St.John's with sunshine and 18C temps. Spent most of the early morning taking our dogs for walks and now it is time to hang out some sheets on the clothes line.

Well 9C now and on the way to 16, not raining and looks like a lovely fall day on the way...

Sun, cloud and wind. A good transition day from Construction Season to Almost Winter.

14C with a light breeze as we approach midnight here in St.John's. We shall see what the morning brings. Paix, mes amis.

8C and going down to 4 cant get the widgie to predict tomorrow... it's either busted or bad... :)

3° here in Battleford this morning with a high of 15° today.

3 right now with an expected high of 19 later... rain tomorrow!

12C with the sun trying to shine this morning.

5° with a high of 14° and showers as we pack up to leave for home this morning.

13C with a bit of sun. A quiet day here in St.John's.

This image from a nearby road cam captures it nicely.

All in all another crappy day.

16078

We've reached our high for the day of 12° with sunny periods. That's 6° below average for this time of year.

A cloudy 13C this evening as we prepare to BBQ. No wind or rain helps on this Fall day.

5° on the way to only 12° with showers today. Boy do the farmers need a few weeks of warm weather to get their crops off.

14C with some rain this morning. Other than that, it is a quiet day here in St.John's.

We've now dropped a degree and sit at only 4°.

15C with a misty rain falling. Everything is a lush green still.

For nearly a week the Weather Barons have been promising that today would be sunny and warmish. The promise remains. Reality is 6°C and mist. As Marc says; We shall see.

After today we seem to be looking at cool and wet with double digits just a fond memory.

Sadly, a poor harvest setting, but the Farmer's Almanac predicts a warm fall and they are usually much more accurate than EC.

True, Sinc. The Canadian Farmers' Almanac predicted cooler and wetter weather for the prairies in August and into September. They were also right on the mark for NL in these two months.

16C and mild here today in St.John's.

Not as advertised :( only 15 and clouding over

Not as advertised :( only 15 and clouding over

My neighbor is revving up his Harley as we speak, MacDoc. Come on over and ride with him.

17C and the skies are getting brighter now that the drizzle has stopped.

We shall see this winter what sort of snow falls upon us.

Will any major Canadian city match or better our record snowfall of 648.4 cm from the winter of 2000-01???????????

CBC News Interactive: Snow records (http://www.cbc.ca/news/interactives/map-snow-records/)

Only 8° at the noon hour and wet and cold. I doubt we will make our high of 12°.

18C with some blue skies and even a bit of sunshine. Might be a good BBQ evening. We shall see.

15C temps with a clear sky and a beautiful quarter moon in the night sky.

We did not meet our high of 12°, still only 11°.

Big booming thunder and a bit of lightening woke us all up at about 5AM here in St.John's. Now, it is sunny and 15C at just past 9AM. A beautiful morning.

Only 1° this morning as we edge ever closer to a killing frost. And a high of only 7°, 11 degrees lower than normal for this time of year.

Beautiful sunshine and 18C, with some balmy breezes to make this a glorious day.

Yesterday the sun did come out and we did for a brief moment reach 20°C. Then the rain came, the temp plummeted and we are back to the crap that has been with us for most of the summer.

The Weather Barons now calling cool and wet for the forecastable future. Tuesday is the closest sunshine carrot and even that now has some rain thrown in.

Sunny, 22C with nice breezes out of the southwest. It is a balmy afternoon here in St.John's.

Still a cold and wet 2°. A fine end to the coldest summer on record in a hundred years.

Supposed to be 7 and rain, but it is 10 and no rain... so far!

Still a cold and wet 2°. A fine end to the coldest summer on record in a hundred years.


We had the coolest June on record, and the warmest July and August on record. Strange weather here in Canada. At just past 3PM it is 26C with the humidex.

The sun has broken through the gloom and we've jumped way up to 3° over the noon hour.

The Farmers' Almanac predicted that we would be affected by tropical conditions (i.e., a hurricane), and we are since such disturbances usually bring us warm, humid and windy conditions, just like now. 20C with no humidex reading and a nice warm breeze.

Wow, we're up to 4° now with a very cold wind.

Crystal clear skies and a beautiful quarter moon under 15C temps. A grand evening.

raining, slow and steady, 6:30 and 7 and the rain is just being persistent... a downpour is better, at least it is over fast, this drizzle goes on and on....

Ditto a bit further west except we are already down to 4°C. May see some snow tomorrow or even later tonight.

According to MD it's more of the AGW fallout. Wish it would fall on TO, we're tired of it!

:eek:Has started to snow. Leaves have just started to turn so hope it does not get too thick as the trees have just started to recover from the Sept. 11, 2005 early season blizzard.:eek:

a nippy 10 but clearing skies and lovely mid 20s weather coming up

A beautiful sunrise this morning. Now, it is sunny and 15C. A fine day is in store for us here in St.John's.

"A nippy 10°?"

How's a nippy -7° here this morning with a high of 9° and sunny today?

Sinc, are the leaves on the trees starting to turn colors yet in this chill?

Half of the leaves had turned colour a couple of weeks back Dr. G. This will turn the balance now.

I love Fall as a season, but here in St.John's it comes gradually. By mid-Nov. most of the leaves will have changed colors and fallen from the trees.

17C and mostly sunny. Will have to go out and mow the lawn once again.

An even 0°C with snow on the leaves. Will head out shortly to knock snow from some of the branches.

Sorry to hear of this, eMacMan. I shall think kindly of you as I mow the lawn this afternoon. My body would be in shock if I saw snow in Sept. or Oct.

Thankfully the wind has risen from the dead and cleared the branches. Temp has risen to a glorious 2°C so the roads and sidewalks are also clear. However should I decide to attempt to escape this dreary weather I shall have to sweep the windshield.:D

Bright sunshine has melted the frost off the windshields and roof tops as we climbed to 3° in the past couple of hours.

Showers, rain and 2C right now, we didn't get any snow, but friends in calgary reported it was there this morning...

The leaves are beginning to turn and the first is the mountain ash... it is very pretty, sadly we do not get the visual splendor of fall out here in the west that is common back east, and that I do miss... so anything with real colour is a treat to these eyes... !

Sunny and 19C, with a nice ocean breeze. A grand afternoon here in St.John's.

5° over the noon hour with bright sunshine and a very cool breeze.

15C at just past midnight. We had a sprinkle of rain while I was inside at a concert, but the skies are clearing and the stars are now coming out. A beautiful night.

Well damp and on and off rain all day and evening, overcast and chilly with a touch of the 'fog feeling' coming on, going down to 1C tonight, and my furnace has been on this evening, enough to take the chill out of the air...
4C right now.. 10 pm or so...

-2° on the way to a sunny 12° today.

A balmy 17C right now, but the morning sunshine has been replaced with possible rain clouds. Still, it is warm this morning, and I have inside work to do around the house.

We are now exactly 18° colder than that Dr. G. ;)

:eek::eek::eek:

Have been stuck at 2°C for the past 12 hours. Yesterday brought us a magnificent high of 4°C.

Guesses have been waffling as to when we will see double digits again. Yesterday it was Monday, Today it is tomorrow. Tomorrow next month? Next year?

Where exactly are you located, eMacMan?

Where exactly are you located, eMacMan?

SW corner of AB. The only Canadian community to ever elect a communist mayor.

Was not as big of a coup for the party as you might think as the local council pretty much ignored all of the party directives. Today, I am sad to say, they seem quite willing to take their marching orders from a couple of local promoters, rather than the voters.

We're firmly entrenched at -1° so far today.

The drizzle has stopped and the sun is coming out, but our temps have dipped to 14C. Fells like a real Fall day.

Currently raining here in RRC after having been overcast all day. Temps struggled to pass 13C and are now starting to drop (12C) as the evening draws in. Outside it's dark. 20:30

14C here as we are 3 1/2 hours behind you here in St.John's, NL.

14C here as we are 3 1/2 hours behind you here in St.John's, NL.Hi Marc. Forecast for tomorrow is par for the norm; rain, rain and more rain, I'm afraid, with a high of 16 :(

Sun popped thru for a couple of hours and we jumped to 11°.

Hi Marc. Forecast for tomorrow is par for the norm; rain, rain and more rain, I'm afraid, with a high of 16 :(

Forecast for tomorrow here in St.John's is for sunshine and 16C temps. A good day to work out in the garden.

Sun popped thru for a couple of hours and we jumped to 11°.

Very dark outside at 10PM and our temps have dropped dramatically to 12C.

And the blahs continue. A big cheery fire earlier this afternoon and our famous homemade pizza for dinner really helped chase the blues.:D What is really required now is a massive dose of honest to goodness (non-liquid) sunshine.:)

I wish you well, eMacMan. We are getting rain overnight and then some sunshine during the day. Currently, 12C right now as we approach midnight, but it is going down to a chilly 7C overnight. Tomorrow should be 16C and sunny, which is fine with me. Paix, mon ami.

A beautiful sunrise this morning. It is now nearly 8AM with lots of sunshine and blue skies, and temps at 9C. A grand Sunday is in store for us here in St.John's. Hope it travels eastwards to touich all of you our there in ehMacLand.

5C here this morning, and cloudy, rain in the forecast. and I am sure you were hoping for the beautiful sun to head out here to us in the west Dr G... ;)
I sure hope it can make it's reappearance too... really soon!!
It has not been seen in it's usual splendor for far too many weeks!! (months actually!)

It seems you are getting our weather and we are getting BC's weather... strange turn of events this year.... :confused:

0° here this morning and with a forecast high of 5° not much room for improvement.

Sunny and 16C as we approach noon. This might be our high for the day, but the sun has some warmth to it still so it shall be a great afternoon to work out in the garden.

Lucky you!! I am wrapped into a sweater, and finally turned on the fireplace to remove the 'chill'

it is beginning to drizzle....

happy gardening mon ami... you are sure having a super summer / fall will be pretty also... and nice!!

supposed to go up to 14 and some sun later!!

Drizzled to a frizzled..,:eek:

Clear skies and 12C as we approach midnight here in St.John's. A nice moon is out and all is still.

I drove from the west coast to Golden today.

It's raining in BC today.

sunshine, sunshine, hoooooot.......

Currently, it is cloudy and 14C this morning, but we are in for it overnight.

A "Tropical Storm Warning" is in effect for us here in St.John's, compliments of Igor, with rainfall amounts between 50 and 150 millimetres expected by Tuesday evening, brought in by winds up to 100km/h. This should be fun. We shall see.

3° and it has been raining all night and looks like it will continue all day with the RH at 100% and a high of only 5° today.

15C as we approach noon, and the winds are starting to pick up a bit. A forewarning of what is to come tonight and all day tomorrow. By this time on Wednesday, we may have received up to five inches of rain. We shall see.

Eyes say thinner clouds than I've seen in a week. Forecast says more rain and even some snow.:eek:

Forecast high of 16°C has been dropped to 12°. As it is currently 9°C perhaps we shall see double digits today. That in itself would be a pleasant change.

Thanks to the very late start to summer and the unheard of wet September looks like Alberta's farmers are really hooped this year.

Only good news for Southern Alberta is if we get through tomorrow without a killer frost, then several days of sunshine are forecast. Though we have seen this sort of promises drowned by reality earlier these past three months.

5C right now and supposed to go to 14 but with rain and snow later today.... so' they' say.... I think eMacman is right, the farmers will sustain great losses this year... terrible to see all that beautiful grain left on the ground ....

Take a peek at this just a few hours west of us now:

Yuk! I take it that is wet snow, Sinc. Way too early for that sort of weather. We are still in for up to five inches of rain in a 30 hour period. Let's see .......... an inch of rain would be a foot of snow .......... five inches of rain would be ................. Yikes.

Take a peek at this just a few hours west of us now:

:eek: this is painful to see this early in the year... how did you get this shot Don? Special program?? Very interesting.... :)

No Leslie, it is available to anyone. I just used the AMA web cams and took a screen shot:

AMA Road Reports - Highway Cameras (http://www.ama.ab.ca/road_report/camera/camera_station_main.htm)

Here is one you might recognize:

Environment Canada has now informed us that we might get up to 200mm of rain (aka 8 inches) brought onshore by winds gusting at 120km/h starting tonight and into Wed. morning. We shall see. :(

Pouring rain outside right now, albeit with 15C temps it is not cold rain. Still, we have already had two inches of rain fall so far .............. and the heaviest rain is not due until morning. Schools are closed, insurance companies are sending out emergency emails to their clients re flood prevention, the police have been making dire warnings ................. and Igor has not even hit us yet full force. This is like White Juan, only wetter, warmer ............. and with advance warning.

My neighbor is getting ready to lauch his boat .............. from his driveway!!!!

Gee Mark it isn't sounding too good, we have had a steady on / off drizzel for a few days, but nothing to warrant out boats coming out... better get the waders handy just in case, and move all in the basement to higher ground... (forgot, you have done that already!) ;)

Cloudy and damp, 5C and more rain and showers tonight and tomorrow... :ptptptptp

Yep, raining here too. Still. Again. Ongoing. Pick a word. It's been going on for months.

Yep, raining here too. Still. Again. Ongoing. Pick a word. It's been going on for months.

And here as well, could even snow tonight.:eek:

0° this morning on the way to only 9° with the odd sunny period.

Currently 17C as we face a hurrican watch here in St.John's. We had over two inches of rain overnight, with another four inches forecasted for today, brought in by 130+km/h winds. Luckily, most schools are closed.

Listening to a CBC Interview with Environment Canada's hurricane forecaster in Halifax. He said that St.John's can now expect gusts of wind of a Category 2 Hurricane. Pouring rain right now ........... :(

Some parts of NL have received 240mm of rain in the past 10 hours ........... with the bulk of the rain and wind yet to hit.

Sure not sounding too healthy down your way Marc, I hope there aren't any big trees close to your house... not too much you can do but batten down the hatches and ride it out, I hear Cornerbrook are getting a good lot of it...

We are dark and overcast and raining with showers later...:confused: big high today of 4C
it is 1 right now...

Yes, big mature trees all around the house, the power and phone lines. Some water is seeping into my basement, since I am surrounded by a couple of inches of water ............ but this is nothing compared to other parts of NL that have water up over the guard rails on the highway, and people rowing away of their homes for safer and higher ground.

Went outside for about three minutes to check around my house and I am drenched in warm rain. 16C with 70km/w winds. Kids are out playing in the puddles and ponds forming in Churchill Park.

Environment Canada now predicts gusts up to 140km/h to hit St.John's in the next few hours. We are now under a hurricane watch.

Environment Canada now predicts gusts up to 140km/h to hit St.John's in the next few hours. We are now under a hurricane watch.

Had a look at the weather channel and it is looking pretty grim out there, the wind is coming in clockwise from the south (if memory serves me) but will change direction later this afternoon... it looks devastating to the east with some places already with 120mm of rain, and the highways flooded out in many areas... I hope you have a sub-pump in the basement though it would be working on overtime right now if it could help at all...
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you on the Rock, in hoes it will not claim any lives or homes... I would be concerned about the power lines too ... hope the doxies have found safe refuge ... under your bed most likely, the wind ( sound) really hurts their ears if it is whistling... stay safe Marc and Deborah, hope you don't lose power...
Guess you will have to find those extra sweaters and candles just in case...

I won't be complaining about the 'drizzle' anytime soon!
Take care...

Hope you weather this one too Marc.

Out here early snows in Glacier National Park have closed the "Going To The Sun" road for the season. Compared to that, our inch of snow looks rather paltry.

Still today will be the fifth straight day I have had a fire going. Normal for the entire month of September should be zero.

:yikes:

So gorgeous out - soft air - 24 degrees - riding in my mesh - left the Shed and head North on Winston Churchill, came over the rise.......ooooooops.......now if that is big enough to see continuous lighting all the way south of Orangeville - I don't want to be anywhere near it - especially at night.


too good to be true riding night.....quite the show coming....

scampered home -

Nice tailwind so the tunes were great, took it easy - city look great coming down the escarpment....big full moon. Glad I got out for a few hours.

Eyewitness from Balmy Beach.....

power out from 8-ish till at least midnight
satellite internet was out for about 1.5 hours - probably more to come
satellite tv was out for about an hour

i feel like i live in a 3rd world country

-3° with heavy frost this morning on the way to a high of 14° and sunny today.

Summer is over, long gone, kaput...really never was. The sun has finally emerged. Currently about 5°C with a sizzling high of 11°C predicted. Fall colours are maybe 2 or 3 days from their peak if the winds don't get too severe.

With luck this is the beginning of a glorious Indian Summer.:) Otherwise a week of good weather then back in the tank.

Been seeing news reports of lots of power outages in NL and Labrador. Hope that is the only reason we have not heard anything from Marc over the past 24 hours.

Up to 4° in bright sun here now on the way to 14°, but a very cold light breeze.

I hope so too, eMacMan, the aftermath is looking pretty darn severe ... might not hear for a few days... :(
As for us, 13 is the expected high, but 7 right now, talked to a friend in Edmonton and she said there was frost this morning and it was cold , but sunny there right now... she wore her winter coat to work this morning..... :yikes:

Guess we will not be far behind, hoping for a nice indian summer...

17 and a Super harvest moon in the sky - rare sight.

http://media.thestar.topscms.com/images/29/78/dad680444ee2b0fdd80a79c12aaf.jpeg

NASA says much of the Northern Hemisphere had the chance to view a “super harvest moon” as the sun set to the west and the moon rose in the east. The two sources of light mixed, resulting in what NASA described as a “360-degree, summer-autumn twilight glow” that hasn’t been seen in nearly 20 years.

‘Rarely does autumn begin with such celestial fanfare.”

NASA says a super harvest moon appears “strangely inflated.”

The “super harvest moon” receives its name from a time before electric lighting was used, and farmers depended largely on bright moonlight to extend the workday to gather their crops.

Too cloudy here to see this, I love the harvest moon... it is so stunning...
Thanks for sharing!

It is still incredibly bright and one of the planets is hanging off to the left. Live shot shortly - coffee first. A crisp 11 - Hope to leave for the finger Lakes shortly. Riding weather looks excellent.

Roof of my van turned into a lake - I'm afraid the light gathering on my little Panasonic leaves much to be desired...still - it did okay

3° on the way to a pleasant 15° in the sun today.

Heading to 19 today and 28 :yikes: tomorrow - even hotter 31 in Watkin's Glen where I hope to be based for the weekend.
Quite the fall weather.....recipe for nasty T-storms.

sitting at -3 right now... heading for 16 C later... sun is out, finally... and nice to see!

Bottomed at -4°C. Coldest night so far this month. Judging by the windshields and roofs this was a killer frost. Thankfully the leaves have started to turn so we should not have black leaves hanging from the trees all winter.

18 and cottage country getting beat on again.

You just knew that 6 consecutive days of sunshine had to be a bald faced lie. Today should have been the second. Instead we got cool, windy and cloudy. Topped out at 10°C.

Will Indian Summer follow the path of summer? Late to arrive and early to depart!

holding at 17 - hmmmm and the nasty to the north has drifted away.
maybe redo my aborted ride.

'Twas a bright sunny, windy day it is 12 right now.. not too cold... rather nice around here, so I thought!

16 at 4 am - woken by a phone call from a client I think was accidental - nice and out and heading to hot....guess Iride to the Forks for early latte and munchie. Too nice a day late in Sept to waste. heading to 28

2° here at 4:00 a.m. while up to work on the website. A sunny high of 17° and 23° tomorrow will make for a great final camping weekend.

A beautiful sunrise this morning. It is now very sunny and 10C here in St.John's as we continue to clean up after Hurricane Igor, which hit us with a category 2 strength.

26 and mugly at 10.30 am.

did I say it's only 10.30 am.....:(

Sunny and 15C at nearly 1PM.

Sunny and 14C at 2PM and light winds. Three days ago it was a bit warmer ............... and much windier.

30 and windy as all heck - feels like 40+

I'm outa here....

Tough riding tho

Beat the rain to the Shed - single line of showers rolling by. Over soon. Still 29 and muggy.

17 C right now, no wind and bright and sunny... the sky is BLUE!! who knew??

A beautiful sunset is forming and 13C this evening.

5° here in beautiful Elk Island National Park, flooded with brilliant moonlight and bright stars that makes the forest seem surreal. A high of 23° today makes me wish we could stay tonight too, but alas, it is not to be. We must leave this place of peace for the last time this season and go home to winterize the motor home.

Back to a seasonal 15 - blowing like crazy - set a bunch of records yesterday. warmish to say the least.

A quiet morning with 8C temps. A typical Fall day here in St.John's. Typical anything is better than what we experienced this past week.

clean air, sun decent temp at 15 but blustery

12C right now on the way to 24C... could it be summer trying to make up for not being here earlier?
fairly warm for 7:30 am!!

After a very warm 27° yesterday, we still sit at 13° this morning on the way to only 19 today with rain.

Sunny skies and 12C. A beautiful Fall day. My neighbor's maple tree has about a dozen or so leaves which are starting to turn yellow and orange ............... a sure sign that Fall is upon us here in St.John's.

Most of our leaves are yellow and half or more are already on the ground.

Most of our leaves are yellow and half or more are already on the ground.

We start to rake leaves around Halloween.

The end of a fine afternoon here in St.John's, spent working in the garden (which I love to do) and cleaning off the windows of our house (which I hate to do).

The sun appeared and we popped up to 17°, supposed to be 25° tomorrow. Go figure.

right now it is 19C and almost 6pm we were all the way up to 24 today... according to my outdoor thermometer which is in the shade of a tree at all times! Amazing!

Last couple of days have been glorious. Lows in the double digits which only happened 4 times over the entire summer. Lots of wind today but the leaves managed to hang on which is great, cause they are right at their peak.

6° this morning and on the way to a sunny high of 24°, well above average for this time of year.

Beautiful blue skies and sunshine, with 16C temps. A grand Fall day to spend outside in the garden ........... which I did. Now, back to work. :(

A fine fall day at 13° on the way to a sunny 24° today.

Take a look at the before and after pics. Amazing what damage Nature can bring about to one peaceful spot.

CBC Newfoundland and Labrador | Blogs | Ryan Snoddon (http://www.cbc.ca/nl/blogs/ryansnoddon/2010/09/southerly-flow-sets-up.html)

So today was absolutely glorious. Fall colours here in SW AB are absolutely phenomenal this year. What's more perhaps because of the cool wet summer they have managed to hang in despite some fairly ferocious winds.

Today we drove the Kananaskis Highway from Longview to Highway 1 and back again. Nearly 40 Kms of fall colours before we even started up the pass. Aspen, cottonwood, willow and everything else all turned at the same time. High elevations and low all turned at the same time. At Highwood Pass even the larch were glowing. Make this drive in one direction or the other almost every year. Cannot remember any previous year that came anywhere close to this one. :clap::clap::clap:

A beautiful sunrise again this morning. A few leaves are starting to turn color, but mostly it is green and growing and lush.

Overcast, damp and 11° on the way to a high of only 18° with rain today.

Beautiful sunshine and 15C. Going to go and BBQ some hot dogs for my lunch ........... and then mow the lawn.

Currently sitting at 20C and a high of 25 expected... I think it will be warmer than that... :)
Bright blue skies and mild breezes playing with the leaves on the trees!
Beautiful fall day!!
Enjoy your BBQ Dr G you have certainly earned it... the storm didn't affect the tomato plants?? Even better...

Just drove in to Edmonton and it is literally pouring rain for the whole 8 km run this morning.

We hit 17C in sunshine this afternoon, but now it is 15C as the clouds roll in. Might get some rain this evening. We shall see.

A beautiful sunset this evening. A pleasant evening forming with 14C temps and a chance of some light overnight rain. We shall see.

13C right now, down to 6 tonight, and expecting 20 tomorrow... looks like a lovely week ahead, it has been grand so far... wee sprinkle of rain tonight, but not more than 10 min worth...

14° here now and a high of 19° tomorrow in the sun. Yes!

Got sucker punched today.
Constant rain for 36 hours...then the sun busted out early afternoon....18 degrees - glorious.
headed north to the Shed - coffee and some colours....
not a chance :( 15 and raining when I got there - rain and fog all afternoon.....what a tease that little warm and sunny break was. 13 now
Gonna try again for a autumn leaves run tomorrow. Supposed to be nice. :rolleyes:

There was such a rotation on that rain that I wonder if it was Igor winding down ad dumping it's last load of water.....so warm in the break.... ?

Guess not
Hurricane Igor, 2010 / Stormpulse / Hurricanes, severe weather, tracking, mapping (http://www.stormpulse.com/hurricane-igor-2010)
It's off into the North Atlantic.
Must have just been a southern front with a load of rain.

18C this morning and it feels like it is going to rain. We shall see.

8° on the way to a seasonal 16° in the sunshine today.

20C as the sun is burning off the morning fog. Balmy breezes are upon us now making this a fine day.

Sitting at 2C and on to 20 this afternoon... hmmmm nice!

20C still at just past 1PM, but a balmy fog is surrounding us here in St.John's. No bother, since I love fog.

6° in bright sunshine, a nice change from all that rain yesterday.

A record-setting 22C this afternoon here in St.John's ................ with an unbelievable humidex reading of 27C. Amazing. We might not experience these sorts of temps again until late June.

Still 19C at 9PM. An amazing day, weather-wise, re the record high temps.

A lovely evening at 16°, 19° tomorrow and in the 20s for the weekend.

Fabulous day almost no wind. Leaves still hanging in there!

Drop dead gorgeous - got 400k of lovely S Ontario roads today by mcycle and more coming tomorrow :D
some colour here - got to 20C and heading to 21 tomorrow.

Fall Colours - get out there - gonna be gorgeous tomorrow as well - post upi yours (http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforum/showthread.php?128627-Fall-Colours-get-out-there-gonna-be-gorgeous-tomorrow-as-well-post-upi-yours)

Great colors, MacDoc. Only one tree in my area has started to have a dozen or so leaves change colors. So, any picture I might post would just be green.

17C and foggy this morning.

6° on the way to a sunny 17° today.

18C as the fog is slowly lifting. Might experience some sunshine and 20C temps if this continues. We shall see.

Cloudy, but a balmy 18C this morning here in St.John's. None of the leaves are turning color yet due to all the warm weather we are experiencing.

Clear and nippy at 3° this morning, but a sunny high of 19° will help farmers get their crops off today. When it stays dry and above freezing, they can run 24 hours a day to finish the harvest.

Warm temps here in St.John's, with 23C temps and a 27C humidex reading. This breaks a nearly 40 year old record for the warmest temps on Oct. 1st.

70mm of rain yesterday. What a day. :eek:

Chance of showers and 16 today. Looking forward to clearer weather starting tomorrow... as long as there's no precipitation I don't care what the temperature is...

It is now 24C with a humidex reading of 30C. Have to go looking for the fan for tonight. Luckily, there is a nice balmy breeze, so I am able to open up all the windows to let air flow throughout the house. As well, the sun has come out ................ now that I have come inside from working out in the garden for the past couple of hours.

We've climbed up to 10°, about half way to our high for the day.

With 24C temps and a 32C humidex reading, nothing is changing colors yet here in St.John's. I have plants that are starting to bloom once again, so my garden has colors on display. Today is warmer than any day in June.

Blue skies, sunshine and fall colours. All is well with the world at least in SW AB.:)

Sadly it seems that the reason for our cold, wet, non-existent summer was a very early return of La Ninå. Given the brutal winter in the southern hemisphere, with little sis arriving a year early we can probably expect the same here.

The sun is behind some clouds and the wind has shifted directions. Now, we are at 22C and no humidex readings. A grand day.

21C at 7PM. Feels more like early July than early Oct. as the humidex hit 32C for nearly an hour this afternoon. Sears put away their early-bird snowblowers for a last-chance air conditioner sale.

Dropped 10° in an hour. Brrr it is really cool out there now.

6° this morning under clear skies and a sunny and warm day at 24°.

20C already this morning. Once the fog burns off, and the sun appears, it shall go even higher. A grand weekend is in store for us here in St.John's.

A sunny 22C with a 28C humidex reading. However, with winds out of the south west, it is a fine summer's day to be outside......... and it is only 11AM. I am out on my back deck with my MBP, wifi and a cup of coffee.

According to Environment Canada, St.John's, at nearly 23C, is the warmest spot in Canada. Something must be wrong with their monitors ............ or with our climate. We shall see.

Something wrong as we are at a wonderful 27 here, and it is just on 3pm... warmest time for us to be sure... and bright and sunny!!

22C still here in St.John's as we approach 7PM. A grand evening.

Still 16° at this hour. Nice.

14C at just before 7AM and the sun is just starting to rise in a beautiful array of colors.

8° this morning on the way to 19° in the sunshine today.

Very sunny and 15C at 10AM this morning here in St.John's. A grand morning.

A nice morning, with 10C temps and a nice sunrise. The morning fog has burned away, so we shall have a day of sunshine.

A warm morning at 9° with rain and a high of only 14° today, but the rest of the week looks great.

9 right now, overcast, and rain. lightening and thunder in the forecast for the day...

It's official. We have had as many double digit lows this fall as we did all summer. To be precise four.

Cloudy all day yesterday, more of the same today.

Then a string of sunshine carrots.

Sunny and 15C this afternoon. A fine Fall day.

8° this morning on the way to only 13° today.

Beautiful sunshine and a nippy 11C this morning. Another grand Fall day.

8 right now and going to a high of 14C later, showers are predicted...

Sunshine, not a cloud in the sky, and 15C temps. A great Fall day once again here in St.John's.

Cool and cloudy. We have managed to struggle up to almost 10°C but for whatever reason it feels colder. The sunshine carrot has been pushed back yet another day.:rolleyes:

Ah well "Almost Winter" will soon arrive here in Southern Alberta.

The leaves are getting really thin which makes it feel that much colder.

We got the sunshine, but at only 10° with strong winds, it feels much colder.

Still sunny and 15C as we approach 5PM, but it is sad to see the sun so low in the western sky. Another sign of Fall. Such is the cycle of Life.

Sunshine finally broke through which means that we will probably start dipping below zero at night again.

Any ways will dig out the binoculars tonight and see if we can spot the Hartley comet.

11C and clear skies as we approach 9PM. The end of a fine Fall day.

7° here this morning, 9° in the city, with a sunny high of 24° today and the start of a dry warm spell that will really assist farmers get the crops off.
