This has definitely been a year or record making weather.....
whether we are talking three major hurricanes striking USA, weeks apart ....
Or the mild Fall weather which had trees keeping their leaves longer ....
Or the Blizzard coming into the West / Midwest areas this weekend....

I think those record breakers are going to keep happening. Even secular scientist are saying it's only going to get worse. Hmm...maybe they should read the Bible. We had a freak storm system come through this past week and it tore up the Carolinas and Southern Virginia. While we look mostly see what is happening here in the US, these crazy weather events are happening world wide!
This is the first I've heard about the blizzard. I haven't checked my aviation weather charts in days.

I heard about the storms in the south east. My husband is out in California this week, and they are having record breaking heat.
I hope any snow stays west of us. I would like to enjoy fall for a bit.

The leaves are finely changing, the weather this month has been exactly like September not October.

I made grape jam today from grapes that should have been ready a month ago.

It has snowed twice now and has all melted away. Usually that happens only once and then it stays in October. They say rain and I get snow. We should have had some warm September weather but it would get warm for a day and then get really cold the next. Lots of rain. And wind. We never had a hard frost before we lost the leaves on the trees. We had two light frosts and the leaves just started to turn and the stong winds blew them away. I didn't even have a full week of fall colors this yea. Also, as people were still going on with potatoes in the ground, we got a large dump of snow, the first snow (which surprisingly melted). I am really not sure what is in store as it will be double digits this weekend (Celsius) and who knows what is beyond that as the weather really makes no sense this year. In the month of July, my region got the most water with over 200mm of rain when other parts of the Province of Alberta saw only 1mm or less. My basement flooded for the first time ever (I now have a sump pump in the middle of my laundry room floor) and it is still pumping several times a day for the past 3 months.

That made me smile and immediately reminded me of my grandma making homemade jam. but back on topic, even the World Series set a record this week with the hottest temp at game time at 103 in Los Angeles. I am in south Texas and used to hot weather, but we hardly ever get those high temps in August, much less in late October. (Btw...go Astros)

It has been very balmy here in northeast PA, 50 and 60 degree weather. AND SUNSHINE! After a summer of rain every 2days. I am appreciative of the nice weather as the end of soccer season meant home games and I had to sit outside to watch my goalie son play. Honestly, soccer games should not be 80 minutes long. I love my son. I don't love soccer.

On my way home from work I saw a rainbow. In my 50+ years I've never seen a rainbow in the winter months like this. I live in the midwest where there is much snow and pretty hard blowing winds at the moment. I don't know if it some sort of sign, but I can only think to the 'days of Noah'. God be with you all.

I don't have links, but the southern US has had several tornadoes this evening with several casualties (mainly Alabama and Georgia, I think, maybe South Carolina). Here in central IL we are bracing for near record breaking cold (for March). Southern Illinois is having severe flooding.
Omaha NE got their snowest winter on record (4x their average snowfall in Feb), Minneapolis broke a 1962 record for snowfall, Duluth got three times it's normal snowfall for Feb breaking a 80 year old record, several Wisconsin places beat records set in the 30s and 40s.
