Awesome autumn

What more could you ask for? This run of beautiful weather we’re seeing looks to continue for the rest of the week, all the way through the weekend, and at least into early next week. That means more sunshine and temperatures about 5-10 degrees above normal in the mid-to-upper 60s. Any sign of things changing doesn’t come until the middle of next week when some showers might move in on Wednesday.
