Summer ends on Sunday, September 23rd, 2007 with the Autumn Equinox.  The temperature has been very pleasant over the past week or two, and while it will warm up a bit over the next few days as some clouds roll in at night, keeping nighttime cooling to a minimum, it still isn’t even what most would consider warm.  We’ve definitely seen the last of the 90’s, and before long the 80’s will be over with too.

If you’re so inclined, the myth about being able to balance an egg on an equinox isn’t so far fetched.   Something fun to try this Sunday at noon!

Rain chances come back into the picture around the first of the next week, so enjoy the clear skies for your weekend.

While this blog has typically been filled with bad weather news (storms, drought, extreme temperatures, etc.), I’ve got good news to report in this post.  For the past several days (and it seems for the next few days to come), we’ve had absoultely beautiful weather here in the Shoals!  The temps haven’t really gone much over the low 90’s, a gentle breeze is in the air keeping things nice and comfortable, and the rain we had lately has made a dent (albeit small) in the drought.

The great weather is just in time for our 3-day Labor Day weekend as well!  There’s not any excuse not to have a great time outdoors today.  Enjoy!
