Frost!

Rode through some fog on the way to work this morning, then a couple of miles later noticed some sparkly stuff on the grass. Looked at my computer and it said 31*F, so I guess that was frost! Admittedly it was only about a 200 foot patch, and the comp read 33*F 30 seconds later, but it was there.

Darn, it got cold fast. Mother nature doesn't usually pay that much heed to this "first day of fall" stuff.

No frost up here in da Great White North yet; I expect we'll have a fairly late frost (for the Keweenaw, that is) due to the unusual warmth of the lake. Of course, that same lake temperature means that we'll likely get dumped upon when the snow begins to fall.

As my son was leaving for school this morning, we had to remind him that although it was 40 degrees, that is just 8 degrees above freezing, so he needed to wear a coat!
