It’s very pleasant outside now in the mid teens and overcast. The forecast for the next few days is  for the same and the long weekend is being called for as sunny. Summer is on its way out once again and people will be looking forward to the handle of another winter in their age. September and October can be glorious around here. With Irene dissipated on the east coast we can hope for a year of relief from catastrophic weather damage we hope .Remember the season for hurricanes goes well into November .
