IDEAL RADIATIONAL COOLING CONDITIONS.
MESOETA LOOKS GOOD ON MORNING SURFACE TEMPS NEARLY 15 DEGREES COOLER

SOUTHERN ZONES. WILL UPDATE AND BOLDLY GO FOR NEAR RECORD LOWS

It has been absolutely gorgeous here for about a week now! I love the changing of the seasons! I am not really a fan of snow, and I wish I could go somewhere warm for the winter (after Christmas, that is!), but I wouldn't give up the changeover to fall for anything! The leaves on the trees here are beginning to look a little yellow, which may also be due to the fact that we are in a drought(!), but it is definitely enough to get me pumped for fall!
The temp here is currently 81°F with no heat index, and there isn't a cloud in the sky!

It's early fall here in northern VA
Yeah we only topped out in the low 70s today and yesterday!!!
Let me tell you something: There is a real difference between a dewpoint of 80 degrees and one of 52 degrees!!! We have been enjoying all this scrumptious, cool dry air that you can actually breathe!!! It's nice not to be breathing socks for once!!! It cooled down to 51 degrees last night! We're shooting for 47 tonight!!! I will actually need my blanket tonight!!!
Bring Fall ON!!!!!
And then bring on that SNOW!!!!!
Who needs plows? I'll shovel all the snow with my construction-grade, square-edged digging shovel!!!! Plows use up too much gasoline!! I enjoy shoveling the snow and I never get tired.

You should come up here and shovel my driveway! Actually, I'm not going to shovel this year, I'm hiring a plow...unless Jeb wants to come up
