All early indications are tipping towards a good year here too B. Both Lake Superior and Michigan are much warmer than they have been in the last few years and I did a Heikki Luntta dance this past weekend whilst drinking a cold Old Milwaukee (Ok, several) around a campfire.
don't know exactly here,but Geese are flying already and the temps are cool. 4C tonight,risk of frost.Looks like a cooler Sept..and even colder Oct and Nov they claim.It would be nice to have snow on the ground already in Oct instead of Dec..
went boating last weekend at the resevoir, the tops of the divide were completely covered. awesome sight to see that much snow on labor day weekend. have a cold one for me mike.
