Feels like October in Ohio

Posted by Reema Bazzy on Tuesday, October 22, 2013

Between the temperatures and the autumnal light, October is turning out lovely. According to statistics collected by local weather observer Guy Verhoff, for the first 18 days of October high temperatures were 65 degrees (F) or warmer.  Twice during that time the high temp was 79 degrees. It's only been in the last few days that we are shifting away from that.

Fall days have fall nights and those temperature are staying lower.   In fact, October night time lows have been in the 40's for 14 of 21 days.

Donald Traxler captured some of the homecoming parade floats and bands. His photos are available in the photo scrapbook attachment at the bottom of this story.
