In only 2 days we can start humming autumn songs like 'The Autumn Leaves'. But what will the leaves look like after this summer drought? I passed a favourite sumac stand along the South Service Road in St. Catharines and they are curling brown. They aren't likely to turn to glorious red, gold and yellow. It seems that while many trees' leaves stayed green during the drought, they are going brown and crispy now even though we're getting enough rain.
How about this headline on the Almanac site to join a live show of the season 'turning':
Fall begins this Thursday September 22 with the autumnal equinox! Join us for a live show as we welcome in the new seasons – and learn all about the movement of the Sun. Get details.
There are still lots of flowers in the gardens - here's a pretty sunflower bud.
