Peak Colors of Fall
Greenfield, Virginia
Many of us, me included thought this Fall’s beautiful colors just wouldn’t happen. Not so! Mother nature has a funny way of proving us wrong every time, especially if you are in the weather department! That’s why I tend not to panic about droughts, floods, etc, they are cycles and in the grand scheme of things very short term. Ironically, this year’s colors have been some of the most brilliant in just the past week. This is a maple right outside the office here in Greenfield. What color!
A weak clipper system will affect our weather over the weekend bringing us variably cloudy skies from time to time.
