Lilac blooms are coming out now. One benefit of this cool weather (other than less mosquitoes ) is that anything blooming will last a lot longer. It’s a cool 5° now. High only 13° (normal high is 21°). Generally cloudy and windy. NNW 25-50. Low 6°. Similar story tomorrow.

Apple blooms. In about 4 months, these will become delicious apples 🍎 for the fall harvest. It’s quite “fall like” these days. The high only hits 14° today with a few showers by pm. A cool east wind 15-30 will add to the chill. Low 8°. Showery/cool weather persists Thurs/Fri.
