After a few days of high 80's and low 90's in PA in October....it is now fall!

Today we are gloomy....but do need the rain so I don't hear too much complaining. The high is in the 50's right now.

It just didn't seem right before when the leaves and turning and falling and we were sweating like crazy.

Is it fall-like at everyone elses homes?

It's been in the low to mid nineties here for days and days, and we've had several record breaking highs lately... but it finally cooled down here today, too. It was about 50 when I took the kids to school, and is supposed to be milder today. The trees haven't really even started turning yet, which is bizarre. My petunias are still growing like crazy, even though we, too need rain desperately... we're in full-out drought status. One of my close neighbors' (actually, they're also my best friend's parents) well has gone dry- which even though they had expected it, and it's an old shallow well.... it makes me exceedingly nervous! :unsure:

I have to agree, the leaves here are not all turning either. There are a lot of green trees yet and it does look weird.

I know we broke a few records this week.

NH has finally found fall for the most part we are a little behind but is chilly drizzly and the leaves are turning I am in central NH so the north is probably in full fall mood now :( I love and dislike fall all at the same time.

I have the love hate relationship as well with fall.

I love how pretty it is, I love the Halloween events, the cool nights when you get that nice breeze through the window

I hate knowing winter is coming, that I have to bundle up to leave my house, it's harder to get out of bed when it is dark and cold, sandals have to be put away, and you never know how long the cold will last in PA...will spring come in April or will it still snow in May :)

I love the apple fests, trips to the pumpkin patch and harvest season....I love Thanksgiving!!!! My favorite holiday.

I hate how Nov, Dec, and Jan are big holiday months but then there are no holidays until the Memorial Day weekend, I hate that it gets dark at 5...I barely get home after work and it feels like 10 at night.

I guess this all sums it up....:)

It's Fall -- I know because the radiators came on this evening. Last week it was something like 87 degrees F., tonight it's more like 47.

Our leaves are usually fully red and orange by now up here, but it is very late this year. And we, too, have had a wonderfully warm September and October (high 70's). But it's comin'...... :(

I only wish that our leaves on the trees here in Texas turned like they do up North. Our leaves turn from green to maybe red and then brown. Not the gorgous colors that ya'll have. It has been in the mid 90's to low 80's here I am still wareing my shorts. my daughter did have to ware a jacket on morning last week but it did get warm quickly. We are getting rain right now, but that is only because Mother Nature is upset about the Dallas Cowboys loss :angry: Those stupid cowgirls

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.
