It’s the last day of September and finally the Northern California weather is giving us some relief. I took my kids swimming after school last Tuesday when it was 100 degrees and the following night was awakened by some of the loudest thunder I’d heard in my lifetime. I am hoping the moderate high 70s to low 80s lasts because last year we had a record-breaking October with 8 full days of upper 90s to 104 degrees. You didn’t misread that.
