Fall happened in one day in Seattle, this year.

Last Thursday it was 80 degrees F, with an Air Quality Index of 200 (or "harmful to most people") due to wildfires across the state.

Friday it was raining and 55 degrees with an AQI of 10.

The rain has continued on and off ever since, and the temps haven't gotten above 60 degrees F, and all forecasts show that we are now fully into Fall and heading into Winter. The trees are suddenly all changing colors very quickly, and leaves and falling everywhere.

It's like fall landed with a big wet thump, all at once.

And I love it. I love this time of year...
