On the eastern seaboard in the U.S. about 100 miles inland, it’s been the least amount of summer rain I can remember. The limited amount we get now are scattered 5-10 minute storms with heavy winds that disappear as fast as they show up. And Autumn came suddenly last week with no transition.

The biggest thing I’ve noticed and have been noticing for the past few years is that the sun feels more powerful. The temperature difference between being in the sun and being in the shade seems to have greatly increased.
