Besides the weather in Fall, the cool nights and bright blue skies during the day and of course the leaves. It's the festivals and pumpkins and apples leading up to Halloween that makes it great. Get out to every festival you can find and get those pies and vegetables. It's a short season so don't put it of.

FALL APPROACHES FROM HAMPTON NH
It seems like it was just a few weeks ago we were worried about Hampton Beach being able to open for Memorial day due to the string of storms that took their tool on the beaches. Now we are just a couple of days away from fall. Fall foliage season is only a couple of weeks away. This week we still see summer weather so we better get out and enjoy it. Let's hope the rain over last weekend and the rain we are expecting today will give a boost to the trees in order for a spectacular foliage season.
Here is the weather for today:
Today, a chance of showers and thunderstorms this morning, then occasional showers and thunderstorms this afternoon. Highs in the mid 70s. south winds 10 to 20 mph.
Tonight, partly cloudy. A chance of showers in the evening. Lows in the lower 50s. West winds 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 30 percent.
