Clouds shade sky in scary gray
Winter coming soon

A lovely Haiku, Abbie. We had gray skies for a week. A touch of snow on Wednesday morning. The “measurable” stuff is coming Sunday! Stay warm. ❤

I don’t blame you, Stevie. We had some snow over the weekend. Although it’s not on the streets or sidewalks, there’s a mountain of it on my ramp. Fortunately, it’s supposed to get into the 50’s, so I hope it’ll melt.

Wow, it’s still quite warm here during the day, but cold at night.

We’re supposed to have some warmer temperatures here now that we’ve had a brief foray into winter.

Hi Abbie! Lovely haiku. It’ll be a while before we experience the effects of winter here in Florida. I hope you still have lots of beautiful and mild autumn weather ahead. 🙂
