Ten York should be off the list very soon.

This doesn't look like Toronto at all, it could pass as part of Miami, just throw in some palms.

We’re two weeks from frost and 8-9 from our first snow. Then our 5 months (if we’re lucky) of dark, cold oppresive winter begins

I hope all my tomatoes ripen before the frost comes.. it’s been feeling particulary fall-ish for the past two weeks

Fall seems to have come a couple weeks early here, usually we just start to see leaves change at the end of August, but this year some whole trees are starting to turn. I bet we will get a nice indian summer though, the first half of September will be cold and then 20's well into October.
