Is Summer ever going to end?

We've had another glorious Saturday here today and I've got a lot done. But I do have to wonder if this summer will ever end. We are supposed to be deep into Autumn, but the temperatures are reminiscent of spring/late summer. My grape vine has had a double harvest this year and both have ripened nicely. My pomengranate tree has had a bumper crop. I suspect it will be too warm for the apricot tree to do anything for yet another year. I'm actually looking forward to the weathering cooling off enough so that we can light a fire. Then I get to spend more days inside and more time on line. Not that I have an ulterior motive............ I suppose those of you on the other side of the world are looking forward to Summer now - has it arrived yet?

Rain arrived this weekend and I'm struggling to get the clothes dry. Temperature has dropped so we finally put the fire on.

We had a wonderful summer in the UK - two days in May. That's probably our lot for the year.

@boiboing We usually have years like that, but not this one. I love the warmth but this year I'm actually ready for some cooler weather.

@enlightenedpsych2 As much as I believe that we have contributed to global warming with all we do to our planet, I do think we have only sped up the natural order of things.

Summer was here for a few days but has now turned into what feels like Autumn! Ah well, I'll let the weather off for now, after all it is still only Spring!

@annaroselock Spring can be very tricky - warm one day and then cold the next. Then it finally settles down.

Over there you are complaining of the never ending summer and here we are complaining about the Spring not wanting to show up properly!

@marlina I know - we've been spoilt this year. Winter will arrive and then never end I'm sure.

We keep getting a few warm days, then it goes chilly again. How lovely to get two crops of grapes

They both matured so it was a tasty bonus. The weather has swung around and today we are expecting thunderstorms. I've actually had a jumper on all morning and not felt the need to take it off.

@thelme55 We have had a few German tourists through the family farm this year and they are all planning to head home for the summer - it better arrive soon.
