Fall in Huron County is looking warmer and drier than normal, according to Environment Canada.
Senior Climatologist David Phillips tells Country 104.9 News the Autumn outlook follows a summer that was cooler previous warm seasons, with more days of rain.
For the fall, Phillips says not to expect as much rain.
“My sense is, what we are going to see in the Fall, is generally certainly in September and October, to be milder, warmer than you normally would expect, and drier,” Phillips says.
As for when to expect a killing frost, it is looking later in the season.
“Last year… the real first killing frost didn’t come perhaps until the middle of November,” Phillips says.
Moderate temperatures are expected to persist through September and October, something Phillips says could relieve pressure on household bills.
“It’s really the free energy time,” Phillips says.
“Don’t have to have the heat on. You don’t have to have to air conditioning on. Just open your windows. Often the air is fresh and healthy and invigorating. It doesn’t look like we have any smoke coming our way.”
