SEPTEMBER

Astronomy
The full moon this month (on the 23rd) is known as the Harvest Moon. 
Shine on, shine on Harvest Moon, up in the sky...

Weather for September
Based on the 12 Days of Christmas: Snow! More snow! And cold, and high winds!  September is going to be rough, weatherwise.
Based on the first 12 days of January:  Bright sunshine and very cold.
Based on the Ember Days: Cool

As September, so the coming March.

Fair on September 1st means fair for the month.  We are forecast to have hot weather - all the hot days which didn't show up in August are in the first week of September.

No rain on Holy Cross (September 14), no rain for six weeks

If on September 19th there is a storm from the south, a mild winter may be expected.  If on September 19th there is a storm from the south, it is liable to be a hurricane, and a pretty strong one at that!

September 20, 21, and 22 rule the weather for October, November, and December.

'Matthew's Day bright and clear, brings good wine in the next year.'  C'mon, Matt!  Good weather and good wine!
