About 13mm of rain at the beginning of last week, dryer for the remaining. Coldest night/morning was +3°C, and no frost noted yet this fall. Gardens and lawn look pretty lush for this time of fall; will need to cut the grass one more time. Tomatoes are still ripening on the vine. Forest fire hazard rating has moved up a notch to Moderate. Lake level has remained fairly stable over the past week. Recreational lake activity very quiet this past weekend. Fall foliage colours are at about 25-50%. Migrating geese and cranes are heard, and loons were last heard calling on October 1.
