Autumn’s here – it’s turned chilly

The weather had to eventually turn cooler. After above average temperatures throughout July and August and a mild start to September, it was a bit of a shock to the system when a bit of chilly weather arrived this week. The breeze moved into a cold northerly to make it feel even cooler.
