meet me on the equinox

yesterday the high was in the mid-80's and it was humid.  today the high is in the 70's somewhere, though it's cooler at the moment.  tomorrow it's going to be--according to the current reports--around 90.

yep: it's the start of fall, all right.

10:29 this evening CDT: the autumnal equinox.

The science of the thing is this:
