What a crazy fall it's been. It kind of feels like the last half of September and first half of October were taken away and replaced with November. High winds, cold temperatures, snow and copious amounts of rain have replaced what is often one of the nicest times of the year. However, even with the dreary weather we've had a beautiful fall. The leaf colors were really nice this year. And right now all the rivers are running at levels comparable to spring runoff.
The Pigeon River, for example, has risen 4 feet in the last 5 days. The high water means there's a lot of mist and at night it's been dipping below freezing so that mist is creating ice on a lot of the vegetation surrounding High Falls. We often see this happening in November and December but I've never seen it happen this early before. It sure is pretty!
