Leaves in my Southern California come in only 3 shades - green, burnt yellow, and brown.

Yes, we do have leaves that change in color. But they only come in 3 shades - green, burnt yellow, and brown.

Southern California is not like most places. We don't have snow. The only place that has snow is at our local mountains. So if you want snow, take a drive up to the mountains and you shall have snow.

So how do many Southern California residents mark the changing of the seasons in a place that only comes in two temperatures, hot and cooler? By the marine fog that rolls in from the beautiful Pacific Ocean. If you are out here visiting during the fall, remember, there's no need for a thermometer here in Southern California.

The weather has been so beautiful that we have had a few light showers but it is clear fall has really arrived in Southern California. It is a welcome relief from the heat of summer, if you ask me! This is my favorite time of year, with the changing leaves and chill to the mornings, it's a great way to move into the season! What's your favorite season here in Southern California?
