    UPDATE: Weather report [Bring a jacket! (WNC Fall Picnic)]

    UPDATE: We did not get down as low as expected. Temp here at home at 8:00 AM was 52 degrees and they are still predicting a high of only 63. Temps during most of the picnic should be around 60. We can also expect moderate breezes of around 13 mph. See you all there!
