Know it all too well, as a near-50-year resident of the area.

I remember some mid-September "open the windows" fronts coming through in the late 70s/early 80s.

Now it's to the point a couple years ago where we didn't get one until the first week of November.

I remember when it was a big deal about 15 years ago that LeGarrette Blount was leaping over defenders going low to tackle him, now I see it once a drive in any game I turn to
