The trees shedding this way aren't normal in any way. It's a growth, maturing and shedding loop that shouldn't happen.

I rather like the way it looks, though it is not natural, I'm sure.

It is pretty but worrisome because of the implications. Stressed trees lose their leaves early. This seems a bit early to me as the weather has been warm. The problem is that there isn't any real stress that I can tell. It hasn't been particularly dry or particularly hot. I guess it could be related to the blizzard we had in July but if that were the case, I think they would have lost their leaves to stress earlier.

I'm also concerned because the usual quantities of shedding suggest that we could have a harsh winter in store for us and perhaps a very early one.

Do you believe that it-- has implications, then? I thought it was merely a curse, but I do not know much of trees, I must admit.

The snow tends to be rather bad.

Other than that, not exactly. Sometimes we'll get days of the wrong season during the current one.

There is usually snow?

Like the storm that raged for two days this summer? Such things happen more frequently, then?

That would be rather more welcome, I believe.
