Max Armstrong talks about fall color. (audio)

This afternoon, two minutes after 3 it’s all over. It’s this afternoon the autumnal equinox arrives. But for many of us, it won’t feel like fall. It will be 82 in Fargo.

Fall color creeping into our region. If monitoring that creeping for your leaf peeping, you’ve got to go north to peek.

The government later today gives us cattle on feed numbers. Analysts believe number of cattle on feed should have been up 3%. Placements likely to be down 3%. Marketings expected to have increased by 6%.

Some are complaining that cabinet secretaries are flying too much at our expense. Betsy DeVos is paying for her own flights. Her husband is heir to Amway fortune.
