How's the jacket weather, lately?

Texan Scott · Post by **Texan Scott** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 2:55 pm

Well, here it is still hitting, 98f-100f, but I am hoping to live vicariously through those of you who are experiencing milder temps, at least for the meantime?

How's your jacket weather? Getting those new acquisitions broken in? Post 'em if you can.

Bests,

Scott

Typical TN weather this week. Upper 70s, lower 80's during the day, 50's a night.

Typical WA state weather here. Monsoon. I'm sooo sick of rain and little to no summers. The only relief is I can wear my hat and jacket about 95% of the year.

Weather report from New England...still humid as Hanoi round here this week. Rumor has it we'll start getting more seasonable weather this weekend. Can't wait for highs in the 60s!!!!!

I love threads like this that remind me how global our obsession is. Today in London, UK was beautiful for September, bit too warm today for leather jacket of any description. But I fear the rain is around the corner and we'll drop into another cold winter before too long.

We've been having some cool and hazy mornings lately in my part of SoCal, so I get to wear my Todd's on the drive to work.

Unfortunately, it burns off by lunchtime and the jacket ends up on the passenger seat for the drive home.

Highs still in the 80's in Greece. Can't wait to get back to the 60's and 70's in Omaha...

Oh man!

We're toppin' summer weather just into Fall....

...c'mon real Autumn weather!

Make us all feel cooler by postin' 'em up!

Post by **Michaelson** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 5:17 pm

I hate to post it, but I just checked our weather for this weekend, and they're now saying 60's daytime highs, and upper 30's for night time lows Saturday and Sunday.

D'oh!

I figured you guys in the northern regions would get some ideal weather conditions AND quality jacket time! Of course, most everyone is north of us. Quality jacket time! Quality jacket time...

Seems like the warm weather will hold out till next week. Though it stuffs the Cosplayers at Entertainment Media Show at Earls Court.

I don't know, I'm in south-east Washington, and it has been in the 80's and dry as a bone. It's only 70's today, though, and perfectly blue skies. But I guess that's Washington for ya.

lantzn · Post by **lantzn** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 6:44 pm

Yeah over here in the Puget Sound area (Olympia) the past few years have been getting wetter and wetter. I moved up here in 80 from So Cal and the weather was much nicer back then. Even the longtime inhabitants are starting to complain.

Forrest For the Trees · Wed Sep 28, 2011 7:43 pm

Still hot as Hades. Why do I live down here?

Weston · Post by **Weston** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 7:50 pm

I've got to update my profile, but we moved to Washington recently. I'm on the dry side of the state however. Today was the first day that really felt like autumn was finally here; trees starting to turn color (honey locust is always the first to yellow out and drop leaves) cold in the morning, warm afternoon, and cooling down fast. The air smells like football, apple crisp, and Sam Adam's Octoberfest. I was able to wear my jacket for most of the day. Fall...bring it on!

Japan is cooling down too....25 degrees today, but fresh since the humidity has dropped...Colder at night..Almost "cold"..Lovely weather..Jackets will be in once the sun goes down I should think...I love this time of year..

Post by **Tennessee Smith** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 8:39 pm

Well, I enjoyed my striated lamb for a few mornings lately but the tempts have been climbing through the day so it's carried to my truck by days end.

Hollowpond · Post by **Hollowpond** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 8:44 pm

Been warm here but getting a little jacket wear in the afternoons with the doors off the Jeep. Going to a night football game Saturday (Go Pirates!!!) And its supposed to be low 40's! Loving it!!!!

tmurph · Post by **tmurph** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 9:13 pm

Humid and felt like around 90 here today. This weekend is looking good though high 70s lows 47.

Doctor_Jones · Post by **Doctor_Jones** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 11:04 pm

too hot in belgium during the day but at night it cools right off and it's always nice to have your indy jacket in the back of your car, just waiting to be put on.

Texan Scott · Post by **Texan Scott** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 11:46 pm

Some of you guys are breakin' my heart with your optimal jacket weather!

WConly · Post by **WConly** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 11:55 pm

Well the for most of the last week and one half we had weather that was most accomodating for wearing my leather jackets (early mornings to mid day...then evenings/nights) but, being Kansas this past couple of days it has warmed up again, so dash the leather. However, I have it on good authority that more 'leather weather' is on the way (source: My Hopes, Desires and Dreams, a division of Wish Come True, Inc.). It is supposed to cool back down in the next few days. All one can do is wait it out and see. Been ok for Fedora's though. So, not all has been left out of the mix. W>

My forecast is 54 on Saturday. Ha! I win! I win jacket weather!

Actually it's been around 50 every morning when I leave for work, but then I leave at 5 a.m.

afterthedog · Post by **afterthedog** » Thu Sep 29, 2011 8:30 pm

We had one evening here in Colorado that was jacket worthy a couple of weeks ago, but it has been high 80s every day since. It's cooled off a little the past couple of days, but I hear it's warming up again, though.
It won't be long now, though.

First taste of quality jacket weather this morning, accompanied by the Monarch butterflies that migrate just before the front.

WConly · Post by **WConly** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 11:37 pm

Well...today again good news -- I was able to wear my black Wested Raider's Goat to the Hospital to do my rounds there. Topped off with a grey raider's fedora and black Alden's -- wonderful morning indeed! Warmed up this afternoon, but tonight has been great again. Hoping the weather predications are right for tomorrow (Sat) and I, once again, will be back in business. Yahoo! W>

scot2525 · Post by **scot2525** » Sun Oct 02, 2011 2:36 pm

Jacket weather here has been hit and miss. Just about every morning for the past two weeks I wear a jacket to work but by lunch time it is no longer needed until after sunset. Tomorrow looks like it will be a jacket day all day, low 36 F- high 72 F but then lows jump into the 50's and high's back into the 80's for the rest of the week.

Post by **Indiana Jeff** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 4:31 am

As of 11:30 a.m. local time the temp is 36C/97F. Pretty much the same once the sun goes down too.

Indiana Jeff

Ick, Jeff.

A little frost on the car again today, so I'll get to wear a jacket to work today. $\:D/$

Yeah, but I look at it this way, I can swin outdoors on New Year's Day.

Down here in Florida, jacket weather is finally here at long last!!!! 50's at night, 70s/80's during the day...

*Ach*...Did I even get to wear my jacket last winter? I can't even remember...

Post by **Dr. Nebraska S.** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 2:36 pm

Although we've mostly been in the 90's for at least the past month, this week is finally cooling off into the 60's. So, out comes the Expedition! $\:D/$

WConly · Post by **WConly** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 3:00 pm

Well after a couple of weeks with jacket-yes, jacket-sort of...we are now back into the mid to upper 80's for days for a while, so no go except in the evenings again. But there is always hope for a longer strain of perfect cool weather. W>

Wore one of my Expeditions Saturday, as a matter of fact. Wearing my Wings lambskin today.

Everyone is running to get out of the rain today while I comfortably walk wearing my Penman gray and TN CS treated in Obenaufs.

I love how this hat just shed the water and holds it's shape.

Hot and sunny doesn't quite capture it. You forgot, "Dry with a chance of Fire!"

Well, we made it to Virginia Saturday. Stopped of at Monticello Saturday evening and got to wear my jacket properly. Yesterday we went to Busch Gardens and I wore a hoody and froze my backside off. Afterwards I was frozen to the bone and wore a t-shirt, hoodie and my USW SL. That was nice and kept me warm. Now I think that sweater he wore in MotB looks pretty sweet and will be part of my collection Lord willing.

Great jacket weather today.

Low 40's and rainy. Decided to whip out the new G&B goat for a spin...

Post by **Michaelson** » Thu Oct 27, 2011 1:53 pm

Cool down headed our way now. The G&B veg. goatskin got the nod today.

Post by **Dr. Nebraska S.** » Thu Oct 27, 2011 2:06 pm

We're finally getting some days below the 80's this week (although we're right back up there this weekend), so I've finally been pulling out my G & B this past week. Hopefully, autumn will be here to stay in So. Cal.

It's not that we don't have 4 seasons here in southern California--they're just a different set of four:
1. Warm
2. Hot
3. Rain
4. Night

Best wishes,
Nebraska Schulte
