In A Chipper Mood Over Cooldown Ahead

Thanks to Don Turney of Ooltewah who sent in this awesome picture of a chipmunk in his front yard. Don must have a great camera to catch this little fella filling his cheeks.
There's a couple of chipmunks that live in our backyard. It's fun to watch them scurrying around throughout the day. There's acorns, and hickory nuts back there but we supplement the feedbag with corn. We put it out all year long and as a result we get to see squirrels, chipmunks, raccoons at night, and the occasional deer.
I've never heard any weather folklore with chipmunk references. Maybe because they're so small and quick.
At any rate I imagine Alvin and the rest of the chipmunks will be busy filling their cheeks today with warm highs into the mid 80s, ready to hunker down when it turns chilly this weekend. Morning lows will likely end up between 40 to 45 in the higher elevations and some spots away from the city. In Chattanooga, look for morning temps around 48 both weekend mornings. We should end up around 70 with sunny skies Saturday, mostly sunny and 73 on Sunday.
That should put most people in a chipper mood. Enjoy!
