What October feels like
October is patio season in Cooper-Young and Overton Square, and the Cooper-Young Festival packs the neighborhood shoulder to shoulder. Nights turn cool enough for a jacket by the end of the month, and the trees in Overton Park turn late.
Expect about 5 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. Humidity stays comfortable; the air never feels heavy.
