Harvard Today: Oct. 4, 2013

It’s the first weekend of October after a week that felt like anything but fall. Make the most of what is mostly still nice weather with a picnic—or at least by studying for those midterms outdoors.

IN THE ATMOSPHERE

Expect another pleasant weekend with temperatures in the low-to-mid 70s and partly cloudy skies to match. There might be some showers on Saturday morning, but overall, these are another few days to enjoy before the temperatures start to dip.
