How Early is Too Early for Fall Stuff in Washington State?

Before you start yelling and saying "Summer isn't over YET!" I know, highly aware, but the little chill I got this morning made me think of fall, and well so did Starbucks because they have brought back their Pumpkin Spice stuff.

First Official Day of Fall in WA: Saturday, Sept. 23rd, 2023

So how early is too early?! That's up to you. But there will be clues that it's upon us.

20 Washington State Signs It's Fall Time:
