Fall officially arrives on the equinox. New England feels it first in the air. Cooler mornings, shorter days, and a storm brewing offshore. This week is not a gentle transition. Forecasters are watching a coastal system that could become a nor’easter right as temperatures tumble. For residents still in summer mode, that is a dangerous gap.
