Today is the Autumnal equinox! Today the sun will be directly over Earth's equator. This means everyone across the globe gets a day and night lasting approximately 12 hours each. For the northern hemisphere, the September equinox marks the official first day of fall. Although the dips in temperature and arrival of pumpkin spice treats may have already gotten you in the mood for the season.
Let’s say farewell to summer and welcome fall with some cozy tunes. For today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs that mention your favorite things about fall do you want to hear?
