With high temperatures in the lower 50's on Friday in The Berkshires, it's surely feeling like fall. The autumnal equinox arrived on Thursday and some folks are psyched and some are a little depressed.

October will be here before you know it, and the tenth month of the calendar year is sure to satisfy.

5 Things Massachusetts People Can Look Forward To In October

1. The Boston Red Sox Being In The World Series.

Not this year, in fact, they'll most likely finish in DEAD LAST. The last time that happened? 2015. They'll be back. If you're a Yankees fan, though, you may be in good shape.

2. Leaf Peeping.

Peak fall foliage in Massachusetts can be found right smack in the middle of October. Enjoy!

3. Pumpkin Spice Everything/Pumpkin Beer.

I think pumpkin flavored everything starts in like July now, (kidding), but it seems to get earlier and earlier every year. For beer lovers, Shipyard and Sam Adams are popular. Love those sugar coated rims!

4. Halloween/Salem, MA.

Trick-or-treating, costumes and candy and people flooding into Salem!

5. Billie Joe From Green Day Can Wake Up Now.

Their big 2005 hit "Wake Me Up When September Ends" couldn't be clearer. He wants you to let him sleep until Oct. 1!
