The air's still a bit humid, but it's becoming cooler. A chilly breeze blows in from the ocean, along with a few clouds to block out the sun and make it even cooler. It's almost time to pull out your sweaters!

Setting of Calista Falls
Calista Falls is not a very large town, but it isn't small either.
Setting of Helios Beach
A bit of a drive from Calista Falls is Helios Beach, located on the West coast. To get there from Calista Falls you have to drive through a bit of a forest, but over all, it's not a horribly long ride; it usually takes about half an hour to forty-five minutes to get there.
The beach itself is quite lovely. It doesn't stretch too far, only about three-quarters of a mile until it morphs into cliff. As you go more inland you notice that the town itself seems to almost be built into the forest. The trees circle the town, which doesn't have a ton of buildings save for a few homes and stores along the trees, as well as a town hall and community center.
Even more into the trees you will find the Heliosente Reservation, home to the Heliosente Native American tribe. The majority of the homes and buildings built here were made by those that live in them. Everywhere you go in this part of town has a certain feel to it, reflecting on the past and culture of the Heliosente people. The high school is located towards the center of the reservation.

While still chilly during the earlier part of this season, springtime in Calista Falls is often noted as the best time of the year. The snow melts as it warms up, and the landscape becomes full of color as flowers bloom. It rains quite a bit during the spring, but the humidity isn't too horrible because it's not as hot as the summer time.
Summer
Hot and humid are two words that describe Calista Falls' climate during the summer. Because of how the two are together, it's often described as miserable during these short couple of months. It doesn't help that every so often it pours rain, adding onto the already high amount of moisture in the air.
Fall
In the fall it begins to cool down quite a bit. The humidity is still present in the earlier parts of the season, when the leaves are slowly turning to the brilliant colors characterized by the Fall; however, it lowers to a more pleasant level towards the end of the season. At times it can rain quite a bit, more than in the summer but less than in the spring.
Winter
Wintertime is also described as one of the prettier times of the year. It snows in mid winter, and the snow stays put until the mid-beginning of spring. It can sometimes get very cold, and the humidity is at its lowest this time of the year.
Helios Beach Climate
Spring
Spring's quite lovely on Helios Beach. Things are still a bit chilly in the beginning, but things quickly warm up as warm winds blow in from the ocean. It may rain every so often, but its usually left over clouds blowing in from Calista Falls.
Summer
Helios Beach is your typical beach during the summer. There's rarely a cloud in the sky, and the sun is always beating down. It can get quite hot sometimes, but the ocean breeze helps in cooling things down. Mid-summer it gets relatively humid.
Fall
The weather at the beginning of fall is much like the summer; the only way to tell is how the leaves start to change color. The air becomes chillier during mid autumn, and only continues to cool down as it goes on.
Winter
Ocean winds help to make already cold air that much colder during the winter season. On the shore it does not snow, but it may snow a bit more inland.
