Torrential downpours might not be an ideal way to welcome October, but we all know this month holds some of the richest cultural happenings of the year. There are weird raves to attend, jazz shows to see, and some fine imported wines. There'll be wild parties at the AMNH and the chance to nerd out with your friends (on multiple levels). October is quite possibly the prettiest time of year, and "life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall," so grab a jacket (eventually) and hit the streets; it's time to make some plans.
