Getting reblooms on my
Clematis integrifolia.    
So am I, Gene, and quite a few. First time it's ever done that for me in about 5 years of growing it.  I also have C. jackmanii growing up a lamp post and a strong wind a couple months ago blew it all down.  I trimmed it pretty much to the ground. New shoots came up immediately and now have about a dozen blooms.  C. 'Josephine' has one new bloom as does 'MultiBlue'.  'Polish Spirit has a couple.  I've never seen all these clematis bloom in the fall before.  But it's the first summer we've had more or less adequate rainfall in a number of years.  Could that be it?  Or are they saying it's going to be a terribly severe winter in which we're all going to die and we want to bloom one more time?
