60 here now but it's "chilly" 60. 68 by tomorrow and now it's 73 by Friday.
Sort of like here at the moment........ been this way for the last 3 weeks,below normal temperatures of up to to -10 degrees C at night and we are lucky if gets above freezing during the day with a little bit of snow in for good measure definately below normal conditions during winter! It hasn't been this cold for about 6 or 7 years or since the last La Nina type winter........supposed to warm up greatly next week.........hopefully :yes:Quote:

From Winter to Summer. Thispast weekend, subfreezing temps and snow. Today I wear a tee shirt and bask in 60+ degree temps with all traces of winter vanished. I put the AC and the fans on this afternoon for the first time since October.. Over the weekend winter returns for one or two days followed by another 5 day bout of "summer". It's just a natural cycle. ;)
Hit 72 TODAY! Still calling for 74 tomorrow but the potential for 76 is there. If I can get up early enough I may take the bike out for a spin.
You guys are having better weather back there than we're having in San Diego:
Showers and possibly a thunderstorm before 10pm, then a chance of showers. Low around 50. Southwest wind 5 to 10 mph becoming northwest after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 90%.
Unlash the moorings and set sail. Shiver some timber, or some such stuff, I dunno.....
Oh, you might get to the Carolinas in time for summer though, unless you put the boat on a trailer and truck it out :snicker:
sun came out today
I'd probably have to. Going around Cape Horn would take forever and since Panama took over the canal they've discouraged the passage of small boats. Too bad, really, that was on my bucket list.Quote:

After studying a tsunami inundation map for the area, I'd probably just have to motor out into San Diego Bay about a mile until the wave passes. The risk from tsunamis here is not nearly as severe as it is up your way.Quote:

Global warming is obviously a lie, since it's going to be 50 degrees F in the "Snow Capitol of the US" tomorrow.
Well, it is January after all :spin:
I have 74 here. Counties east of me are ranging from 76 to 79.
It has been a bit chilly here. 43 for a high yesterday, 48 today, and the same is forecast for tomorrow.
Tonight's low ... 53ºF. 11.6C.
You got San Diego beat: "Mostly cloudy, with a low around 49°F. Calm wind becoming east around 5 mph. "Quote:

Another series of big storms will hit California with high winds and heavy rain starting late tonight or early tomorrow and continuing for the next six days. This time, the atmospheric river is aimed more at southern California, so things might get exciting down here--the National Weather Service is predicting between 4 and 10 inches of rain in San Diego County, depending on location. Just to put things in perspective, the average annual rainfall in SD is 10 inches.
At least you're already on a boat.
Actual text from the local office of the National Weather Service's forecast discussion:
A final northerly wave seems to move through Tuesday extending the showers, which might include snow in the high desert. The numbers are ridiculous; total rainfall for the entire period today through Tuesday: 2-5 inches in coast and valleys, 5-10 inches in the mountains with a few spots exceeding 12 inches
If your far enough out in the sea your boat will simply ride out the tsunami. In fact you might not even notice it. You can even be swimming and just ride over it. The real problem / danger is when the tsunami reaches the shallower coastal line waters and of course when it hits the shoreline.Quote:

Looks like it's going to stay mild for at least another week or more.Next winter-like day isn't scheduled till next saturday.Quote:

The way San Diego is getting rain, he maybe riding the tidal wave right by you.
Hey, could you guys down there put the stoppers back in the reservoirs and catch some of this rain for later on?
Wait till Trump starts burning all that coal.
Hard to say what's going on here... it's the end of January. It's not cold out and we'll have rain for the next 8 hours.
WTF?!?!?
Spring is here.
Oooohh you have that creepy weather thing on your computer too. Here's mine - except my screen capture software apparently isn't as good as yours.
Hit alt+print screen.
Pull up Paint.
Click on the clipboard.
Click on File.
Click on Save As.
Choose name and location.
It's all already on your system if you're a Windows user.
All I get is a blank thing. This is why I hate computers. And here I wanted to try to set up a packet station for something to do..........I must be nuts.
Alt & print screen, all as you say, nothing but a white box. I'm too stupid to figure it out right now. Maybe I need to tip over and quit messing around in the bit bucket.....try again later on.
Have a great day Charles, enjoy your Spring!
