Ahhhh....... the fun of living in the southwestern Unexplored Southern Area......all the unpredictable weather!Originally Posted by KJ6BSO
Our cold weather has gone away and the Pacific systems just do their seasonal routines....we are getting the rain and the not bad temperatures of 12 degrees C during the day,and dropping down to 6 degrees at night....typical for this time of year....
Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt! :roll:

I can't tell you how tempting that sounds after my enemy ice has decked me so many times. What's the crime like and how much Spanish do you need to know?
EDIT 1108AM EST: This is what it looks like half an hour ago. Just started. Got about 3-4" on the bannister outside right now.

From the NWS:
An intensifying storm will impact southern California early Monday through Wednesday of next week. This storm is likely to bring moderate to heavy precipitation, possible significant high elevation snow and gusty southwest to west winds to the area.
Kewl! We need it.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
After months of sweltering heat, humidity and hiding in air conditioned rooms I really don't mind the 3 months of winter that are just about upon us. Plus it saves me money on electric the less I have to run the fans and air conditioning. It's a lot quieter too. heating costs are not bad since I keep the thermostat down around 60 during the day and 55 at night. Right now it's 60 degrees in this office. I have the window open an inch or so and I am wearing a tee shirt.

Who has right of way there?
Looks like we are in for the same at the end of this week along with cooler weather...... 50 millimeters of rain forecast for the next 24 hours as well......

Looks like we got 6" (15cm) to 8" (20cm) in the storm. Not too bad. That's like slush is to NYC up here. A big storm can typically dump over 3 feet (+91cm) in a day or so.
EDIT: After clearing the steps, I checked and we really got about a foot or so. Not bad for a first storm.

Boring weather here, temps above normal to normal, one light night frost till now, maybe next week another few nights with temps just below 0 C, no snow nothing here...
This month will end up as month 11 as too warm....
We'll see what winter brings here at 53 North, last winter we had nothing, no frost no snow just temps too high...

We didn't get too much snow here, maybe 6-8" or so. That's because most of it came down as rain. But after sunset the temperature took a nosedive in the face of fierce driving northwesterly winds. The snow as coming down in torrents and horizontally from the extremely high gusts. for at least an hour it was a complete white out. But for this area this was a very mild storm. Almost like a gentle spring rain in tornado alley.

Sounds like the sort of weather we were getting back in the mid to late 80's. Blazing hot summers and very mild winters.
