Rubus Leucodermis

0.29". Starting to really come down now. 58˚F. 55/59˚F for the day.

Hardly. In much of the Rockies, lows would mostly be in the 30’s and 40’s F (if not the 20’s) by this stage. Face it, you just live in a subtropical swamp.

A mild 55°F for a low overnight. Now getting a few sprinkles. Radar seems to indicate it should get heavier soon.

Now 63˚F after an overnight low of 49˚F.

46/72˚F for the day here.

My condolences on being gypped out of another touchdown.

I think most of us here, at one time or another, have gone into full-on weenie mode about an imminent rug pull, only to be proven wrong. For me, it was the evening of 8 Feb 2019.

Thin fog and 46˚F.

52/66˚F for the day here.

November being super-warm is a bit of a bummer, but it really doesn’t mean much if a September snowfall melts completely away. Temperature norms in September and much of October just do not favor snowpack that builds. More generally, while people here wish it when there’s a cold fall, there just does not seem to be that much correlation between temperatures in October and those in midwinter. Not in this part of the world, at least. The one thing that is meaningful is the amount of precipitation most of us have recently received. It is going to be very hard at this stage for things to get thoroughly dried out until next spring or summer. (And once you get as far north as I am, it is basically impossible at this stage.) Fire season is over.

Yup. I have seen September snow hit the mountains many times. I do not think I have ever seen it last into winter, except at the highest elevations. There is always a warm spell that then proceeds to melt the vast majority of it.

55˚F after an overnight low of 53. Looks like several days of prime early autumn weather coming up.

Won’t matter for fire season purposes. Days will be too short, and sun angles too indirect, for much drying.

Good riddance, fire season!

Grounds crew is mowing the lawns today. First time they have had to do that since late last June.
