Saturday was always going to be sunny and warm. Forgive me for wanting rain when our entire state is in severe, extreme, or exceptional drought. 

😀

Saturday was not always a given up here.   Still right on the line.   We have months of rain ahead... there is nothing wrong with enjoying some nice weather when it comes our way.

Looks like this won’t be the last sunny, warm weekend of fall. Next Saturday…

That is a long way off and the ECMWF and EPS say it will be wet.

00z GEFS has consistently shown the Op to be a massive outlier after about Day 5.5 and hopefully that continues tonight.

Not sure about 850mb temps... but the 00Z GEFS looks fairly similar in terms of precip anomalies over the next 10 days.

The GFS is a wild outlier right now as compared to it's ensemble and the ECMWF suite of models.  Since the upgrade the operational has had it's moments of insanity.

I'm sorry to hear about that man, that really sucks.  It is certainly a reminder for me and my family to count our blessings with my daughter... as of now (knock on wood), her seizures are controlled with medication.  We know that at any point, that could change.  While she will have the occasional twitch that will send a utensil flying across the kitchen, and she most likely won't be able to have kids, at least the medications are working for now.

Honestly the scariest part for us right now is that her medications cost $2,000/month without insurance.  She turns 26 next year, which of course means she will fall off our insurance. 

Can they do anything with your implant to reign things in?  Is the implant still functioning properly?  When my wife worked in Cardiology, every once in a very great while they would have a pacemaker sh*t the bed prematurely and they would have to go in and do an early replacement.

 

You are very definitely in my family's thoughts.  Please take care of yourself and get plenty of rest.  Sleep (or lack thereof) is the number one trigger for my daughter's seizures.

Just have her come work with me. We need people, incredible benefits with either Aetna or Kaiser, great pay. Message me if you're interested in passing that along.

Sure is looking wet over the next 3 days here. By Sunday we should be near normal in terms of rainfall for the entire month of October 

Wish we could say the same. Gonna be a nice, cooler than normal month. Unfortunately for precip, we are at about half of where we should be by this point in Oct. Same old song and dance as it seems to be nigh impossible to have a cooler and wetter than normal month here anymore.

Mild morning... 53 at SEA.  

The main moisture plume is now parked just to the north of the Seattle area.   

Yes, it was quite a wet night up this way. Neighborhood gauge only reads 0.04" but I don’t trust that, given how it’s been coming down out there. 0.26" overnight at KBLI.

52˚F for the low here.

It's called clown range for a reason.

I will definitely mull that over.  Biggest challenge is with her not driving, she is reliant on us for transportation.  I get frustrated at times with her decision, but then again, if she builds a life around having a car and then started having breakthrough seizures, she is kinda screwed.  Her epilepsy has also kind of stunted her socially, so she doesn't have a lot of friends (which makes moving out with a group of friends tough).  I worked at a facility that had manufacturing, and she was able to get a job there and we would ride in together.  They were really good about finding her jobs that did not involve power tools and sharp objects and she loved it.  Before Covid, she was settling in, doing an awesome job and making friends (even had a boyfriend).  Covid screwed that up, but hopefully with my job situation settling down, and my wife about to figure out her work situation, we will be able to get her back working.

Monthly rainfall-3.56”

Warm season rainfall-11.14”

Max temp-88

+80 highs-2

+85 highs-2

Huskies, Cougars, Ducks, and Beavers all play at home tomorrow on what should be a spectacular Saturday.   October perfection!   Both of my sons are going to their respective games.
