Currently 46F and sunny but the fog is trying to take over. Looks like the high for today will be around 72F. 

Sounds quite warm there for late October. 

[LowerGarfield]

52F again but it comes with an asterisk. My 5 year old's school has conferences so I took the day off and didn't check until 8am when I usually check about 7:15/20am-ish.

I don't believe I've ever had fog in the upper 40's, but I suppose it depends on the exact conditions!

Supposedly Phil can have 80's and fog.

That is actually steam.

It's 61 here

[ShawniganLake]

45F with 1.22” of rain overnight

[TacomaWaWx]

Up to 60 after it was 49 early this morning. Ended up with 0.41” yesterday…0.10” this morning and 3.59” this month. Have been in a lull for several hours but the rain looks to be dropping south again.

I could tell you but then I would have to kill you.

Wow some nice systems into California on the 12z. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Picked up .20" of rain overnight with upslope drizzle. Temp rose from 47 at 9pm to 56 by 5am.

Would have never guessed, it's been a few years since anybody trick-or-treated by this neighborhood. Maybe the hill keeps people away.

[T-Town]

Looks like the AR has arrived here. 55 degrees. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Models look like November today... Going to enjoy the sunshine this weekend. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Stuff like this makes me all warm and fuzzy. 

[Timmy Supercell]

Sun is back out. I'm thinking there's a little less of this in KY overall (but still sunnier than Portland!). This town will wear you out in the sunshine department. 

[Randyc321]

Nice Fall scene outside the kitchen window this morning.  A warm 58 outside.  Rain has just started up.

It's cloudy in Spokane, but the sun is trying to peek out. It rained a little bit this morning.

Released in fall 1986. Terrible analog. Next.

You and me both. I won't see the sun much over the next 3-4 months.

This last rain completely missed southern Oregon. KMAX was seeing the very south end of it though towards central Oregon.

Dig that sucker down the coast. 

[SouthHillFrosty]

Vancouver snow storm!!!!

[TT-SEA]

The AR is a little farther south than was shown yesterday... likely going to see 4-6 inches of rain here by tomorrow morning from this event.    Already approaching 2 inches and it is absolutely dumping out there and this will go through early tomorrow morning.      Going to be some significant flooding in the Snoqualmie Valley.

Happens most every fall at some point in my area... we are going to be ground zero for this event.

No thank you. Our daily rainfall records are in the 1-2 inch range. 4-6 inches sounds apocalyptic.

[TT-SEA]

Hard to believe there is going to be wall-to-wall sunshine here all weekend given the deluge occurring now and after rain on 25 out of the last 28 days... but that is what the 12Z ECMWF is still showing.    Good timing at least.

Well... there is not much of a difference in tangible weather when it rains all day and you get 1 inch or when you get 4 inches.   Its very wet either way!

Yeah and our rainfall extremes are not from traditional PNW storms. Pretty sure some kind of supercell in the 60's or 80's hold our daily rain record.

It's going to be close for me if it verifies. But I have nothing to complain about.
