From the looks of that radar screen of Mags it looks like RR you might want to keep the snow blower handy. Cloudy cold and wet here. There sayin it is headed towards the teens later in the week. YUk

I am way ahead on winter prep this year. Snowblower gassed up and ready to rock. Stock tanks all set up with heaters. All the brush cut that drifts snow. Wood shed full. Wooly chaps and wool coat by the back door. Bring it on.

Here in the PNW, I think we are at the tail end of it. For the next few days, supposed to be clearing up starting tomorrow with highs possibly in the low 70's.
Then there is something stirring in Alaska that seems likely to come down after that.

Hot and sunny here today. Low 60s for temps, but definitely t-shirt weather still. Supposed to be staying that way for another 7 days!

Mags, you weather guy is a pessimist!

There's pessimist, optimist and realist. I think realist. Here is a picture of what is out there a few days away.

Maybe I’m jaded? The native name for where I live is Semiamhoo, which translates as “hole in the sky”. It can be raining all around us, and sunny at my house. My brother moved to a place known as “rainy Hainy”, and would always complain. I started sending him videos that I took where I spun 360* with rain all around, and then panned vertical and it would always be blue over my place. He got fed up and moved to the high desert.

Cold here today and snow showers tonight temps in the 30's. We all complain about the weather when its to extremes we dont care for. I like to tease RR but its all in fun. He lives in a beautiful part of his country. But all of us seem to adjust one way or the other. Some move about to obtain better weather. I havent been able to do that yet. But one thing I am able to do is not let the weather control everything I want to do. I always seem to be able to find something I can get done.
