Rain,rain,rain. All from hurricane Delta. Rain for the next two days. We have had a dry spell for the past two weeks so we could use a little rain but not so much all at once.Thankful there is no wind.

Glad to hear your getting needed rain, only got just a ultra light mist here, just enough to crank the humidity up and some mild wind from Delta.
If you quote me do the @TX98Z28 in your text or I won't be notified of your quote, Thanks.
All the leaves are turning here. It is beautiful. Oaks are red and gold, the hickorys are yellow, poplars are rust, the sumac are vibrant red, and the maples are red and gold also.The trees at the top of ridges are loosing their leaves and we got a frost tomorrow night. Things they are a changin'
When we moved from Alaska to Kentucky in '68, one November morning I woke up and there was snow on the ground. Maybe an inch and a half. Finally, I thought, a frosting of snow. Went out on the porch in my robe to check it out. Do I need boots? Nah, so I just put on my loafers.
Walked to school, about a mile. It was weird, on the way there seemed to be no one about. When I arrived at school, there was no one there! No bus tracks in the snow. No nothing!
I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone. What the heck was this all about? No one, anywhere! I turned around and headed back home, puzzling over it. Perhaps the Baptists were right, and there really was a rapture! I got left out! Well, no surprise there, God knows what you think, and therefore I was probably doomed. What next?
When I got home, the reality was even stranger than my imaginings. School had been cancelled. For this? Last year I waded through snow up to my belly button to get to school.
Thus I got my first lesson in relativity. It's all about what you're used to. And prepared for.

Another cool front came through 56'F currently, might make 48-49 by 6-7 AM tomorrow. The leaf's are 25% down, 75% to go, I'll spend 2 hours blowing them and all the flower beds out tomorrow before mowing.

Finally getting a little rain been over 60 days since anything of significance. Will help the farmers, buddy has 11 ponds with only three that are usable for watering cattle. Had to fire up the fireplace also.

Still in the mid 90's during the day but dropping down into the mid 50's at night. They are saying we might get some rain this weekend which we really need
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt
Still snowin.... mixed with freezing rain. Question of the day: How many plows does it take for the Alaskan DOT to remove 2 inches of snow off 2 lanes of highway so there's nothing left but glare ice?
The correct answer is 8. Moving at 25 miles an hour during the morning commute. Alaska DOT. Motto: We inconvenience as many people as we can for as long as we can.
I'm still troubled by what I did for that Klondike bar...

I think he was talking about storm surge... 👴🏻

I hope you send some of the rain this way, we have been in a drought for months. Whenever there is a storm coming through it goes south or west of us.
Beautiful partly cloudy 75 today!

Fall's over. Winter's here. Woke up to this.
68° here today, heavy rain expected tonight...maybe.
A beautiful day, except for the rain.

That. Is. Terrifying.
We are not even in November.
You'd have to be a yeti to survive in that place.

Snow. Just snow.
70° and sunny with almost no humidity.
Mid 40's at night and high 60's in the day. Low humidity and clear Carolina Mt. blue sky. Leaf colors are beautiful right now.
RAIN
Fountain is overflowing. Streets are flooded. Flash flood warnings on the TV.
Did I mention that it has been raining?
Rain? In Florida?

TS 28 is part of the reason that the rain has not stopped here. Been raining since we got back Tuesday
A nice 72 F but only 6 % rH. Not sure why so dry, maybe all the winds, it's giving me a real static charge today.
