Or would staying into autumn make catching a gale more likely or does it matter? Getting steadily cooler now and expecting rain this coming Friday. Light bulb went on over my head lol. We should just go up to Shetland. |

I imagine a roaring, crackling log fire and a nice hot toddy go well with a gale. Just a thought. Perhaps just going up to Shetland we'd be assured of a gale. Long way. Days and especially nights getting steadily cooler; expecting rain this coming Friday. That'll make a change. Sue, glad you enjoyed San Francisco. Did you happen to take in Golden Gate Park?. Wonderful museum in that park. Naturally it was closed last time I was in SF.lol |

Perfect! That's all about to change though. A storm is moving in off the Pacific and will hit here tomorrow around noon with 35 MPH wind and gusts to 50MPH. Since it's been so long since we've had any rain, the expect a lot of blowing dust, maybe another haboob. Then rain overnight and a chilly weekend, but sunny.

| Linda-mary Sigley Posts: 195 Joined: 27th Jul 2010 Location: USA | Posted at 00:43 on 5th November 2011 The rain arrived on schedule. It is still Friday here so hats off to the weatherman. Raining in morning and still light rain at fiveish. Prior to today the rainfall total was 00. Possibly .50 by time the 11 o'clock news comes on. Fellow POE member Brenda Harvey had snow last weekend. She sent me comparison photos from 1 week before snow then 1 from a week later. Fall colors in first one and her grandchildren out in a fairyland of white branches but just a low white carpet of snow on the ground. That's fun snow. Wherever you are Ruth you really get powerful windstorms. Is a haboob the name of a wind? Sounds Arabic. |

| Sue H Posts: 8172 Joined: 29th Jun 2007 Location: USA | Posted at 14:53 on 6th November 2011 Lots of snow today  . |
| Linda-mary Sigley Posts: 195 Joined: 27th Jul 2010 Location: USA | Posted at 23:14 on 6th November 2011 Rain here and in the 50's. Snow on the mountains we can see from our front yard. |
| Ruth Gregory Posts: 8072 Joined: 25th Jul 2007 Location: USA | Posted at 21:30 on 13th November 2011 Broken clouds right now at 2:30 PM and about 68°F. It was BEAUTIFUL today, overcast and slightly drizzly off and on all day. No wind, and a couple of sun showers. Forecast for the rest of the week - sunny every day and temps in the low 70s F. Perfect!!
