The rain previously forecast for today has been removed – vanished into where ever erroneous forecasts go – and for now there is nothing in store for our area but sun and clouds, no precipitation, for what looks to be the next week and a half. Good enough.

Did read the ‘winter forecast for this coming season and it scares the heck out of me. Bitter cold, too much snow. Sounds like a nightmare winter on the way and I can only hope that this long range forecast isn’t any more accurate than our latest short term forecast. If it turns out to be right, I’m planning on hibernation mode big time. Frankly, we had a lousy spring, a similar summer and to have a wicked winter take aim at us certainly seems like overkill.  Not a happy camper.
