Summer Weather 2016

Man_0_Man do we need rain. My pond is easily a foot and a half low

Drive 3hrs south..It's a swamp here..

Whoa, no kidding. We're 2" below normal so far. Could here my grass crunching while mowing my weeds the other day.

Wow finally a down pour. Nothing showing on radar either. Just a solid 10 minute sunshower.

Somehow that front passed last night and didn't drop a bit of rain here. I actually put a dripping hose under our big maple yesterday, it was looking severely parched.

I hope this pattern does not continue through the winter.

Seat of the pants barometer...... I have/had a bunch of rose plants. They used to survive the winter nicely for years. Lately with very little winter precip they've been dying off.

got a nice little rain come through up in the great green north - passed through about 4AM. I was awakened by flashes of lightening but no thunder.

It's nice and cool tonight...with more cool nights toncome this week.  The cool breeze feels awesome coming through the window as I lie in bed and type this...  Here's to colder and colder nights!!  

summer is over.

It's been in the 40's the past two mornings here in the Valley.

Just saw an interesting fact on the weather. August was the warmest month ever in 130 years of record keeping (tied with July) and the last 11 months have each been record breakers for warmth.

keep that bike tuned up

Does look to be a repeat of last falls warmth.

How far out you willing to look Jason?

I will look 84hrs out...Like the guys over at Open Snow mentioned...Long Range is just for shits and giggles..
Last season's long range was a total bust..so my guess is the same as yours for this upcoming winter...

Just remember  Oct snow is bad juju...

Man you're not kidding --- we had October snow last year and that was it!

I'd love snow starting Nov 19th tho....

I thought last season's long term was decent. I remember a late start to winter with a mixed prognosis after that.

It was suppose to be a decent winter..we had 3 or 4 days of brutal cold . then ugatz ..worst winter in many many moons..

I don't remember optimistic forecasts last fall. I remember warm forecasts and warm weather.

39 degrees in the Valley this morning ----- getting close

me too.  the long range I follow have been pretty damn accurate the last couple years...
