Beautiful sunny day today. High was 75°F. Looks like it will continue this way for the next couple days then a little cooldown.

My cousin just landed here, he is from western sydney where day time temps rarely fall below 15 degrees celcius and summer temps are pretty consistently above 30 and can get over 45C. It's Minus 17 today ..... hahahaaha take that mate.

Pretty nice for the first trek, -8°C (17.6°F)
It will be a good base if it doesn't rain on Sunday or Tuesday |

Well if they are right, we should have another 6" by the morning. Their last Snowfall Warning was a nothing burger...

Miserable rainy day weather. Whatever snow we had fall in the past few days is melting. Going to have some yo-yo temperatures for the next week or two with above and below freezing temps. Impossible to keep the car clean.

My contractor came in again to clear my laneway last night. It's going to be a real mess on Wednesday with forecasted T° of +8C and lots of rain.

Forecasters are calling for a strong Santa Ana wind event starting tonight (now) in to tomorrow, with gusts up to 55mph.
I have written before about the safe little pocket we live in where the Santa Anas seem to pass right over us. Hope that happens again tonight and tomorrow for us. The winds out here can be downright dangerous. I have watched full grown trees topple over in my back yard. It's part of life out here. The winds seem to be picking up. Let's hope they pass. |

We had 1/4 inch of gentle rain yesterday, which is good for our drought situation.
A bigger storm system is coming in on Wednesday, with highs forecast to be in the upper 50's F and 2+ inches of rain. After that, the forecast highs will be barely above freezing until the weekend.....

The overnight freezing rain on top of the 2" of snow made it easier to blow.
Could be all gone as they have 24hrs of rain stating at 4PM ![]() |

^^^^^ Bomb cyclone ^^^^^
The system already passed us late yesterday, dumping 1.21" of much-needed rain. Yesterday's highs in the low 60's F have been replaced with a high today of only 37 F and a steady 15-25 MPH wind as the low bombs up over the Canadian Maritimes. Glad that I don't live near my old stomping grounds in the snowbelts south of Buffalo, where they are under yet another state of emergency for 2-3 *feet* of lake-effect snow. The national news has a current story about a county plow flipping over a few miles from where I lived, which you need to remember are some of the biggest snow plows on the roads because of the crazy snow they get in that area until Lake Erie freezes over in January.....

Our forecast for last night was some rain and maybe 0.01 inches of ice. Woke up this morning to 4 inches of the white stuff.....
