Still sunny, but now I am tripping the heat on in the morning for a quick shot to warm up my feet before breakfast. I'll prolly go to 'all systems off' after.
I'm expecting the clouds to roll in as the day progresses, as tomorrow's forecast is all-out rain.

The cloud cover didn't roll in until evening and I went to bed without the rains starting. However, I awoke at fourish in the early morning to the trampling return of Murray, who was as wet as an unsqueezed sponge, providing proof that the rains has manifested. He, of course, wanted to curl up with his warm and dry hoomin.

Minor frost at night, crisp in the early morning and nice and warm from 11 to about 17.

Rain. Real rain. Steady, wet, windless. It is more than the usual, but not gullywasher in intensity.
*sigh*
I remember when we had weeks on end of this.
ETA: After a day of steady rain, we got the gullywasher late this afternoon.

The weather report is for 'mostly cloudy', but I'm dodging sunblasts whilst catching up with gardening let lapse during the rains.

Mostly sunny, but cool.
The felines are in a snit, Cleo, mostly, about the doors being shut and having to request to go in or out. Along with the rain. Murray has already pried open the back door in the midst of a need to do a midnight foray in the back garden. He can do that if the door is not securely latched; thumbs, y'know. Of course, having got out, he could not get back in. He fairly shot through the balcony door when I opened it first thing in the morning and subsequently disappeared for some hours. I suspect he slunk away upstairs to snooze where it was guaranteed warm. As I button up for the coming bad weather, I'll have to make a point of checking in to their 'under the bench' hideout to make sure that it is 'adequate'.

Finally...A sunny day from daybreak on through.
The French doors are open and Cleo is, at least temporarily, happy.

It's crap here and it's only going to get worse. To quote Eliot - 'the stubborn season has made stand'.
In other words, it's going to be dark, cold and shitty for months and months.

Yes, that is what Samhain is all about. It is the beginning of winter.

The day is dawning wet and soggy. Yeah, that's redundant, but so's the rain.

A warm but wet day yesterday. Overcast today, but dry. Rumored to have a couple of sunny days in the near future.

Full sun; not a cloud in the sky. Gusting winds and on the cool side, though. The streets are littered with dead leaves.

It's fall weather here. It hasn't gotten below freezing yet, but it's coming --next week probably.

The Pineapple Express is dumping shiploads of water as rain over the region. We're to expect two plus inches of rain in the next 24 hours, and we're the sub-region with the lowest total rainfall in the region. It is expected to be nearly 7 inches of rain in Tillamook, on the coast. I trust the dairy farmers there will get the galoshes on the cows.

So...Day two of incessant heavy rains. The back garden is awash with standing water. It is warm enough that the French doors can stand ajar, so the fuzzwads are busy making new toebean prints all over the hard floor surfaces (wood, vinyl, linoleum). A the moment, Cleo is hanging on the porch of the garden shed, where she is reasonably dry, but she can also continue to direct her semi-permanant glower at the house. Murray has been out and returned soaking wet; like a wet sponge.

Light frost overnight; the first I've seen. High dry clouds with a cool light breeze.

Do you have any flooding in your region? Vancouver seems to have been hit pretty bad.

Really? I had not heard. Flooding has been light around here, so far as I know. Bremerton, on the southwest side of Puget Sound, got hit pretty hard with three feet of water in the middle of town.
Checking the news report seems to show that the bulk of the Pineapple Express moisture stream slammed in to Washington and southern British Columbia. We down south here in Oregon got enough to overload our sewerage system and taint the river through town with overflow releases. The turd races are on! But, marginal, compared to along the border.

Fog. Pretty heavy for these parts, too. I suspect that as it burns off, we'll experience some blue skies. It is cold, and with the fog it's a damp cold.

It's cold here. Which given that it's nearly December is not surprising.
