49F, wet, 1.25" since midnight, windy with gusts to 40kts, supposed to get fierce later. The forecast has my favorite phrase "rain, heavy at times", 4"+- for Wednesday.
Checked the radar for a thin space this morning, then went grocery shopping, just finished unloading when it poured. Barked my right shin, three times, same spot, on the tow hitch, son of a #####!

33 deg., windy, sleeting (rain snow mix...), I can see snow in the hill above the house, Crummy needs a brake job and I don't have a shop to pull it into...

and the first master cylinder I put in was bad, so another trip down below for parts...

It stopped raining and it's below freezing here now

There saying a pretty good storm will be here thru Wednesday

I'm about 3/4 mile from salt water (as the crow fly)

Our high was 35 today, the low 34. Goodness, now they are saying some nasty gusts of wind for us tomorrow. I gathered up the "just in case the power goes out" gear today. We don' need no stinkin' generator. We got white gas appliances and a battery powered shower.

Hey Olympic YJ, there's a Blizzard Warning for White Pass tomorrow. But I hear you have a Jeep?
:cheers:

The weather guessers were pretty close with our weather, except we exceeded the projected rainfall amount by a bunch, the day ain't over yet. Currently pouring, winds at 44, gusts headed for the mid 50s. Preparing for the power to fail.

The barometer with the dial has run out of numbers. The electronic one says 28.05 and is still heading down. Kind of creepy, that.

The rain is occasionally slamming into the windows on the east side of the house. Hair is washed, dishes are almost done, and I parked the Tomato inside. Let 'er buck, I guess.

Good grief. That would be a Cat 5 hurricane in the GoM. I think I'll stay in East Texas. It's almost 11:00 pm here and a foggy 53 degrees outside. We could use some more rain.
