Still dry at 4 P.M., but rain fell all around us--heavily in some places. Such is the nature of the summer/early fall rains hereabouts. Just some flashes and rumbles so far.

The weekend was cool--81* Sunday and 76* today. 64* at 6:45 P.M., and the local bellwether of Fall's arrival came today--the return of the scrub jays to our back yard. They clear out and head up the mountain when it turns hot here, and don't come back until the weather suits their compression ratio--or something. They were back this afternoon, being their raucous and delightful selves while driving off the mockingbirds that go on shift when the jays clock out in July.
We had to close the bedroom windows about 3 A.M. last night, that low-50s air temp was too chilly for our summer covers.

Pulled boards for walleyes Monday and Tuesday for a total of about 9 hours. Landed 22 or there about's with one 1 legal keeper. Learned some new spots, working on refining my techniques. Running 3 lines all alone can be tricksome. Not great fishing weather. High clear skies NE wind on Monday ESE yesterday. But as Rick H says, great days to be alive. I could have fished today as I was staying with friends near the lake I fish but I got to frettin' over chores last night and opted to come home.
Getting ready for Fall then Winter has alot of chores and it is so much easier to do them in nice weather and in an orderly fashion.

Generous entitlement payouts figure into the mix as well.
The weather has been a delight hereabouts, as Walks alludes to.

Mid 70s right now and a bit drizzly. Good. Spoiled now; don't like going more than 2 to 3 weeks without things getting well watered a time or two. May get some thunder showers over the next few days.

High Steppes of Eastern Washington
Fall here in the high steppes; rain in the mountains is tamping down the 125,000 acre fire and air quality is getting a lot better. Lows in the 30's, but not hard frost, and highs in the 60's and sun 10 hours a day. Life is good here now.

A bit warmer today, very clear outside with low humidity and light to moderate NNW-NW breezes. Classic "Santa Ana"/"Santana" wind conditions. The clear air is nice, but the warm winds and low humidities are fire conditions of the first rank.
"Santa Ana" is what Angelenos call these conditions; longtime locals out east where we live call them "Santanas". The genesis of the word is likely Anglicized Spanish--"Alientos de Satanas", "hot breath of Satan". Given their heat and accompanying brush and forest fire behaviors, this source gets my vote as most likely.

California's Central Coast Amid The Insanity
It's October, my favorite month, so the the overcast and fog will minimize before disappearing and being replaced by plentiful sun, a clear sky, and a gentle breeze.
Currently it is 66-degrees, humidity is 68% and there is a 4 mph breeze. My idea of weather perfection.
