Clouds here last night. Hope this eve will be good.

3 x-flares with 3 CME's coming together for what could be another event similar to May of last yr.

Busted. N flow dominates. Some sn shwrs around the Lakes.

I've been having snow shwrs in my area since yesterday. Dusting in town this morning.

And so it begins (on the MN Deer Hunting opener) on Sat. YAH U Betcha! Saturday A chance of snow, mainly after noon. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 37. Calm wind becoming southwest around 5 mph in the morning. Saturday Night A slight chance of snow before midnight. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 22. Northwest wind 5 to 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Sunday A chance of flurries. Partly sunny, with a high near 36. Northwest wind around 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Sunday Night Partly cloudy, with a low around 20. Northwest wind 5 to 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Monday Mostly sunny, with a high near 36. Northwest wind 5 to 10 mph.

Wind adv out for today for strong SW winds. Leaves are blowing around pretty good. Last few days, lots of tweety flocks, and even a few geese flocks moving through.

Roller coaster pattern with precip mainly confined to N areas of the sub, and some LER/S for early Nov is what it looks like. Hoping mid month will see some decent organized stuff. I have something possible for Veteran's day on the 11th, and the pattern mid month may produce something worth talking about.

0.63" for Oct is pretty paltry. 10th driest on record. Warm month; max 58.7 (+0.5=59.2) avg 53.9/ min 41.9(+2=43.9) avg 37.9 for 7am readings. 10th warmest Oct.

Not too bad. LP in the E with another weak LP moving in from the NW with some shwrs, and LER (some mix possible).

Unless of course I start one for my area just to throw that off.

Prayers for the Jamaican people. Absolutely perfect storm, but when I watch the sat image, I also know death, and devastation are underway. My heart breaks for the people.

This thing could absolutely destroy Jamaica. Pray for it to go around either side, and weaken at the same time. Incredible storm!

Sept had some notable action as far as temps, and precip, but what a slow, mellow Oct. Well, here's to a active Nov

Valentine's n President's day are close this year. Stm potential with colder afterwards is possible.

GHD timeframe needs to be watch for stm potential.
