Seattle's outspoken atmospheric scientist proclaims that it's upon us:

here in Big Sky its happening.
No turn here in Eagle County and the butthurt is rising rapidly.
^^^ yep.
Just checked, butt hurts.
Alot.
The weather has turned here, but come on, this is Southern CA. Home of the most beautiful November weather in the Northern Hemi. I was absolutely amazed at what an awesome day yesterday was, when I was out walking my dogs down along the beach. About 55 degrees, sunny and the surf was so fun looking. Thank baby jeebus for surf until the snow finally flies at Mammoth.
Saw birds flying south in SLC yesterday. Also heard that the Elk were bugling in Jackhole over the weekend...that's early.
We are no where close. I will get back to you in 5-6 weeks, I hope.
I hope it starts here in the next two or 3 weeks.
I have been waiting for someone to bump this. I have felt it too.
It's the drought.
We have had a fairly moist summer...
felt.
the feeling not the fabric..
Not here!Quote:

I meant to bump this last night for the huddles masses, yearning to ski again. Xover was mostly gone when I first found this place but this remains probably my favorite single post on this board. I've been feeling it this last week finally so here's to the cold, snowy months ahead.
A few of the weaker aspens behind the house are starting to turn. Had a bit of frost late last week.
Should I buy those Icelantic Nomad RKR's?
Leaves are turning here in California. Because the trees are dying. Cottonwoods or whatever they are along Donner Lake are particularly hard hit, because the lake never filled this year. (But people have been enjoying the beach, which normally is only there in the winter.)
It "turned" something fierce in Seattle yesterday. Over an inch of rain and the wind knocked out power to around 500,000. Definitely felt more like a late fall or winter storm than our summer weather here. I thought we were out of the woods last night when it had calmed down only to have my power go out around 9:00 pm. Came back on overnight, luckily. I'm hoping the rain does a lot to hep the wildfire situation on the east side of the state.
2nd that...Quote:

The creek is actually running again for the first time in months.
A Biblical deluge here last night; the trees are drinking deeply.
What are the reports from the Okanagon and Chelan? Was there enough rain there to quell the fires?
August is my least favorite month in CA. Good riddance here in another day. September is a touch better but it's really a slightly cooler and damper extension of August with fewer hours of daylight. Yes this is a generalization.
There really are only two seasons here. Wet and dry. I'm ready for the turn to wet but it's still a ways off.
Agreed that it feels like the Turn in Seattle. We're cleaning up branches in the yard and headed to the store for the ingredients for the year's first pumpkin pie.
Looking forward to October when the Turn is unstoppable.
