Fine Weather.

It ain't perfect fall.  There has been an afternoon wind west of town.  Today it was more of a morning wind.  Patches of autumnal fog aren't bad.  Sun is warm in the afternoons.  It is October for sure.  Looks like we have a mix of warmth and some coastal winds over the next few days.  It hit 75F on the Municipal Wharf this afternoon, and tomorrow looks even warmer.  Although a strong afternoon wind might keep that warmth at bay.  Expect highs in the mid 70s Saturday and low 70s Sunday.

The we see a warming trend through the middle of next work week.  We could be into low 80s for Wednesday and maybe even Thursday.  Heck, maybe even Tuesday.  But through all of that period we have some moderate to strong NW afternoon winds.  Strong on the weekend, especially Saturday afternoon, and maybe Monday afternoon.  Just enough breeze to help cool things a bit.  As we head toward Wednesday, we could see light winds and warmer days.  All in all, the weather is looking west to end the month.

Looking out at the seven, 10 and 16 day charts, we are looking t continued fine autumn weather.  We might even find ourselves under a settled high pressure the first full week of November.  That would mean some warm and calm weather.  Both the North and South Pacific continue to send moderate swell to the region.  Northwest swell is peaking this evening and will ease tomorrow. It was overhead just west of town today.  Overlapping Southwest swells are easing and building through the weekend and more NW due Monday.

Garden is going off.  Pole beans are climbing and it is almost Halloween.  Maybe I get a December harvest this year.  As long as the weather continues like this I will.  Favas are looking strong.  Broccoli are looking large.  Peas are flowering.  Older bean plants producing.  Kale is kale.  Beets and Carrots look promising.  All in all, we are having some fabulous growing weather.  Wish I had a mature indeterminate heathy tomato plant in my mix right now.  It would be going off.
